Autologus stem cell transplant (ASCT) has evolved over last 5 decades a lot. There are enormous advances in the technique right from mobilization, collection, counting of stem cells to preservation, conditioning and peritransplant care. By the end of this decade we feel necessity to explore the scope and update the details and minutes of ASCT particularly in oncology grossly as well as disease-wise. We delineate the basics of the procedure and advances till date. Also we aimed to summarise the implementation of these advances in India by analyzing the data and information in published articles. This may further help physicians to understand the complex procedure with simplicity and may guide the research workers and authors as reference tool.
