IHH Healthcare Bhd, based in Malaysia, plans to pay Rs 740 Cr for the remaining stake acquisition. This will be facilitated through IHH Healthcare's wholly-owned subsidiary, Gleneagles Development.

Malaysian company IHH Healthcare Bhd announced it would buy Dr. Ravindranath Kancherla's remaining stake in Ravindranath GE Medical Associates Private Ltd. (RGE) for INR 740 Cr. 

IHH Healthcare's wholly-owned subsidiary, Gleneagles Development, entered the agreement for this acquisition.
