Abstract Worldwide breast cancer has the highest incidence of all cancers in women. Over 100,000 new cases of breast cancers are estimated to be diagnosed annually in India. A fourfold increase in breast cancer incidences has been observed from the year 1980 to 2010 in both developed and developing countries. Generally this cancer is associated with lifestyle, age, socio-economic and demographic factors. In this study, it is found that the incidence of breast cancer is more common in rural area and in the age group of 36 to 55 year of women. Better approaches should be carried out to reduce this incidence by awareness and screening for early detection and availability of treatment facilities. It will help to reduce the burden of both incidence and mortality of breast cancer.
