India mental health market is expected to grow significantly by 2028 expanding at a reasonable CAGR during the forecast period (2022-2028). Mental health includes our emotional, psychological, and social well-being. It affects how we think, feels, and act as we cope with life.

About 7.5% of Indians suffer from some mental disorder and predicts that by end of this year roughly 20% of India will suffer from mental illnesses. Also, the mental health workforce in India is not up to the mark and there is a huge shortage of psychiatrists and psychologists in the country as compared to the number of people suffering from mental health issues. WHO states that in India, (per 100,000 population) there are psychiatrists (0.3), nurses (0.12), psychologists (0.07), and social workers (0.07), while the desirable number is anything above 3 psychiatrists and psychologists per 100,000 population. Moreover, fear and anxiety about the disease and the overwhelmed healthcare system have spread through the population, causing a decline in mental health throughout the country. Furthermore, There has been an increase of over 50% among senior citizens when it comes to mental health disorders, India-based Agewell Foundation. As per a survey of 5000 elderly people by Agewell, around 63% reported developing symptoms of depression which was due to loneliness and social isolation caused by restrictions brought in to curb the spread of the virus. 1 in 5 Indians is expected to suffer from depression in their lifetime.
