  1. We have been hearing this large market story for atleast two decades. But any government which comes to power should do more and implement libertarian economic policies and wake up from socialist slumber.

  2. India is already 3 rd largest economy in the world according to purchasing power parity is an accurate figure.
    India achieving 4th largest economy is according to exchange rate which is highly fluctuating .

  3. Bhikaristan( 🇵🇰) who lives on loans and Kangludesh ( 🇧🇩) who hasn't been stable from the time India created them are using their pig🐷 logic to hate 😂😂 😂😂 some CCP bots supporting them 😂😂

  4. People are so salty these days. they have problem cause its India .. if it was any other country , People would have used the thing saying ohh India went from 5 to 6th. As they say, HATHI CHALE BAZAAR KUTTE BHOUKE HAZAR. Ignore Negative Comments. We are developing country not a developed one. We will do better in future too.

  5. Look at size of India compared to japan. Fourth largest economy IT MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING Indian are undernourished and poverty is dire situation 50%of population go hungry. While Japanese weekly salary is very high what Indian workers make in months Japanese workers make it in one day.

  6. Unbelievable that India and China were once at similar economic levels, particularly in terms of GDP per capita, around the mid-1980s to early 1990s.
    For much of history, up until the 18th century, China and India were the two largest economies in the world in terms of overall GDP output, often contributing a significant portion of global GDP.
    In the mid-1960s and 1970s, their per capita incomes were very close. For instance, in 1970, India's per capita income was $112 and China's was $113. In 1980, India was slightly ahead at $266 compared to China's $194.
    Both countries had very similar levels of GDP per capita, around $350 in the late 1980s, and were "neck-to-neck" in per capita GDP terms until about 1991.

    After the early 1990s, particularly with China's accelerated economic reforms and emphasis on manufacturing and export-led growth, their economic paths diverged significantly. China's GDP per capita grew much faster than India's. By 1999, China's GDP per capita was almost twice that of India, and by 2023, China's GDP per capita ($12,614) was more than five times that of India ($2,485).
