renamed <strong>Fortis</strong> Clinique Darné<br />

in January 2009; when <strong>Fortis</strong><br />

<strong>Healthcare</strong> Limited, joined hands<br />

with a diversified Mauritian<br />

Industrial Group CIEL (through<br />

its subsidiary Novelife Limited) to<br />

jointly acquire a controlling stake<br />
