ECOFY Raises USD 12.5 Million from IFU to Accelerate India’s Sustainable Future

New Delhi, 26th March 2025: Ecofy Finance Private Limited, India’s green-transition-focused NBFC, today announced it has secured a USD 12.5 million long-term loan facility from the Investment Fund for Developing Countries (IFU), a development finance institution owned by the Government of Denmark.

Ecofy aims to address the critical last-mile climate finance gap in India’s consumer, transportation and small business sectors. With ambitious targets, the NBFC plans to finance over 1 million electric vehicles and more than 1.5 GW of rooftop solar within the next 6-7 years.

This will support decarbonisation of the transportation sector and power consumption of households and small businesses in India. The electric vehicles financed through Ecofy will reduce a range of harmful air pollutants caused by fossil fuel vehicles.

A part of the financing provided by IFU would be directed towards individuals and SMEs, who typically find traditional financing channels less accessible and therefore to a large extent are excluded from acting as green consumers.

Vivek Khandelwal, Treasury Head at Ecofy, said, “This investment is a pivotal moment for both, Ecofy and the green finance ecosystem in India. The long-term capital provided by IFU empowers us to scale our climate-focused lending solutions while breaking down barriers for underserved borrowers. By combining innovative financing models with a strong commitment to sustainability, we aim to enable access to electric vehicles and rooftop solar, and to drive systemic change toward a cleaner, more inclusive economy.”

Vibhor Singhal, Investment Manager at IFU, said “IFU is very pleased to support Ecofy in its pursuit to provide accessible climate finance to the masses. This investment aligns well with IFU’s strategy, as India is a core focus country and climate mitigation and access to finance are key impact priorities for IFU.”

The financing from IFU, structured as long-term debt capital, is part of the green strategic partnership between India and Denmark, which was established in 2020 when the prime ministers of both nations signed the agreement.

Aster MIMS Kozhikode Earns India’s First AHA Accreditation for Comprehensive Stroke Care

Kozhikode, March 26,2025: Aster MIMS, Kozhikode (Calicut) has made history in stroke care by becoming India’s first hospital to receive the prestigious Comprehensive Stroke Center accreditation from the American Heart Association (AHA). This recognition brings out the hospital’s commitment in providing rapid diagnosis and advanced treatment for complex stroke cases, supported by a modern stroke care program, advanced infrastructure’s & equipment, a multidisciplinary team of clinical experts, and adherence to internationally recognized protocols.

The accreditation was achieved after a careful evaluation of the hospital’s stroke care program, which includes its advanced diagnostic capabilities, modern treatment methods, and comprehensive post-stroke care. Aster MIMS stands out with its unique and integrated approach to stroke care, starting from the pre-hospital stage through its Response-Rescue-Resuscitation (R-R-R) system. The hospital is also one of the South Asia’s first Emergency Department Biplane Cathlab, enabling quick medical intervention and precise diagnosis during critical moments of stroke treatment.

Aster MIMS

Mr. Lukman Ponmadath, Chief Operating Officer of Aster MIMS, stated that , “This accreditation reflects the hospital’s excellence in treating even the most complex stroke cases. It also highlights our advanced diagnostic services, modern treatment methods, and comprehensive post-stroke care, ensuring that patients receive the best possible treatment without delay.” He also added that the hospital’s world-class stroke care services and medical expertise have previously been recognized with multiple awards, including the World Stroke Organization’s Angels Awards (9 Diamond, 2 Platinum, and 3 Gold), the IHWS Patient-Centric Hospital in Stroke Care Award, and the Voice of Healthcare’s Stroke Innovation and Excellence Award.

Dr Venugopalan P.P, Head of the Emergency Department stated that, “Through these advanced stroke care infrastructures, we make sure that critical interventions are initiated without any delay which gradually improves patient health and help them to recover faster.”

The R-R-R system allows emergency teams and hospital staff to communicate in real-time, ensuring that patients receive immediate assessment and life-saving interventions even before they reach the hospital. This system is especially critical in reducing delays for treatments like thrombolysis (clot-dissolving therapy) and thrombectomy (mechanical clot removal), which are essential for effective stroke management.

When a patient arrives at the hospital, they are swiftly taken to the Biplane Cathlab, where advanced brain imaging and precise stroke management begin without delay. This process ensures that the time between the patient’s arrival and the start of treatment known as Door-to-Needle Time (DTNT) and Door-to-Groin Time (DTGT) is kept to an absolute minimum. By cutting down these critical time gaps, not only improves the chances of recovery but also helps patients regain their health faster, giving them a better quality of life after a stroke.

The hospital’s advanced facilities, latest imaging technologies, and a dedicated team of neurologists, neurosurgeons, and critical care specialists plays an important role in achieving this milestone. The press conference announcing the accreditation was attended by key officials, including the COO of Aster MIMS- Mr. Lukman Ponmadath, Head of Neurosurgery -Dr. Jacob Alappat, CMS – Dr. Abraham Mammen, Deputy CMS – Dr. Noufal Basheer, Head of Emergency Medicine – Dr. Venugopalan P.P, Dr. Abdul Rahman, Dr. Rafeeque, and Dr. Paul Alappat.
