Скачать или смотреть Rich Nation, Poor People? The Reality Of The Fourth Largest Economy | Cracknomics Ep 45

India is on track to become one of the world’s top 3 largest economies, surpassing Japan and Germany in GDP. But behind the headlines lies a stark reality: despite this growth, India’s per capita income remains one of the lowest among major economies — just $2,880 compared to the U.S.’s $89,000 or Germany’s $55,910. Being a “large economy” doesn’t mean the average Indian is better off. Deep income inequality means that while billionaires are multiplying — with names like Adani seeing wealth skyrocket — half the population still owns just 3% of the country’s wealth. The top 1% hold over 40%. Most people aren’t experiencing the benefits of growth; in fact, the government still provides free rations to over 800 million citizens.

In this episode of #Cracknomics, we break down why GDP alone doesn’t tell the full story of a country’s development — and why India's economic success masks a growing divide.

🔔 Watch till the end to understand why GDP alone can’t define a nation’s progress.
