However, despite its position as the sixth largest economy in the world, India faces a unique challenge with its relatively low per capita income compared to the other major economies.

While GDP remains a key metric in assessing a nation's economic strength, the State of India highlights the importance of examining per capita income as a crucial indicator of individual prosperity within the country.

India's lower per capita income is rooted in several socioeconomic factors. The nation's vast population of more than 1.3 billion people presents a complex challenge to ensure the equitable distribution of wealth and resources.

Economic disparities between regions and communities further exacerbate the income gap, creating pockets of prosperity amid areas struggling with poverty and economic hardship.
