India permits altruistic surrogacy only under the Surrogacy (Regulation) Act, 2021, now in force with updates in 2024–25. This means no payment is allowed beyond medical fees and insurance. Only Indian heterosexual married couples (or widowed/divorced single women aged 35–45) who have been married at least five years and have medical infertility, can opt for surrogacy. The surrogate must be a close relative, aged 25–35, with one biological child. Clinics must be registered and conform to strict ethical standards. https://graciousivf.com/surrogacy-in-india-2025-rules-cost-how-to-get-started/?utm_
