π Tender Overview
Scope : To Build 3 Cancer Facilities in Navi Mumbai, Punjab and Andhra Pradesh.
ICICI Bank committed Rs 1,200 crore to help Tata Memorial Centre (TMC) to expand its cancer treating facilities.
As part of the commitment from ICICI Foundation, three new facilities will be built in Navi Mumbai's Kharghar on the outskirts of the financial capital, Mullanpur in Punjab and Visakhapatnam in Andhra Pradesh.
Girish Chandra Chaturvedi, the chairman of the second largest private sector lender, said the three facilities will be fully functional by 2027 and will enable TMC to handle 25,000 more cancer patients per year.
The bank has Rs 500 crore of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) corpus ready for the three facilities, and will be adding to the corpus as the years go.
The bank feels by the end of the spending cycle, the overall CSR corpus will be Rs 2,500 crore, which means the bank will be spending 50 per cent of its overall money on this partnership.
At present, the bank spends about 25 per cent of its CSR budget on healthcare which may go up or down depending on the need.
