India’s 2027 census will include a transgender category, using a digital system starting April 2026.
India’s 2027 census will include a transgender category for heads of households, with data collection beginning in April 2026 through a digital, two-phase process.
The first phase, houselisting and housing census, is underway, gathering information on housing, household details, and the sex of the household head—Male, Female, or Transgender.
The second phase will collect individual demographic data, including caste, religion, and migration.
A fully digital system allows self-enumeration via a secure portal with validation checks, while field staff conduct house-to-house visits.
The Union Cabinet has approved ₹11,718 crore for the census, which will be India’s first fully digital decadal census since the 2021 version was delayed due to the pandemic.
