Objective (2) i.e., projecting the requirement
of additional finances under various possible
options to meet the FP2020 goal. In
accordance with this, the study poses and
answers the following specific questions:
What are the options available to
achieve the FP 2020 goals?
What are the projected levels of
public and private users of modern
contraceptives under different
scenarios?
What is the amount of the public fund
that will be required to achieve the FP
2020 goal under different options?
To what extent does the present
trend in resource allocation for FP
by the federal government match the
FP2020 commitment?
Does the trend in state finances for
FP match the requirement?
In order to answer these key questions,
this study undertakes a detailed review of
the public expenditure and outlay patterns
and trends from the budget documents
and other published sources of data, at
both the central and state government
levels. Alternative scenarios are developed
depicting the pathways for attaining the
FP2020 goals at the national level, and
consequent targets set by the national
government for each of the states,estimating
the financial implications proportionate to
the pathways identified.
Brief Summary of Various Sections
Section 2 explains the overall methodology
adopted for projecting the various scenarios.
Section 3 introduces the policy options or
the likely scenarios, explaining the rationale
and assumptions behind each. Section 4
presents the methods, assumptions, and
results of the projection of the users (of
modern contraceptives) in 10 high-focus
states as well as in the country; and their
implications given the FP2020 targets-
commitment context. Section 5 presents the
methods, assumptions, and results related
to the projection of the required financial
resources to meet the needs of committed
additional users (48 million) under different
options. Section 6 highlights some limitations
of the study, and Section 7 concludes by
summarizing the key takeaway messages.
A separate Data Appendix contains all the
calculations and projections, along with the

decide, freely, and for themselves, whether,
when, and how many children they want to
have’2. Hence, the implementation of the
strategy necessarily implies selecting a feasible
roadmap which would lead not only to the
quantitative target but also to a qualitative
one, including structural change in the service
delivery system.
In addition to a relatively lower visibility
and importance of the FP programme in the
overall reproductive health services, there
are three major operational challenges
that need to be addressed to decide a
feasible roadmap in the Indian context:
(1) the market of spacing contraceptives
is overwhelmingly dominated by the
private market; hence, the FP2020 target
is extremely difficult to achieve through
only government financing and action; (2)
the method mix of contraceptives is heavily
skewed toward limiting methods – more
specifically, towards female sterilization.
This is despite there being a significant
unmet need for spacing, especially among
the younger couples, thereby reflecting
a supplier-induced demand for limiting
methods. Hence, there is an urgent need to
bring some balance in the mix and expand
the informed choice set by introducing
new low-cost spacing contraceptives that
appropriately focus on the rights and choices
of women; and (3) the journey towards the
FP 2020 target needs to be assured with
a better quality of frontline services. The
need to strengthen infrastructure, human
resources management, accountability and
governance of the public health system has
been repeatedly emphasized as these are
major impediments to the effective delivery
of health and family planning services3.
to meet these challenges – especially the
first and the second challenge - keeping the
quantitative target as a fixed parameter. It is
important to note that a vision document
prepared by the Department of Health &
Family Welfare, Government of India4, has
already attempted to address the method
mix issue (the second challenge) and, albeit
partially, set a more balanced method-mix
target for each state5.The quality issues (the
third challenge) are also acknowledged and
several initiatives are proposed to improve
this. The weak link in the vision is the lack
of adequate direction on how to engage the
private sector to make sure that private
users fill in the required gap to reach the
overall quantitative target.
Option 1 in the table presents the ‘as usual’
or ‘secular trend’ scenario, i.e., the possible
outcome if the FP2020 strategy is ignored.
Option 2 would partially implement the
strategy – reaching the quantitative target
without addressing the first and second
challenge (i.e., the private sector and
method mix). Option 3 reflects a situation
where the quantitative target could be
achieved with a targeted change in method
mix. The first challenge, however, remains
unaddressed. The Options 4 and 5 are
presented showing two possible ways to
meet the first challenge (filling in the private
gap) in implementing Option 3. Option 6
presents the scenario where, in addition
to meeting other challenges, it would be
possible to offer a more diverse basket
of contraceptive choices entirely through
a public sector initiative. Option 7, on the
other hand, unfolds a scenario where the
objective of Option 6 can be met with the
involvement of the private sector.

was followed, except that the target mCPR
for each state, as given in the Government’s
vision document (see Footnote 4), was
adopted, instead of estimating it from a
projected population.
The study has not attempted to apply complex
and rigorous mathematical models to build
the projected scenarios due to serious data
constraints. The projections are, therefore,
based on a set of simplified and linearized
trends from the available data.Although serious
efforts were made to simulate the ‘most likely’
assumptions, the analysis remains constrained
due to some limitations. For example, the

