I still have a year before I turn 50 and can join AARP the American Association of Retired Persons.
My Dad was visiting me and he keeps talking about the need for Senior living facilities like Sunrise.
Does India present an opportunity for something like AARP and/or Sunrise. With all the real estate funds being set up maybe there are already efforts under way. For entrepreneurs who want to get into this maybe Tina Ambani could provide funding. While India has the largest young population it probably has one of the larger senior populations as well.

Hello again,
I guess I posted here in 2009, 5 years ago. I finally have gotten my dream project of designing a community for senior citizens in Bangalore, with an emphasis on sustainable living and proximity to nature.
Given the overwhelming response from contacted me in 2009, when I moved from Boston to India, I reach out to this forum again, for feedback on what they perceive as their wish-list in a senior housing community in India.
I have done senior housing projects in the US, and know the way about in India as well. But if there are senior citizens or children in this forum who have their parents contemplating on retirement communities, I would love to hear from them.
Regards,
Kanchana
We at UCC Care Pvt. Ltd. have launched a lifestyle product for senior citizens under the brand “The Golden Estate”, this is a concept which has been developed after extensive research and is designed to cater to the unique cultural and social fabric of India. The Golden Estate is one of the few non-real-estate based concept which focuses on services rather than square feet. Do visit our site http://www.thegoldenestate.com to learn more about this.
We winds and clouds holding company is working on projects named “celebration sundays”, exclusive for senior living in kerala. The project will start in early 2010. this will be a big opportunity for many NRIs to take care their parents in a better way.
