Hey, for a middle-class Indian couple like the taxi driver and his wife who want a kid through surrogacy but can’t afford it, options are limited but exist. In India, only altruistic surrogacy is legal (Surrogacy Act, 2021), meaning no payment to the surrogate, just medical costs, which can still hit ₹15-25 lakh. Sadly, there aren’t many charities or trusts directly funding surrogacy here. Some NGOs like Fertility Dost might guide you to low-cost clinics, or hospitals like Corion Fertility (Mumbai) may offer payment plans or discounts. Check with local fertility clinics for loans or tie-ups with banks. The couple needs to be married 5+ years, have a medical reason (like age-related issues), and use a close relative as the surrogate (25-35 years, married, with a kid). Start by consulting a fertility specialist to confirm eligibility and explore affordable options in cities like Delhi or Mumbai.
If a couple genuinely needs surrogacy but cannot afford a big amount, we try our best to help. At Vinsfertility, we offer flexible payment plans, low-cost options, and in some cases connect couples with trusts or NGOs that support infertility treatments. Our aim is to make surrogacy possible for deserving parents, regardless of their financial background.
