In a country as vast and complex as India, true understanding doesn’t come from assumptions—it comes from listening. At India Speaks Research Labs (ISRL), we are dedicated to capturing the pulse of the nation through deep, data-driven research grounded in the everyday realities of Indian citizens.

Whether you’re a policymaker, journalist, academic, civil society leader, or simply a curious citizen, our work helps you make sense of what India thinks, feels, and aspires to become.

Who We Are

India Speaks Research Labs is one of India’s leading independent research organizations focused on public opinion, political behavior, social identity, and grassroots realities. We specialize in:

• Large-scale surveys and opinion polling

• Field ethnography and qualitative research

• Data analytics and visualization

• Custom research solutions for institutions and media partners

Our mission is simple: to amplify the real voices of India—beyond echo chambers, beyond elite narratives.

What Makes Us Different

• Grounded Research: We work directly in the field, across urban and rural areas, speaking to Indians in their own languages and cultural contexts.

• Methodological Rigor: Our tools and processes are built on scientific best practices in survey design, sampling, and statistical analysis.

• Transparency: We believe data should be accountable. Many of our findings are available through public reports, open-access datasets, and interactive dashboards.

• Customization: We offer tailored research solutions for organizations that want to go beyond surface-level insights.

Introducing This Blog: Voices of a Nation

Through Voices of a Nation, we aim to democratize access to high-quality, reliable research—and bring you closer to the India that exists beyond newsrooms and dashboards.
