Ltd., CIN U85101MN1998PTC005626) is a 350-bed multi-specialty tertiary hospital headquartered at HealthVillage Langol, Imphal-West, Manipur, operating 37 specialties and super-specialties across 30 clinical departments with 78 critical care beds, 1,590 caregivers, and a medical staff of 162-173 full-time doctors.

It is the first NABH-accredited medical college hospital in North East India, holds NABL laboratory accreditation, and was the first ISO-certified 200-bedded hospital in the state.

The hospital generates revenue across multiple streams: tertiary and emergency clinical care billed to insured, government-scheme (CMHT, PMJAY), and private-pay patients; preventive health-check packages priced from Rs 2,700 to Rs 10,800; diagnostic and imaging services; and medical, nursing, and paramedical education through wholly-owned subsidiaries — Shija Academy of Health Sciences (MBBS, 150 seats/year from 2021-2022), Shija Academy of Nursing, and Shija Paramedical Research and Academy — together with the Shija Eye Care Foundation. The MobiHIStree mobile application extends reach via teleconsultation, online appointment booking, and digital lab-report retrieval. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer supplemented by 48 empanelled organisations spanning six NE state governments, 16 central government entities, and 20+ TPAs and insurance companies (Apollo Munich, Bajaj Allianz, Care Health, Cigna TTK).

Distribution is anchored by the Imphal main campus and a Keishampat urban OPD, with active geographic expansion through the ₹900 crore Shija Hospitals Tripura project (foundation stone laid 6 November 2025) and international humanitarian-medical outreach via Mission Myanmar (134 cleft-lip/palate, 179 cataract, and 32 keyhole surgeries performed free of charge). Notable clinical milestones include the first deceased-donor kidney transplantations in NE India (2 August and 11 October 2023), 124 cumulative kidney transplants, and a Guinness World Record (April 2004) for excision of the largest neck tumour. Leadership is founder-led under Chairman and Managing Director Dr. Palin Khundongbam (founder, 1985) with a family-professional management team spanning CEO, Director-Medical Services, Director-HR, Executive Director, and General Manager functions.

Direct peers

• AMRI Hospitals: Eastern India-focused multi-specialty hospital chain (Kolkata, Bhubaneswar, Silchar) under the OCL group. Comparable to SHRI as a regional tertiary referral chain with similar bed scale and dependence on government/insurance empanelment in geographies adjacent to the Northeast.
• Marengo CIMS Hospital: Multi-specialty tertiary hospital in Ahmedabad with a strong NABH-accredited model and medical-college linkages. Comparable to SHRI in scale, accreditation orientation and revenue mix across self-pay, insurance and government schemes.
• Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences (KIMS): Regional multi-specialty hospital chain headquartered in Hyderabad and listed in India. Comparable business model, bed scale (300-1,000+), doctor-led governance and dependence on government schemes (Aarogyasri) and insurance empanelment.
• Narayana Health: Multi-specialty hospital group founded by Dr. Devi Shetty with a similar mission-driven, affordable-care model and deep reliance on government health schemes. Comparable on tertiary referral positioning, medical-education vertical and cross-subsidy between insured and government scheme patients.
• Manipal Hospitals: India's largest hospital chain by bed count, operating multi-specialty tertiary hospitals across tier-1 and tier-2 cities. Directly comparable in business model (multi-specialty hospital plus medical college), governance (private, professionally managed) and patient mix (insured, government schemes and self-pay).
• C.K. Birla Hospitals (BMB/CMRI): Multi-specialty hospital group operating facilities in Eastern India (BMB, CMRI, Calcutta). Closely comparable to SHRI in regional East-India footprint, bed scale, clinical scope and government/insurance patient mix.

Broad incumbents

• Fortis Healthcare: National multi-specialty hospital chain with strong tertiary and quaternary capability. Overlaps with SHRI in clinical scope, NABH/JCI-style accreditation orientation and insurance-driven cashless patient base; relevant as a potential acquirer or competitor in the Northeast corridor.
• Apollo Hospitals Enterprise: Largest private hospital chain in India with full-suite tertiary and quaternary care. Overlaps with SHRI in multi-specialty clinical capability and government/insurance patient mix; potential competitive threat as Apollo expands into tier-2/3 India including the Northeast.
• Max Healthcare Institute: North India-focused hospital chain known for tertiary and quaternary care. Comparable revenue mix (insured, self-pay, government schemes) and multi-specialty positioning; relevant as a benchmark for SHRI's potential valuation step-up upon scaling.

Emerging players

• HealthCare Global Enterprises (HCG): India's largest cancer-care hospital network with a hub-and-spoke model reaching tier-2/3 cities, plus an academic/clinical training arm. Relevant comparable for SHRI's specialty cancer programme under Surgical Oncology and for the medical-education integration strategy.
