Sumeru Hospital to Repay Rs 1 Billion Bank Loan Through Land Sale

Sumeru Hospital has announced plans to repay a Rs 1 billion bank loan by selling a portion of its land assets, marking a significant financial restructuring step for the healthcare institution. The decision comes as part of efforts to manage liabilities and stabilize the hospital’s financial position amid rising operational costs.

Hospital management stated that the land sale would help ease debt pressure while allowing core medical services to continue without disruption. Officials emphasized that patient care and hospital operations would remain unaffected, and the move is aimed at ensuring long-term sustainability rather than downsizing healthcare services.

Financial analysts view the decision as a pragmatic approach to debt management in Nepal’s private healthcare sector, which has faced increasing challenges in recent years. The outcome of the land sale and loan repayment is expected to influence the hospital’s future expansion plans and overall financial health.
