The cover story in this issue is on Britannia Industries making record gains during the pandemic. Its net profits for the April-June quarter were up by 118 percent over a year ago, and at a three-year high.

That apart, there is a robust package on health care. Covid-19 has been a wake-up call to unleash some much-needed reforms in the sector. Our stories give an overall perspective on what has worked so far and the likely trends in a post-Covid-19 world.
