How We Scored Chandigarh’s Centres
We use the same five measures for every city. Each point comes from something the centre publishes on its own website, or from the national ART registry list. Group-wide figures (for example, a chain’s total pregnancies) count one band lower than figures for the centre itself or its lead doctor, so a big chain does not win on size alone. We do not accept payment for placement.
| What we score | Points | How points are given |

Before You Choose a Surrogacy Centre in Chandigarh
Chandigarh is a Union Territory, so its own health department handles surrogacy approvals. If you live in Punjab or Haryana, ask the centre which authority will handle your certificates.
- Check the centre’s ART registration and ask for its separate surrogacy clinic registration.
- Ask what its success rate measures (pregnancy test, pregnancy per transfer or live birth) and for which year.
- Ask how many surrogacy cases it has completed, not just IVF cycles.
- Get a written, itemised quote and ask which hospital handles the delivery.

Frequently asked questions
Which is the best surrogacy centre in Chandigarh?
On our published scoring, Birla Fertility & IVF – Sector 8C scores highest in Chandigarh (83/100). The only Chandigarh centre with a dedicated surrogacy page, plus an experienced lead doctor.
How many of these Chandigarh centres are registered at Level 2?
7 of the 7 centres are listed at Level 2 on the national ART registry list we use. Surrogacy needs a separate registration, so ask each centre for it.
How much does surrogacy cost at these Chandigarh centres?
A complete altruistic surrogacy journey costs about ₹15–18 lakh, based on our estimates for these centres. Always ask for a written, itemised quote.
Are these success rates verified?
No. They are what each centre reports on its own website, and they measure different things. We score how clearly a centre explains its figure rather than the number itself.
Why does a big chain rank below a local clinic?
Group-wide numbers count one band lower than a centre’s own figures, and centres lose points when they publish no surrogacy service or no success rate. Size alone does not decide the rank.
