2 Business plan for Swanthana Medical laboratories
diagnostic and pathology market is around two percent of the total market.
Indian diagnostic market has been growing fast, at 15-20 percent growth
rate but there are lots of development needs. The growth rate is estimated
to
remain
the
same
for
the
following
ten
years.
One of the major driving forces is the basic demographic change: the
migration to urban cities, with increasing number of people having access
to modern healthcare. Consequently, more and more investments are being
made in hospitals and clinical laboratories. However, the rural sector is not
to be forgotten. The emerging industry structure is headed towards
providing healthcare services as an integrated comprehensive package
rather than the traditional concept of providing healthcare infrastructure
and reactive medical care. Among the middle and high-income families in
India there is a rapidly increasing health consciousness which leads to high
demand on preventive health care.
Swanthana Medical Laboratories offers a comprehensive clinical test for
potential patients under one roof. The tests include:

Finance
The cash flow statement, profit and loss account and balance sheet for the
upcoming three years are projected for the financial analysis of the project.
The charts of sale-profit details, asset-liabilities are given below. In year 1,
profit is in negative, but it is positive in year 2 and 3. As the project involves
huge investment, the project is not profitable in the first year but will be
profitable in the second year onwards. The projected asset of the project is
increasing in the upcoming years and liability is decreasing with time. In
the first year, the capital was negative and in subsequent years capital is
positive, which indicates a positive growth for the business.
Critical risk
In Kalamassery, there is a total of six blood drawing laboratories. Of the six,
two only serve their specific clients and do not do work for other physicians.
Of the remaining four, three offer Chemical tests and not having scanning
facility and the remaining one is full-fledged laboratory not having on-site
collection of samples.
The closest competitor to Swanthana Medical Laboratories is DDC, located
at Edapally. This is the facility that 95% of the physicians in the
Kalamassery currently use. It is used by these physicians because of
convenience, it WAS the closest laboratory. As mentioned earlier, medical
testing service providers are chosen based on convenience, how close they
are to the patients. Hours of operation (i.e. longer hours/evening hours) are
insignificant since physicians are only available during traditional daytime
office hours.
Harvest strategy
When a few partners retire from the Swanthana Medical Laboratories and
the remaining partners, who are two or more, take over and continue the
business of the firm, there is merely change in constitution of the firm and
the business continues. At the time of transfer, as business of the firm
continues, stock can be valued at cost or market value which-ever is lower.
