Traya Report: Three in Ten Indian Men Not Sleeping Well
A big study called the Traya Hair Test Report asked almost five lakh men in India about their hair and their daily habits.
One thing it learned is that many Indian men do not sleep well.
About 3 out of every 10 men said they have some trouble sleeping.
Men in southern Indian cities like Chennai, Coimbatore and Hyderabad sleep the worst.
In Chennai, nearly one in three men has disturbed sleep.
Men in smaller northern cities like Jodhpur, Patna, Jaipur and Varanasi sleep much better.
Fewer than one in five men there have disturbed sleep.
Big cities like Mumbai, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Pune and Delhi are somewhere in the middle.
The report shows that men in fast-growing, busy cities seem to sleep worse.
It does not say exactly why, but it says sound sleep in India now follows geography.
29.4% of Indian men report problems with sleep, with 22.1% describing disturbed sleep and 7.3% reporting slight problems, per an analysis of 4,89,721 hair test responses.
All five cities with the highest share of disturbed sleep are in southern India: Chennai 30.9%, Coimbatore 30.4%, Vijayawada 29.8%, Visakhapatnam 29.3% and Hyderabad 27.6%.
Tamil Nadu leads states with 30.4% disturbed sleep, followed by Andhra Pradesh at 29.8% and Telangana at 27.6%.
Northern cities sleep best, with Jodhpur at 17.4% and Patna, Jaipur and Varanasi around 17.8%; Rajasthan and Bihar lead states at 17.6%.
Metros sit in the middle: Mumbai and Bengaluru at 24.5%, Kolkata 23.5%, Pune 22.7% and Delhi at a comparatively restful 21.0%.

Data presentation perspective
Causal interpretation perspective
What the sleep geography means
Data presentation perspective
The pattern shows that fast-growing economies and long working days come with worse sleep in metro cities, while smaller, slower cities get better rest.
Causal interpretation perspective
The report itself says the data does not explain why and makes no medical claims, so any link between economics and sleep quality remains a pattern, not a proven cause.
Source and framing of the findings
Data presentation perspective
The report is presented as a large-scale, credible analysis of nearly five lakh men that establishes clear geographic differences in sleep.
Causal interpretation perspective
The article is paid-for, sponsored brand content published by ThePrint, with journalists not involved in reporting or writing it, so the findings should be read as marketing material.
