Where the return came from

Yearly rates to Mar 2026, per-share figures restated for splits and bonuses.

OverReturn a yearEarnings growthChange in P/EDividend yield
1 year−16.7%+14.4%−27.4%0.3%
3 years+17.0%+9.5%+6.7%0.2%
Return is price growth plus the average dividend yield. Change in P/E is (1 + price growth) / (1 + earnings growth) - 1, so the parts compound rather than add.

About Rainbow Childrens Medicare

Rainbow Children's Medicare Limited runs hospitals for children, newborns and mothers in India. Its services cover paediatric care, neonatal intensive care, perinatal care (care around pregnancy and birth), women's health and fertility care. It was incorporated in 1998, and Rainbow Children's Hospitals were founded in 1999. Dr. Ramesh Kancharla is its founder, chairman and managing director.

It lists its services as child care, super-specialty paediatric care, women's care, fertility care and diagnostic services. They sit under three brands: Rainbow Children's Hospital for paediatric care, BirthRight by Rainbow for women and perinatal care, and Rainbow Fertility for fertility care. The hospitals follow a hub-and-spoke structure. Its care includes paediatric organ transplantation. Hub hospitals anchor advanced care and high-complexity services, while smaller spoke units provide essential maternity and paediatric services closer to communities. Doctors work with the company on a full-time basis.

At March 2026 the company had 23 hospitals, 5 clinics, one IVF centre and 2,375 beds. These figures leave out a 60-bed hospital at HRBR in Bengaluru, which began operating on 1 May 2026. It has a presence in Bengaluru, Chennai, Delhi, Guwahati, Hyderabad, Rajahmundry, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam and Warangal.

Its shares are listed on the NSE and BSE. It took an investment from the CDC Group, UK. In 2025 it acquired Prashanthi Hospital in Warangal and Pratiksha Hospital in Guwahati.
