Shekhar Bhatia reports on the latest industry to be outsourced from England to India: Child Birth.

• Couples and singles pay up to £25,000 to have children through surrogate mothers in India.
• Estimates suggests that 2,000 such births happened in 2011.

• The clinics are unregulated and the legality of the practice is questionable.
