  • Vol-Regime Model has switched to “Low & Down” vol-state in Nifty50. Tactical implications:  Short Vega exposure less favourable going forward.
  • Risk premia selloff has driven Vol Term-Structure deeper into Contango. Smile & Skew characteristics have compressed in congruence with lower IVs.

  • The company plans to add 1,000–1,500 beds in next 2–3 years, with most of the planned bed addition being at greenfield projects entailing higher capex per bed.
  • Medanta does offer synergy as a possible takeover candidate for a leading hospital operator.
