Singapore: According to a stock market disclosure, Malaysia's largest hospital operator IHH healthcare has acquired 51 percent stake in India's Continental Hospitals for about $45.4 million. This marks a rare move by an international healthcare provider to buy a majority stake in an Indian hospital.
