Assam Chief Minister Sarma inaugurates Peerless Hospital

Guwahati: Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma inaugurated the Peerless Hospital, set up by the Peerless Group pursuant to the agreement signed with the Government of Assam during the Advantage Assam 2.0 summit.

This 300-bed multi-specialty tertiary care hospital is located at Ahom Gaon, Garchuk. Sarma, speaking on the occasion, noted that the Government of Assam, aiming to enhance investment across various sectors, had signed several MoUs during Advantage Assam 2.0, most of which are now at different stages of implementation. While some companies have already commenced operations and others have inaugurated their projects, a few have initiated discussions with the government to take their plans forward. Since the signing of the MoU with the Peerless Group, he added, the State Government has worked in close coordination with the company to make the hospital operational.

Highlighting the credentials of the Peerless Group, the Chief Minister remarked that it is one of India’s oldest companies, which began in the financial sector before expanding into healthcare and other domains. With two hospitals already functioning in West Bengal, the establishment of this hospital in Guwahati represents, he said, a significant step in the advancement of healthcare services in Assam. Expressing confidence in the success of the Peerless Group’s venture in the State, he added that this facility would provide the people of Assam with access to quality healthcare.


“Today marks a milestone for Peerless — bringing our 30-year legacy of ethical, patient-first care to Assam and the Northeast. With 100 beds to start, and 300 beds by 2026, Peerless Hospital Guwahati will offer advanced specialties like cardiology, neurology, orthopaedics, and critical care”, said Jayanta Roy, Managing Director, Peerless General Finance and Investment Company Ltd and Promoter of the Peerless Hospital Group. “We are inspired by the CM Himanta Biswa Sarma’s visionary leadership — Assam is emerging as a national model in healthcare, and we’re proud to be part of this journey. Peerless stands for ownership, trust, and excellence — and with this step, we reaffirm our commitment to serve, heal, and grow together.”
