Who We Are

IndiaSpend is an award-winning public-interest journalism initiative that uses data and evidence to tell stories, backed by extensive fieldwork across the country. We focus on areas that are crucial to overall development and progress, and contribute extensively to both the understanding and shaping of policy.

For over a decade now, IndiaSpend has been producing high quality reports and stories and has won numerous awards for our in-depth work in areas including natural farming, women in the Indian workforce, Covid-19 data, air quality monitoring, tuberculosis policy and cancer care in India. We employ cutting-edge technology for proprietary projects, including air quality assessments for both particulate matter and gases, and collaborate with partners who are authorities in their respective fields.

Our work is frequently cited by leading universities the world over and republished by Indian media. Our total number of citations in leading universities has crossed 1,200.

Why Support Us

Every month, we release at least 15 special research reports supported by extensive boots-on-the-ground reporting on foundational issues such as health, education, environment and gender.

These reports take anywhere from a week to several months to produce and combine on-ground reporting and data crunching.

We do not believe in paywalls, and we rely on donors like you to keep us independent. Help us keep our focus on India’s interests and our stories free.

You can set up recurring monthly, yearly contributions or make a one-time donation.

IndiaSpend is a non-profit and a project of The Spending & Policy Research Foundation based in Lower Parel in Mumbai, and registered as a Charitable Trust with the Charity Commissioner, Mumbai.
