How we selected these hospitals
A hospital appears on this page when Hematology is among its listed specialties and it is located in India. Hospitals are not ranked by a proprietary "best" score — the order follows the listed rating (highest first), the same field shown on each hospital's profile.
How to Select the Best Hospital for Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) in India?
Choosing the right hospital for hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (hsct) is one of the most important decisions in your treatment journey. A few factors are worth weighing before you decide:
International Accreditation
Look for a hospital with international accreditation such as JCI or NABH — see the accreditation badges shown for each hospital below.
Specialization
Check that the hospital's listed specialties actually include hematology rather than only general care.
Capacity and Track Record
Bed count and year established (shown below for each hospital) are a reasonable proxy for scale and operating experience.
Transparent Costs
Ask for an itemised, all-inclusive estimate — hospital charges, room category and stay — before you travel. Our cost calculator (linked below) gives a starting estimate.
Understanding Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT)
Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT), commonly known as Bone Marrow Transplantation (BMT), is a life-saving procedure used to reconstitute a patient's haematopoietic system following high-dose chemotherapy or radiation, with allogeneic HSCT achieving long-term disease-free survival rates of 50–80% depending on disease type, donor compatibility, and patient fitness.
Clinical Overview
- Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplantation (HSCT) is the infusion of pluripotent haematopoietic progenitor cells — sourced from bone marrow, peripheral blood, or umbilical cord blood — into a conditioned recipient with the goal of restoring normal haematopoiesis and, in allogeneic settings, inducing a graft-versus-tumour (GVT) immune effect.
- The procedure is broadly classified as autologous (patient's own stem cells re-infused after myeloablative chemotherapy) or allogeneic (donor cells from a matched sibling, matched unrelated donor, haploidentical relative, or cord blood unit).
- The physiological impact is profound: conditioning regimens such as BuCy (busulfan + cyclophosphamide), FluBu (fludarabine + busulfan), or TBI-based protocols ablate the recipient's marrow, rendering them profoundly immunosuppressed and pancytopenic for 2–6 weeks before donor engraftment restores marrow function.
Who is a Candidate?
- ELIGIBLE CONDITIONS (Malignant): Acute Myeloid Leukaemia (AML) in CR1/CR2, Acute Lymphoblastic Leukaemia (ALL) in CR1 (high-risk) or CR2, Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia (CML) in accelerated/blast phase or TKI-refractory, Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) with IPSS-R intermediate or higher, Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma (relapsed/refractory or high-risk), Multiple Myeloma (autologous HSCT as consolidation post-induction), Myelofibrosis (allogeneic HSCT for DIPSS+ intermediate-2 or high risk)
- ELIGIBLE CONDITIONS (Non-Malignant): Severe Aplastic Anaemia (SAA), Thalassaemia Major (Lucarelli Class I–III), Sickle Cell Disease with major organ complications, SCID and primary immunodeficiencies, Fanconi Anaemia, Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome, Hurler Syndrome and selected lysosomal storage disorders, POEMS syndrome
- ELIGIBLE CONDITIONS (Autoimmune — Investigational/Specialist Centres): Refractory Multiple Sclerosis (MS), Systemic Sclerosis, Crohn's Disease (autologous HSCT under EBMT guidelines)
- REQUIRED PRE-TRANSPLANT DIAGNOSTICS: Bone marrow biopsy and trephine with cytogenetics (karyotype, FISH), molecular profiling (NGS panel for FLT3, NPM1, IDH1/2, TP53, ASXL1), HLA typing (high-resolution 10/10 allele-level for patient and donor), PET-CT scan (for lymphoma patients to confirm complete remission pre-transplant), ECHO (left ventricular ejection fraction must typically be ≥ 45%), Pulmonary Function Tests (DLCO ≥ 50% predicted), Creatinine clearance (GFR ≥ 40–60 mL/min depending on regimen), Liver function and bilirubin (Child-Pugh scoring), CMV/EBV/HSV/VZV/HBV/HCV/HIV serology for patient and donor, HCT-CI comorbidity scoring, Dental clearance and ENT evaluation, Fertility counselling and sperm/oocyte cryopreservation discussion

Risks to be aware of
- HSCT carries significant treatment-related morbidity and mortality that every patient and family must understand prior to proceeding.
- The overall treatment-related mortality (TRM) at 100 days ranges from 2–5% for autologous HSCT in fit patients to 10–25% for myeloablative allogeneic HSCT in high-risk or older patients, largely driven by infection, organ toxicity, and GVHD.
Why GAF Healthcare
- GAF Healthcare provides comprehensive end-to-end non-medical support for international HSCT patients and their attendants, ensuring that logistical complexity never becomes a barrier to accessing life-saving treatment.
