From stigma to scale: How Antara is building India’s senior-care ecosystem

BusinessFrom stigma to scale: How Antara is building India’s senior-care ecosystem

As attitudes towards ageing shift in post-pandemic India, Antara Senior Care is carving out a multi-vertical elder-care platform spanning senior living, care homes and health products. In a conversation with CNBC-TV18, Executive Chairperson Tara Singh Vachani outlines how rising longevity, changing family structures and a growing focus on wellness are driving demand—while regulatory gaps and lack of standards remain the sector’s biggest scaling challenge.

India is ageing fast. Seniors already account for 11% of the population. By 2050, that share will double to 21% – meaning one in every five Indians will be aged above 60.
