Delhi High Court allows posthumous reproduction without spouse with consent from egg/sperm owner.
The Delhi High Court has ruled that posthumous reproduction is permissible in India without a spouse, provided there is consent from the deceased's egg or sperm owner. This decision arose from a case involving an elderly couple seeking to use their deceased son's frozen sperm for surrogacy. The court mandated Sir Ganga Ram Hospital to release the sperm, clarifying it cannot be used for commercial purposes.
