Where accessible toilets concentrate
- Malls and multiplexes: accessible stalls on every restroom floor — the most consistent option.

- Newer pay-and-use complexes: many include at least one accessible cubicle.

What makes a toilet accessible
A wheelchair-accessible toilet needs: a wide door, enough turning space, grab bars beside the seat, a lower seat and washbasin, and an emergency call facility where possible. A wheelchair symbol on the door is the signal to look for.
Your legal rights
The RPwD Act 2016 mandates accessibility in public buildings, including restrooms. Accessible India Campaign audits push compliance — complaints about a specific building can be raised with the local disability commissioner.
