New Delhi, 24th July 2025: 'We have demonstrated that right unit economics at scale and tech driven integrated business processes can deliver profitability for Digital First Healthcare service providers. Our business prospects and processes are fully aligned to deliver positive EBITDA not only in FY 26 but also in years to come with Revenue growth higher than industry average. Healthians has significant pricing leverage which will help in driving growth besides volumes', said Nishant Singhal, Board Member & CEO at Healthians. Outside of Healthians, Nishant continues to be a prominent voice in India's startup ecosystem. He is known for mentoring and backing purpose-driven entrepreneurial ventures across industry verticals. Nishant Singhal has embarked on an exciting new chapter in his professional journey, stepping into the role of Chief Executive Officer at Healthians, India's leading 'At Home' diagnostics and health-tech platform. This move reflects a natural progression in Nishant's long-standing association with Healthians. Nishant came in as a seed investor in Healthians on behalf of Yuvraj Singh's start up fund.
He has been an active Member of the Board of Directors since 2017. He also took up the role of Chief Operating Officer for over 3 years till mid of 2023. Healthians scaled up on all fronts during this period including 18X revenue and volume growth, setting up of over 22 labs and expansion to 300 cities. Healthians also raised over USD 100 mn during this period from prestigious investors like Westbridge Capital, Beenext and Evolvence Fund. His deep operational understanding and strategic leadership have helped shape the company's expansion and innovation-driven culture.
'It's always exciting to lead what you built over last few years. We are on a transformative journey to build scale and profitability i.e. Healthians 3.0. We will be delivering our best business performance in FY 26,' said Nishant Singhal.
Nishant has been actively involved in leading the business since February 2025 and the impact is immediately visible. Healthians has recently announced that it has turned EBITDA and Cash positive in the Quarter ending June 2025. A first in Health Tech space and a much-awaited development. This comes as a 'Diagnostics at Home' category defining moment and that too from a Digital Native healthcare service provider like Healthians. The capability of Digital First players to deliver cash EBITDA has been a point of debate for over a decade now. It has been widely believed that most of the players will run out of cash and will eventually either significantly scale down or shut business.
'Healthians, a Digital First healthcare service provider, has always been at the forefront of driving best in class processes in Diagnostics at Home as a category. We have provided best in class diagnostic services to homes of over 1 million customers in the quarter ended June 2025, backed by our CAP Accredited and NABL accredited labs. We continue to lead the consumer and corporate wellness space with tech driven consumer-oriented services', said Nishant Singhal, Board Member & CEO at Healthians.
Healthians has reported that the company is growing faster than all industry players on a YOY and Sequential basis. Healthians is also projecting FY 26 to be a fully EBITDA profitable year.
