The company said it will use the IPO proceeds to fund new centres, as well as for branding and marketing expenses.

IPO comes amid a shift in consumer spending towards preventive healthcare and wellness, driven by rising disposable incomes and growing health awareness.

Listing adds to an already busy year for India's IPO market, with potential blockbuster offerings from Jio Platforms and the National Stock Exchange of India also expected to test investor appetite.
