At least 178 community members have passed away since the start of the coronavirus pandemic in the country in March 2020. Parsiana compiled death figures from 11 major locations in India where significant Parsi populations exist. The Bombay count of 
105 has been obtained from the Worli Prayer Hall where a large number of Covid-19 victims are cremated. Others may have opted for crematoria closer to their homes. Figures for Surat (26), Navsari (22), Ahmedabad and Poona (seven each), Delhi (four), Nagpur (three), Calcutta and Hyderabad (two each), and Madras and Bangalore (nil) have been supplied on the basis of best information available by the location’s anjuman office bearers/trustees.
Forty-four Parsis passed away in Bombay in April 2021 alone due to the virus. Chairman of The Prayer Hall Services and Maintenance Trust that runs the Worli Prayer Hall, Dinshaw Tamboly told Parsiana on April 22 that the previous day alone "there were five funerals, today two already done and two more are on the way to the Hall… The whole demographic profile is going to take a severe beating.”
Adil Nargolwala, vice president of the Delhi Parsi Anjuman noted, "Quite a few of our members are ill either in hospital or at home, hope all recover well.” Air Chief Marshal (retd) Fali Major, president of the Bangalore Parsi Zoroastrian Anjuman stated: "We have not lost any of our community members due to Covid-19… While we did have a few community members who tested positive, they all recovered and are doing fine now.”
