“As of this month, I’ve stepped away from all formal executive responsibilities, and will now continue as a shareholder,” Sahni said in a post on LinkedIn.
After serving as chief executive for a decade, Sahni moved into the role of executive chairman in 2023.
Founded in 2014, the Beenext-backed company operates an at-home health testing service, offering a broad range of diagnostics including blood tests, cancer screenings, and checks for cardiac health, diabetes, and thyroid conditions, among others.
“After scaling to more than Rs 3,000 crore (in) valuation, expanding to over 300 cities, building over 22 labs, and raising seven rounds of capital with no external bankers, we’ve proven that diagnostics in India can be built at scale, with soul,” he said.
According to Tracxn, Healthians has raised $80.1 million from investors like Beenext and WestBridge Capital.
The company posted a revenue of Rs 270 crore in the last fiscal year. Nishant Singhal, who has been with the company since 2017, currently serves as its chief executive.
“Going forward, my focus remains the same: to solve deeper problems in healthcare, support brilliant founders, and build new ventures with even more clarity and courage,” Sahni added.
Earlier this month, Sahni said he would commit Rs 100 crore to back early-stage startups over the next three years.
