Summary
Instances of Breast cancer have increasingly been reported from various parts of the world since last five decades [1] [2]. The mortality rate and the number of new cases is increasing exponentially owing to lack of awareness, inefficient and last stage identification of breast cancer.

Detection and diagnosis of breast cancer may reduce the increasing burden of the disease. With this background, a Population and Hospital based cancer registries have been studied to understand the epidemiology of breast cancer trends in India. Results: In this study it has been observed that the Age Adjusted Rate and Mortality rate of Breast Cancer has been reported as 25.8 and 12.7 per 100,000 women respectively. Conclusion: Additional awareness & screening programs early diagnosis and treatment facilities can only significantly improve the breast cancer’s clinical picture in India
