The
IndiaAI Independent Business Division (IBD), in partnership with the National Cancer Grid (NCG), launched the Cancer AI & Technology Challenge (CATCH) Grant Program in 2025. This initiative aims to accelerate the development and adoption of Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions to improve cancer care in India. The program supports innovations in screening, diagnostics, treatment, and healthcare operations across the country’s cancer hospitals.
The CATCH
Grant Program provides financial support to teams combining technology innovators and clinical experts. Up to ₹50 lakh is awarded per project for piloting AI solutions within the NCG hospital network. Successful pilots may receive an additional ₹1 crore for scaling up deployment nationwide. The grants are co-funded by IndiaAI and NCG. The program targets projects that demonstrate clinical impact and operational readiness for Indian healthcare settings.
The challenge prioritises AI tools that can make difference in cancer care. Key categories include AI-enabled screening methods,
diagnostic imaging analysis, clinical decision support systems, patient engagement platforms, operational efficiency improvements, research facilitation, and data curation technologies. These areas address critical gaps in cancer detection, treatment planning, patient management, and healthcare delivery.
Applications are open to startups, health technology companies, academic institutions, and public or private hospitals. Joint applications from
Clinical Leads (hospitals or clinicians) and Technical Leads (technology developers) are encouraged to ensure practical relevance and technical feasibility. Proposals are evaluated based on technical maturity, feasibility, and alignment with healthcare needs. Applications must be submitted online by 2 September 2025 through the IndiaAI and NCG portal.
The program stresses responsible AI development tailored to Indian healthcare contexts. Solutions must undergo clinical validation to ensure safety and effectiveness. Ethical deployment is emphasised to protect patient privacy and promote trust. The initiative supports AI technologies that are ready for real-world implementation and scalable across the NCG network.
IndiaAI is an Independent Business Division under the
Digital India Corporation, Ministry of Electronics and IT. It implements the IndiaAI Mission to democratise AI benefits, encourage technological self-reliance, and ensure ethical AI use.
The
National Cancer Grid is a network of cancer centres, research bodies, and healthcare organisations committed to raising cancer care standards in India. Together, they aim to harness AI to transform cancer diagnosis and treatment.
