Malaysia-based healthcare firm IHH Healthcare Berhad announced that its indirect wholly owned subsidiary Gleneagles Development has purchased a 51% interest in India-based Continental Hospitals for MYR166.73m ($45.4m).

Located in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad, the facility is a 750-bed super speciality hospital.

The latest deal emerges after Singapore’s Competition Commission halted IHH’s plan to acquire a local unit of India’s Fortis Healthcare for MYR346.5m ($94m), reported Reuters.

"Established in March 2013, the hospital provides more than 30 specialties, including services in cardiovascular, gastroenterology and liver, neurosciences, orthopaedics, spine and joint reconstruction."