Apart from the target levels of additional
users of contraceptive measures, a key
component of the projections of family
planning services is to consider the unique
users of different methods of contraceptives
on an annual basis. The difference between
additional users of contraceptive measures
annually, and ‘unique’ users is that while for
limiting methods, any ‘new’ user added in
any given year is by definition a unique user;
spacing methods require a ‘renewal’ or
continuance of adoption (of the particular
method, say condoms or OCPs) every year,
in order to be counted as a contraceptive
user. Only the proportion of existing users
from the past year, who continue with their
adoption in the current year, along with
fresh users from the current year, comprise
the ‘unique’ users for spacing methods. It
is important to note that the number of
‘unique’ users, not the ‘additional’ users,
4.2.1At the current rate of increase of
mCPR, India will have about 32.8
million additional users by 2020,
i.e., about 15 million short of the
committed FP2020 goal of 48 million.
The estimated mCPR for India in
2013 was 52.8, indicating about
125 million users of modern means
of contraceptives at present. If
contraceptive prevalence is allowed
to increase at its present trend, it is
expected to reach about 60.1 in 2020,
or 158 million users, thus adding
up an additional 32.8 million during
2013-20. Considering the 10 states
that are being analyzed in this study,
the mCPR is estimated to be 45.6,
or about 51 million current users.
Consequently, for the 10 states it
would grow to 55.8, and add another

a major share in the spacing methods.
Thus, as the FP2020 target method-
mix involves a greater share of spacing
methods in the aggregate method-
mix, the proportionate share of the
private sector in terms of the expected
additional users by 2020, is significantly
higher than the present relative shares.
4.4.3There is no scientific evidence that
the private providers would be able to
generate the additional users required
to meet FP 2020 goal on their own
resources. Hence, additional initiatives
are necessary to bridge the ‘private’
gap. The present study considers
two alternative options (Options 4
and 5) towards this: (1) by additional
public resources (Option 4), and
(2) by involving the private sector
through the Social Franchise / Social
Marketing (SF/SM) mechanisms
(Option 5). Under both the options,
it is assumed that private users will
grow on the current (secular) trend
and generate 9.79 million additional
users as given in Figure 2 creating a
gap of about 11.8 million users. Under
Option 4, it is assumed that this gap
(11.8 million) will be met by the public
providers (in addition to its required
increase) while Option 5 presents a
scenario where this gap is filled in by
the SF/SM agencies (Figure 3). In the
context of additional users, Options
6 and 7 produce the same results
respectively as Options 4 and 5 since
the total additional users are pegged
at 48 million in all cases7. Clearly,
there would be varying implications
7 However, there will be differences in the projected ‘unique’
users for Options 6 and 7 (see Section 4.5)

4.5. U nique Users of
Contraceptive Methods
4.5.1Apart from the target levels of
additional users of contraceptive
measures, a key component of
the projections of family planning
services is to consider the ‘unique’ or
‘annual’ users of different methods of
contraceptives on an annual basis.The
difference between ‘additional’ users
of contraceptive measures annually,
and ‘unique’ users arises from the
fact that while for limiting methods
any ‘new’ user added in any given
year is by definition a unique user,
spacing methods require a ‘renewal’
or continuance of adoption (of the
particular method, for example,
condoms or OCPs) every year,in order
to be counted as a contraceptive user.
Only the proportion of existing users
from the past year, who continue with
their adoption in the current year,
along with fresh users from the current
year, comprise the ‘unique’ users for
spacing methods. In brief, ‘unique’ and
‘additional’ users are the same in the
limiting method, while ‘unique’ users
are greater than ‘additional’ users
in spacing methods. It is important
to note that the number of ‘unique’
users, not the ‘additional’ users, is
considered as the base for unit cost
estimation and resource requirement
in a year (see Section 5).
4.5.2The implementation of FP2020
strategy will increase the load of
annual or unique users in India by
60 per cent between 2013-14 and
2019-20 implying a huge pressure on
the service delivery system. Table 6
presents the projected volume of
unique users in the FP2020 scenario
(i.e., 48 million additional users
with desired method mix) in the
commencing and end years (2013-14
and 2019/20) and the respective share
of the public sector, for the 10 states
and at all-India level.

