Emergency

112

It depends

There is no commercial mountain-rescue service you can simply call in Ladakh. High-altitude search and rescue is done ad hoc by the Indian Army, Air Force and ITBP from their large Leh base — usually not billed when the military carries it out, but never guaranteed and dependent on weather and availability.

Carry travel insurance with helicopter evacuation and air-ambulance repatriation to a Delhi/Chandigarh hospital (aim for a USD 50,000+ medevac limit; a domestic air-ambulance can run several lakh rupees). Acclimatise deliberately — Leh sits at 3,500 m and AMS/HAPE is the main killer here.
