Can Private Capital SAVE India's Healthcare System? | Ft. Nitish Agrawal

India’s healthcare system cannot survive without private funding. In this episode of The Healthcare Tribe, we speak with Nitish Agrawal, Managing Director at Indium Capital Advisors, to understand why private capital is not optional—but essential—for the future of Indian healthcare. Healthcare is one of the most complex businesses in the world. It is more complicated than airlines, more regulated than tech, and far more capital-intensive than most industries. From hospitals and diagnostics to medtech and healthcare financing, every layer of this ecosystem depends on long-term capital, disciplined execution, and the ability to scale responsibly. In this conversation, we break down how healthcare businesses are actually built, funded, and sustained in India. In this episode, we discuss: Why government-only healthcare models struggle to scale The real role of private capital in hospitals and diagnostics How private equity and investment banking shape healthcare outcomes Why healthcare is more complex than airlines or technology businesses Whether Indian healthcare can survive without investors The future of healthcare funding in India This episode is especially relevant for: • Doctors planning to start hospitals or clinics • Healthcare founders and operators • Investors and private equity professionals • Policymakers and healthcare enthusiasts Listen to more episodes →    / @thehealthcaretribe   Follow @TheHealthcareTribe on Instagram https://www.instagram.com/the_healthc...
