Sukino raises $31 M in Series B round to deliver enhanced out‑of‑hospital care

Bengaluru-based startup Sukino, the out of hospital healthcare chain, has raised $31 million in its Series B round led by Bessemer Venture Partners. This round also saw participation from Rainmatter. The funds will be used for geographical expansion.

India accounts for ~10% of the global stroke cases annually, a number rising steadily due to structural health and lifestyle factors such as obesity, sedentary habits, hypertension, stress, and air pollution. Each patient typically requires 6 to 8 weeks of multi-modal rehabilitative care post-procedure, including physical, speech, occupational, and psychological therapy.

This is where Sukino comes in. It bridges the gap between the extended care that is critical for the recovery of patients and the growing willingness of Indians to access this assistance. It provides structured, affordable post-acute support which enables patients to lead fuller lives.

Sukino today operates 850+ beds across eleven centres in Bangalore, Kochi, and Coimbatore and is profitable at the group level. Their centres are strategically located between major hospitals and residential hubs. Though they primarily cater to the needs of stroke patients, centres also admit people who need rehabilitation for neurological, orthopedic, and oncology conditions.

Sukino has seen 64% YoY growth for the past year with 5 centers being added. They plan to expand to 22 more centres in the next 2 years.
