Fortis Healthcare Ltd. reported Q1 FY22 performance better than estimates driven by business recovery across hospitals and diagnostics, continued focus on cost optimisation and incremental upside from Covid-19 tests.

Ebitda margin improved 370 basis points QoQ led by higher revenue driving operating leverage and cost control.
