As someone who has to buy medical supplies on a monthly basis for just household usage ( glucose level check stripes, guaze rolls, swabs, Saline, dressing Pads) they are sold at fair(11%) to extremely(70%) discounted prices on MRP to me depending on items in most surgical stores
This is just for private use in smaller tier 2 city , imagine hospitals in tier 1, large tier 2 cities. MRP is very high than sold price and can be used to rake large profits (this is not including inpatient medicines which is also big profit pusher)
