Hospital names like Apollo Hospitals, Max Healthcare, Fortis jumped up by up to ~5%.

The impetus came from the govt revising CGHS rates for nearly 2,000 medical procedures. 

The new rates take effect from October 13, boosting revenue outlooks. 

Many healthcare providers are now revaluing their contracts under the scheme. 

Investors see this as a tailwind for hospital chains with CGHS tie-ups. 

The move may encourage others in the sector to push for rate hikes. 

Stocks without CGHS exposure may lag despite the overall sector rally. 

Volatility is high, so positioning needs careful risk management. 

Short-term gains are possible, but sustainability depends on execution. 

Healthcare becomes one of the more active sectors today.
