The Tata group's efforts in the healthcare sector span the spectrum — from tackling communicable diseases like malaria and tuberculosis, to improving maternal and neonatal health, and increasing access to cancer care in the country.

The group's commitment to healthcare has been evident from the time founder Jamsetji Tata ensured his mill workers had access to dispensaries, well before these were commonplace in India. Since then, the Tatas have established the Tata Memorial Centre (1941) — giving India its first quality cancer care facility — followed by the inauguration of the Tata Medical Centre (2011), that further helped ease the cancer care burden in the country.

The Tata Trusts' partnerships with state and central governments, NGOs and other philanthropic organisations has led to impactful initiatives to prevent and treat communicable diseases, improve nutrition and promote fortification, and build knowledge and infrastructure for hygiene and sanitation in the remotest parts of the country. 

Cancer care

Cancer care

Since it established the Tata Memorial Centre in 1941, the Tata group has been leading the fight against cancer in India, ensuring every patient has access to affordable, quality cancer care, through its centres, and even the National Cancer Grid, which uses technology to establish standards in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of the disease.

Maternal & neonatal health

Tata Steel Foundation's MANSI provides in-person training to 'sahiyyas' (local women and community health workers) who are taught everything they need to know about prenatal and post partum care for mother and child. The network has grown to cover a population of 50 lakh and has led to a marked reduction in maternal and neonatal mortality rates. Arrow
Nutrition and food fortification

Nutrition & food fortification

Tata Trusts' flagship nutrition programme, The India Nutrition Initiative (TINI), has been at the forefront of solving the country's malnutrition problem. TINI's work encompasses the fortification of staple foods with micronutrients, the refurbishment of anganwadis (childcare centres) and the training of its workers through the National Nutrition Mission.

Water, sanitation & hygiene

The Tata Trusts' Tata Water Mission (TWM) has three critical components: water, sanitation and hygiene (WaSH). The programme is focused on reforming water demand, recharging water availability, operating and maintaining water supply systems, preserving water quality, and ensuring safe sanitation, hygiene and waste management, including menstrual waste.

Mental healthcare

Mental healthcare

In India, an estimated 150 million people suffer from a mental disorder that needs active intervention. However, mental health remains a neglected aspect of healthcare along with woefully inadequate services in India. Tata Trusts has stepped in with Udaan, a special initiative to reform and transform mental healthcare in India. Arrow
