History
Wockhardt Hospitals started its first operations with a medical center in Kolkata in 1989 and a heart hospital in Bangalore two years later. The company was incorporated on 28 August 1991 under the Companies Act, 1956 as a public limited company, originally named First Hospitals and Heart Institute Limited.[7] Wockhardt Hospitals were one of the early movers among corporate health-care chains in India.
On 11 September 2000, the name was changed to Wockhardt Health Sciences Limited and subsequently on 19 October 2000 the name was changed to Wockhardt Hospitals Limited.[8]
In 2009, Wockhardt Hospitals sold 10 of its hospitals in Mumbai, Bangalore and Kolkata to Fortis Healthcare for ₹909 crore,[9] which left it with seven multi speciality hospitals in Western India.[8]
