Reproductive outsourcing is growing very rapidly in India. Many foreigners especially from the United States and Europe are renting womb in India. Moreover many Indian women are ready to become surrogate mothers.
Money is the major motivating factor as why the Indian women are ready to carry the baby in her womb which is not hers. India is the second fastest growing economy of the world and is all set to surpass United States by the year 2050 when it will become the second largest economy of the world after China. Although Indian economy is booming but it is a known fact that the wealth is concentrated in few major cities of India. There are people who are multi millionaire and there are those who are committing suicide because of poverty.
Today women find no harm in donating eggs and carrying some other person’s baby in her womb as long as she gets money. A surrogate normally earns around $7500 (Rs. 300,000); however the amount varies depending on the case. The surrogate mothers have no legal rights on the baby. They can use this money for their children’s education, for their daughter’s marriage, to buy a house, to repay a loan, to start a business etc.
Why the foreigners prefer renting a womb in India. The reasons are many fold. Commercial surrogacy was legalized in India in 2002. Indian women are still free from drugs and alcohols; they are ready to rent their wombs at low prices. Availability of high skilled medical professionals in India gives the foreigners a sense of confidence.
Moreover all these they can afford at cheap prices which is not possible if they are doing it in any developed countries. The client has to spend around $2500 here. This covers the medical and legal procedures, payment to the surrogates, traveling expenses, renting a hotel and other related expenses.

Renting a womb is a complex buying activity; here positive word of mouth plays a pivotal role. This is why whenever there is a success hundreds of inquires follow. It is like referral sales and we know that referral sales are exponential in nature.
Reproductive outsourcing is becoming a vibrant business in India. Reproductive outsourcing which started in Anand, Gujarat in India has now spread all across the country. It is argued that the rich westerners are using their money power to exploit the poor Indians. Although, the poor Indian women are making lots of money by becoming surrogates but what about ethics and morality. The government should see to it that the poor women are not exploited by the rich foreigners.
