Acquisition of US Pediatric Firm
The rally follows a recent corporate acquisition. In a filing dated September 21, the company announced its wholly owned subsidiary, Mom’s Belief US Inc., acquired a 100% stake in City Pro Group Inc. (CPG). The deal, effective September 18, 2026, makes CPG a step-down wholly owned subsidiary of Rays of Belief.
CPG is a New York-based provider of pediatric healthcare services, established in 1995. The company reported revenue of $11.43 million (approximately ₹97.27 crore) for the financial year 2025 and operates in key New York locations including the Bronx, Brooklyn, Manhattan, and Long Island.
Strategic Rationale and Management Commentary

Nitin Bindlish, Managing Director of Rays of Belief Limited, Mom’s Belief, commented on the strategic move. City Pro Group gives us an established operating platform inside the New York Early Intervention ecosystem, experienced clinical teams, community relationships and practices developed over many years, he said. Bindlish added that India remains central to the company's growth, but the acquisition provides a chance to accelerate learning through international capabilities. The company plans to evaluate elements of CPG's clinical and community practices across its 136 centres in India.
