| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The article examines economic conditions in India and that country's middle class. Conflicting estimates of the population of India's middle class are cited as an indication of the difficulty in estimating economic indicators in developing countries due to the large informal sector of their economies. Economic and social indicators for India including its large percentage of younger adults, urbanization and consumption suggesting India's middle class will increase in size are discussed. |
