The company's operating cash flow reached a notable Rs 138.09 crore, and net sales peaked at Rs 232.55 crore, indicating some operational strengths. However, these positives are overshadowed by several concerning indicators.

In terms of market performance, Medi Assist's stock has underperformed compared to the Sensex over various periods.

This stark contrast highlights the challenges faced by Medi Assist in a competitive insurance landscape.
