Knee and hip replacement in India both start from about $4,000 for one joint at Shifara partner hospitals. These are indicative figures. Your own estimate depends on your condition, your chosen hospital, your implant and your care plan.
Knee replacement cost in India
Total knee replacement replaces the damaged or worn surfaces of the knee joint with artificial components. Indicative package prices are:
- One knee: $4,000 to $5,000
- Both knees: $6,000 to $8,000
- Robotic-assisted surgery: an additional $800
Hip replacement cost in India
Hip replacement replaces a damaged hip joint with an artificial implant. Indicative package prices are:
- One hip: $4,000 to $5,000
- Both hips: $8,500 to $10,000
- Robotic-assisted surgery: an additional $1,000
If an earlier joint replacement needs redoing
Joint revision surgery has an indicative package price of $5,500 to $7,500. Send your earlier operation notes and current scans so a surgeon can review your case.
What changes your estimate
- One joint or two: having both joints replaced costs more than one
- Implant: your estimate depends on the implant your surgeon recommends
- Technique: robotic-assisted surgery adds to the price
- Hospital and room category: prices differ between hospitals, and with the room you choose
- Your health: your condition and care plan affect your final estimate
Planning your recovery
Joint replacement recovery needs movement, physiotherapy and patience, so ask your surgeon how long to stay in India before flying home. We help coordinate your rehabilitation, your recovery stay, your return travel when you are cleared, and follow-up consultations after you return home. If you need a supervised stay after discharge, see our step-down care service.
