With India’s strong economic growth and increased presence and visibility (BRICS member) on the international stage, India has become an emerging donor of aid. India sees its development assistance programmes as different from traditional “donor-recipient relationships” and stresses the aspect of “development partnership”. It is considered that development aid is part of India’s long-term strategic and economic objectives.
In 2014, India became the first implementing country donating to Gavi; committing US$ 4 million over a four-year period from 2013–2016.
In 2018, India doubled its contribution to Gavi, committing US$ 8 million for the four-year period from 2018–2022. Prime Minister Modi has emerged as a leading champion for immunisation in India and globally, enabling India to accelerate its efforts in driving towards universal immunisation.
At the Global Vaccines Summit on 4 June 2020, PM Modi pledged US$ 15 million for Gavi’s 2021–2025 programme.
Proceeds are funds made available to Gavi from donor contributions and commitments, either through: cash payments made to Gavi, through frontloading via the capital markets of a future donor commitment to IFFIm; or Advance Market Commitment (AMC) funds released to Gavi via the World Bank. IFFIm proceeds are allocated over five-year periods coinciding with Gavi’s strategic periods. Proceeds for the current and future strategic periods are indicative until the end of each period and could be revised following changes in market conditions (interest rates or foreign exchange rates), the signing of new pledge(s) and/or changes in IFFIm’s disbursement profile.

General notes regarding IFFIm contributions:
Due to IFFIm’s nature as a frontloading vehicle, yearly contributions paid into IFFIm can differ significantly from yearly proceeds transferred to Gavi.
While IFFIm grants are irrevocable and legally binding, they are subject to a Grant Payment Condition that can potentially reduce the donor’s amount due, in the event that a Gavi-supported programme country is in protracted arrears with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Since 29 June 2021, no reduction applies, as all countries from the reference portfolio have cleared their arrears with the IMF.
