India's Ageing Ecosystem · Living Reference

Aging India Map

Mapping the ecosystem that will shape how India ages

A living reference of organisations building for, researching, and advocating for India's ageing population — startups, NGOs, hospitals, research institutions, professional bodies, and government programmes.

By 2046, India will have more people over 60 than children under 15.

2022
1 in 10 Indians aged 60+ 149 million
2050
1 in 5 Indians aged 60+ 347 million

Why I Built This

I've spent years trying to understand who is building for India's ageing population. Not just the startups — the hospitals, the NGOs, the palliative care centres, the gerontology societies, the government schemes, the people working on dementia care and estate planning and second careers. I couldn't find it all in one place.

So I built it.

The Aging India Map is a living reference for everyone working in, investing in, or researching the space where India ages. It covers organisations across the full spectrum — from early-stage founders to century-old civil society bodies — and it will be updated as the ecosystem grows.

If your organisation belongs here and isn't listed, use the Get Listed tab or write to me at pavicreddy@gmail.com.

I'm Pavithra Chandra Reddy, a gerontologist based in Bangalore. This is my independent project — no institution behind it, no agenda other than making the ecosystem visible to itself.
