Current report
We are constantly working on making our surgical robotics technology even more user-friendly, easy to operate and even more cost effective so as to make its benefits reach to larger communities across the globe. We are relentlessly pursuing our vision of increasing the penetration of robotics surgeries in regions and countries which were hitherto completely forgotten. In this pursuit, we recently set up first surgical robotic system in the Himalayan nation, Nepal in one of the leading multi-specialty hospital which has generated tremendous interest in other hospitals also in the region.
Current report
The SSi Mantra Surgical Robotic System has received regulatory approvals in India, Indonesia, Nepal, Guatemala and Ecuador. We are at various stages of the regulatory registration process in a number of other countries which accept Indian regulatory body approvals coupled with their own registration requirements for the import of surgical robotic system into these countries. We have initiated the regulatory approval process in the United States and the EU, with approvals to market anticipated in the second half of 2025.
