Arete Institute of Medical Sciences has sold its 250-bed hospital in Hyderabad's Gachibowli to Aurevia Hospitals via a Business Transfer Agreement signed on 3 July 2026. TLH Advocates & Solicitors advised Arete, with partner Yasasvi GV leading the deal alongside associates Kapil Devnani and Srujana Kuchimanchi. The facility will now be operated by Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences under a five-year Operations and Management Agreement. The transaction shifts ownership of a major tertiary-care centre in Hyderabad and brings in a new operating structure.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

Hospital chain consolidations in Hyderabad have accelerated as operators seek to optimise bed capacity. KIMS, which will run this facility under a five-year management deal, operates multiple hospitals across Telangana and Andhra Pradesh. The Business Transfer Agreement route lets sellers exit the asset while the buyer takes over operations without a full merger. The exit of Arete from Gachibowli likely reflects strategic realignment toward other locations or specialties. The next signal to watch is whether Aurevia, now backed by KIMS, will acquire additional facilities in the same corridor.
