The hospital has been built at the cost of over Rs 660 crore by Tata Memorial Centre, an aided institute under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India.

The cancer hospital is a tertiary care hospital with a 300-bed capacity. It is equipped with modern facilities to treat all types of cancers using every available treatment modality like surgery, radiotherapy and medical oncology - chemotherapy, immunotherapy and bone marrow transplant.

The hospital will function like a ‘hub’ of cancer care and treatment in the region, with the 100-bedded hospital in Sangrur functioning as its ‘spoke’.
