Yuvraj Singh’s backed Healthians raises Rs 20 Cr series A funding

Cricketer Yuvraj Singh backed home service health-test platform Healthians, has raised about Rs 20 Cr in a series A funding led by Japanese early stage investor Beenext. Deepak Sahni, CEO of Healthians, has revealed that the funding will be used to expand its operations in Mumbai, Bangalore, and Hyderabad by 2017. Also, a significant part of the funding will also go into their innovation lab to improve its technology.

Healthians.com demystifies healthcare by offering comprehensive information on Preventive Check-ups for all Non-communicable diseases, and suggests recommendations based on Age, Gender, Risk areas& symptoms as opposed to a basic, one-size-fits-all approach from most of the providers in India. As an example, most of us get recommended a regular, brochure-driven Whole Body check up without any counselling, whereas the ideal process should include factors like Age, gender, symptoms, Lifestyle Habits& more. The portal also offers step by step guidance for preparation of tests and comes with a 360-degree health information including price comparison between different Hospitals, hassle free appointment booking across the country.

Healthians was earlier backed by Yuvraj Singh’s YouWeCan Ventures, Taxi-ForSure cofounder Aprameya Radhakrishna and Bessemer Venture Partners MD Subramanya SV.
