The Asian Institute of Nephrology and Urology (AINU), India’s largest single-speciality chain for Uro-Nephro care, has expanded its flagship hospital in Banjara Hills, Hyderabad. With 150 beds, 4 operating rooms, 34 dialysis beds, and advanced robotic technology, it is now the largest corporate hospital in India for this speciality.
AINU has invested ₹150 crore this year to fuel its expansion, improve facilities, and prepare for its next growth phase.
Rising Need for Specialised Kidney and Urology Care
Urological diseases are increasing rapidly in India due to lifestyle disorders such as hypertension, obesity, and diabetes. An ageing population also adds to the demand. Around 50–60% of men over 60 suffer from benign prostatic enlargement (BPH), while prostate cancer is now the country’s second most common cancer in men, growing at 2.5% annually.
Strategic Expansion Plans
Mr. Vishal Bali, Executive Chairman of Asia Healthcare Holdings, said:
“India needs a specialised approach to address rising Urology and Nephrology issues. We are building the country’s leading single-speciality hospital network with expert clinicians and advanced technology. In FY 26-27, we plan to open 3–4 more hospitals across India.”
Technology for Precision and Better Outcomes
Dr. Mallikarjun, Chief Consultant Urologist & Chairman at AINU, highlighted the role of innovation:
“Technological advancements like robotic, endoscopic, and laparoscopic surgeries, 3D imaging, and AI are reshaping patient care. Our new facility combines our 12-year legacy with cutting-edge technology to deliver safer, faster, and more precise treatments.”
Mr. Sandeep Guduru, CEO of AINU, added:
“In the last six years, we have grown from one hospital to seven across India. We have performed over 1,200 robotic surgeries, 1,000 reconstructive urology surgeries, 300 kidney transplants, and 2 lakh dialysis sessions, serving over 500,000 patients. We aim to be India’s most trusted name in Uro-Nephro care.”