4.5.3In high-priority states such as Bihar and
Uttar Pradesh, significant growth in the
level of new, unique users of modern
contraceptives will be required to
comply with the FP2020 targets. In
Bihar, the yearly number of unique
users will increase from the present
level of about 1.8 million to 4.1 million
in 2019-20. Of this projected number
of unique users, under the current
source-mix between the public and
private sector, about 0.85 million
would be expected to be covered by
the public sector FP services. Similarly,
in Uttar Pradesh, 13.8 million unique
users would be added in 2019-20 alone
in which 2.6 million will be served by
the public sector.
5. Trend of Current
Allocation and
Projection of Required
Public Finance under
Various Options
2013-2020
5.1. Data and Method
Historically, the Family Planning (formerly
known as Family Welfare) programme in India
is mostly guided and financed by the central
government while the states receive the fund
through multiple centre-to-state channels and
remain responsible for its implementation.
The financial resources are directed towards
meeting two needs: (1) fixed or committed
cost primarily to pay salaries and routine
maintenance of staff directly or indirectly
related to implementation; and (2) variable
and direct programme costs that are expected
to vary directly with the number of estimated
users. Table 7 presents the current fund flow
pattern in a nutshell.
Since the inception of NRHM (currently
known as NHM), the direct programme
support in FP flows primarily from two sources
of the central budget: (A) the flexipools (RCH
and NRHM flexipools); and (B) a part of the
Central Sector budget which is used to buy
and distribute contraceptives, supplies, and
IEC materials (see Table 7). In case of (A), state
governments are mandated to share 25 per
cent of the total requirement while the whole
of (B) is sponsored by the Central Ministry
of Health and Family Welfare. The fixed and
routine funds are obtained from the Central
Sector budget and the state’s own resources
and flow through state treasuries.
In this study, only sources (A) and (B) are
considered to project the requirement
of public finances for FP 2020. This may be
justified on the ground that since these two
components are directly linked to a number
of users, the resource requirement related
to ‘additional’ users is expected to reflect
primarily on these costs. In other words, it

is the notion of ‘incremental’ cost that is of
greater importance while estimating the total
expenditure on FP programme and services,
not the recurrent expenditure, such as on
salaries and maintenance, etc.
It is also important to note that, for estimating
financial resources, the Study has used funds
actually ‘allocated’ by the central government
to the states. These are typically reflected
in the Record of Proceedings (RoPs) of the
Annual Meeting of the National Programme
Coordination Committee (NPCC) of
NRHM for each Indian state, where the
financial outlays are finally approved. These
approved financial figures have been used
for the estimations of this Study, instead of
actual expenditure, since the former better
approximates the government’s intention to
support programmes and services and, hence,
its progress toward meeting the FP2020
commitments.
The steps to project required resource is
given in Table 8. The process leads first to an
estimation of unit cost separately for each
state and for India from direct (and variable)
allocation of funds related to FP services that
are reported in the NRHM RoPs and the
Central’s own Central Sector (CS) budget.
The unit cost for the year is derived by dividing
total allocation from 2013-14 to 2015-16 by
total estimated unique users during the same
period. This unit cost is then used as the
base for projection with a 5 per cent rate of
increase per year for the period 2014-15 to
2019-20.
There are two limitations in this method:
first, the unit cost calculated by the above
method was assumed to be same for all
options; however, this may be a bit simplistic
since the proportionate contribution of HR,
IEC, contraceptives, etc. may change across
options due to a change in method mix; and

Key findings on resource projections are
presented below (for details, see Annexes 4
and 5).
5.2. Unit Cost Estimation
5.2.1The per users cost (incremental)
for FP services by the public sector
works out to about Rs. 1500 (or
about $23). As explained earlier, the
unit cost was estimated by averaging
the allocated amount and total
public users over the last three years
(2013-16) (Table 9). It is, however,
worth noting that the unit cost is
considerably higher than average
in two states – Bihar and Madhya
Pradesh – while it is slightly higher in
Jharkhand (Figure 4).
5.2.2The unit cost for providing services
through the SF/SM channel works
out to Rs. 2379 (or, about $37) based
on the assumption that the SF/SM
agencies will work in collaboration
with the government (see Box 1).

