Both Indian prices are clinics' own starting prices for patients in India. Indira IVF's ₹1,00,000 Basic IVF excludes blood tests, pharmacy medicines, freezing and donor charges, and its Advanced IVF/ICSI starts at ₹1,80,000 with blastocyst culture, freezing of 2 embryos and 1 transfer (Indira IVF). Apollo Fertility gives ₹1,60,000 to ₹2,80,000 per cycle in Hyderabad in a clinic article (Apollo Fertility). Neither page says whether patients from abroad pay the same, so ask for a written quote in your own currency and check what the medicines will cost.

Planning the trip from Canada
- Get a written quoteSend the clinic your referral or reason for an IVF cycle and ask for an itemised price in writing, with the date and what happens if the result needs follow-up.
- Before you goCheck what your home health service funds first. NICE in England recommends up to three cycles under 40, but local health boards decide, and the HSE in Ireland funds one round for eligible couples.
- Before you goAsk the clinic for a written plan with dates, medicines and every fee, and agree how embryos are stored if you do not use them all.
- Entry rulesCheck the official advice before booking: Canadian citizens (travel.gc.ca).
- LanguageHindi and many regional languages; English is used in private hospitals.
- After you returnTell your GP if you are pregnant after treatment abroad, with the clinic’s report on the transfer.
- After you returnSevere tummy pain, swelling or breathlessness after egg collection can be a reaction to the hormones and needs urgent care.

IVF in India from Canada: questions
How much is an IVF cycle in India for Canadians?
The published prices we found work out at C$1,470–C$4,130 at the clinic, from Indira IVF and Apollo Fertility. Adding a rough travel estimate of C$3,560 for a return flight and a hotel, the trip comes to about C$5,030. Your own fares and dates will change that part.
Is it cheaper than paying privately in Canada?
Yes, by about C$3,970 on these example figures: the lowest self-pay price we found at home is C$9,000. The gap shrinks if your travel costs more than our estimate.
How long is the wait for an IVF cycle in Canada?
We have not found an official waiting-time figure for this in Canada.
How many days do I need in India?
About 2 to 3 weeks for a fresh cycle if you start the injections at the clinic; less if the clinic lets you start them at home and come for the last scans, egg collection and transfer. That is our planning estimate, not medical advice; ask the clinic for its schedule in writing.
Will my provincial plan pay for it?
Ask your provincial health plan before booking; we have not reviewed provincial rules for planned care abroad.
