The healthcare sector across the globe and India
has been getting a lot of attention ever since the
Covid-19 pandemic emerged. The necessity to
find a vaccine and the further expenses incurred
in curing the virus has put the sector in the
limelight. But, the private equity fund
investments that went into the sector in the
January-September period in India declined this
year compared to the same period last year.

A closer look at the investment in the different
segments showed that three distinct areas —
drug companies, biotech companies, and firms
in the consumer health and wellness space
gathered more investment. Experts said though
this concern is not out of the blue, the pandemic
have stimulated funding in these segments.

The Covid-19 pandemic has resulted in an
intensified interest among investors for the
reason that most of these companies globally,
including some in India, are working on
producing a vaccine for the coronavirus. The
investments are also likely to grow in the coming
times as vaccines are likely to be released by end
of this year or mid-next. There is also a huge
demand for certain healthcare products right
from hand sanitizers to PPE kits and protective
gear. The manufacturing of these products will
also increase.

It has been said by experts in the post-Covid
world too, the interest towards these sectors
will be sustained and long-term because the
public and governments would want to restrict
such pandemics in the future and keep
healthcare the top priority.
Clinics, hospitals, and diagnostic services face
the biggest challenge due to Covid and saw a 75-
80 percent drop in the patient for selected
procedures. Even in the case of serious illnesses
patients were seen to be shying away from
hitting health facilities. While the situation has
improved, still most facilities are operating at
40-50 percent of their pre-Covid capacity. This
has also limited the capacity for health facilities
to invest in procuring medical devices. As the
sector picks up, in the post-Covid world,
diagnostics and medical devices will be two sub-
sectors to closely look at.
