Ankur Capital has announced its investment in Karma Healthcare, an Udaipur based rural health provider. The company runs clinics in rural Rajasthan and provides basic curative health access to specialized doctors through telemedicine and direct face to face doctor contact.
“Ankur is excited to be working with Karma and bringing quality care to rural populations. We believe that models like Karma have a role to play in unlocking value in the largely untapped rural health space,” said the press statement.

Karma's combination of doctors reaching patients through the internet as well as through face-to-face interactions while generating sustainable cash flows has potential to affect health delivery in rural areas. At Ankur we are committed to developing models that can have far reaching effects on affordable and quality medical care to rural populations who may be used to quick fixes offered by quacks."
