Legal Regulation Of Surrogacy In India




Riya Mourya, UnitedWorld School of Law, Karnavati University

ABSTRACT

The society that we live in gives utmost importance to the institution of family. Even though times and eras change, only women have the capacity for reproduction today. In the past two decades, India has become a surrogacy hub and travel destination for couples from other nations. The number of fertility clinics providing artificial insemination, IVF, and surrogacy services to Indian and overseas couples has rapidly expanded. The numerous case studies in India and the timeline of the various legislation introduced by the Indian government to control surrogacy services are highlighted in this essay. With the most recent The Surrogacy (Regulation) Act of 2021, several rules and regulation bills from the past have been discussed. There has also been discussion of issues, and recommendations to be observed, that the most recent Indian regulation does not address.

Keywords: surrogacy; commercial surrogacy; altruistic surrogacy; assisted reproductive technology; surrogate mother