Box 1: Estimating unit cost for providing services
through the SF/SM channels in a PPP mode
The estimation is based on data collected from various sources (such as, MSI, Janani,
etc.) which are engaged in providing FP services through the SF/SM channels.The data
reflects an approximate costing for a typical 3-year programme intended to cover
about 0.8 million unique users. The data are presented briefly in three parts: inputs,
cost, and output.
Inputs: The following five channels are assumed to provide limiting and spacing
services:
Clinic-cum-training centers owned by SF/SM agencies: 6
Private clinics with MBBS doctors’ franchisee: 210 (franchise or franchisee – kindly
check)Private clinics with Ob/Gyn specialists: 74
Outreach teams: 12
SM outlets: 18000
Costs (for 3 years):
Operating cost of own centres: Rs. 194 million
Set-up and running cost of franchise, outreach and SM outlets: Rs. 908 million
Training cost: Rs. Rs. 248 million
Management and quality support: Rs. 119 million
Frontline field operations: Rs. 445 million
Establishing rural linkages and access: Rs. 109 million
Technical support: Rs. 50 million
Total cost: Rs. 2.07 billion
It is assumed that some existing government resources (e.g., infrastructure for training,
using frontline workers for establishing rural linkage, compensation for users, etc)
are also used for this initiative. The estimated value of this support is Rs. 93 million.
Therefore:
Net cost = Rs. 2.07 billion – Rs. 93 million = Rs. 1.98 billion................................(1)
Output (for 3 years)
Unique users of sterilization: 196,000
Unique users of IUCD: 144,250
Unique users of Pill: 174,000
Unique users of condoms: 103,430
Unique users of others (inj): 214,300
TOTAL UNIQUE USERS: 831,980 .............................................................................(2)
Unit cost: Unit cost is derived by dividing (1) by (2), i.e.
Rs. 1.98 billion / 831,980 = Rs. 2379

5.3. Projection of Required
Resources
5.3.1To meet the FP2020 goal, the
government would need to spend
approximately Rs. 158 billion (US
$2.4 billion) till 2020 to provide family
planning services by publicly funded
providers (Table 10). This, however,
may not still guarantee the additional
48 million users since private users
may not increase adequately to bridge
the required gap (Option 3).
5.3.2The upper limit of required public
finance is Rs. 233 billion (US $3.6
billion) where the government fills
in the ‘private gap’ with its own
resources (in addition to the required
increase for additional public users).
This is the requirement under Option
4.The required resource would be Rs.
276 billion (US $4.2 billion) if the gap
is filled in by the SF/SM mechanism
(Option 5).The resource requirement
respectively for Options 6 and 7 are
Rs. 257 billion (US $3.9 billion) and Rs.
313 billion (US $4.8 billion).

allocation. This is a challenging task
especially for the forthcoming years
since the stipulated share has recently
been increased to 40 per cent (from
25 per cent). While the recent
modifications in routing the funds for
Centrally Sponsored Schemes (CSS)
has apparently improved the overall
figures of the State Plan budget12,
the real picture about the states’
capacity to generate additional funds
for FP2020 looks grim, given the
increasingly tighter fiscal space in
most of them and the relatively low
priority to family planning activities. It
is important to study the forthcoming
budget of 2016-17 that may reflect the
intention and direction of the state
governments (towards FP2020 goals)
more clearly.

Recommendations
Key Findings
substantially much more than its usual
rate of growth (parallel with the increase
in public users), to meet the FP2020
goal. However, there is no scientific
evidence that the private providers
would be able to generate the additional
users required to meet FP 2020 goal on
their own resources. Hence, additional
initiatives are necessary to fill in the
‘private’ gap.
• Hence, the level of required public
finance for FP2020 depends crucially on
how the private market responds to this
need. The lower limit of the required
resource for the period 2013-20 works
out to Rs. 158 billion by assuming that
the private users completely match
up to the additional requirement on
their own, while the government uses
its resources only for the public users.
The upper limit for public finance is Rs.
233 billion where the private sector
fails to grow beyond its usual rate and
the government spends its resources to
bridge the ‘private gap’ as well.
The key findings of the study are summarized • Given the constraints in the

• The trend in the use of resources at
the state level does not provide any
clear indication of desired change in the

Recommendations
• Revise the Centre-state resource
sharing formula as pertaining to the

commitment. Ring-fence the resources
for FP2000 with maximum central share
to assure the fulfillment of commitments.
• Sustain recent trend of increasing
allocation to states through NRHM
flexipools, with additional allocation to
priority states, like Bihar.
• Reverse the declining trend of product
support (contraceptives) through the
Central Sector budget and align it with
the trend in flexipool support.
• Facilitate implementation of ideal
method mix in states (especially
the EAG states) through required
technical support. . In addition, develop
a comprehensive strategy to explore
or upscale the SM/SF mechanism in
selected priority states to involve the
private sector.
• Couple programme initiatives with
a process of generating scientific
evidences to fill in some critical
knowledge gaps, in particular those
related to: (1) understanding the role
of the private sector in family planning,
(2) quality assurance mechanisms at the
ground level, and (3) various options for
involvement of community in generating
demand. In addition, undertake a more
intensive analysis of state budgets,
which is necessary not only to identify
the actual and required contribution
through states’ own resources, but also
to suggest a mechanism to track the use
of resources for FP2020.
