Fortis Leases 200-Bed Hospital in Greater Noida

02 Sep 2025 CW Team

The hospital, located on a 1.35-acre UPSIDA-leased land parcel with a built-up area of 270,000 sq. ft., has scope for expanding bed capacity by an additional 50 beds, bringing its potential to approximately 250 beds. Strategically positioned, the hospital is connected via the Greater Noida Expressway, Metro (Aqua Line), Yamuna Expressway, and Eastern Peripheral Expressway, and lies about 34 km from the upcoming Jewar International Airport.

This move enables Fortis to fully consolidate the hospital’s financials within its network and bolster its footprint in the rapidly urbanising NCR region. The Greater Noida area has witnessed sharp growth in population, residential development, and corporate presence in recent years, outpacing the existing healthcare infrastructure.
