Fortis Malar-Will Become SRL Diagnostics; CMP Rs 83 In the on-going transition at Fortis, the Chennai based Malar Hospitals will move into Fortis Health and the entire diagnostics SRL division of Fortis will move to Fortis Malar. Thus Malar will become a diagnostics player like Dr Lal Pathlabs and Thryocare.
The current market cap of Rs 155 crore for Malar represents a single hospital, that was sold off by Dr. Sudha Ramamurthy to the Singhs. This super speciality hospital reports an EPS of Rs 3 and on that basis seems expensive. Post the transfer of diagnostics biz, the allotment of additional shares to the Fortis shareholders and to those of Malar, this entity should be worth atleast Rs 2000-3000 crore, with a PE in excess of 35. Ten years ago Malar used to quote at Rs 9, this is before Sudha's cardiologist husband died and the eldest daughter Madhi Malar got married to Sri Lankan star Muthiah Muralitharan.
