I have seen numbers (correct me if I am wrong) that UP and Bihar Hindus living in villages have population growth rates that are very similar to their fellow Muslim villagers. And these rates are comparable to Pakistani villagers as well.
Perhaps Northern parts of India and Pakistan (and to some extant Bengal villagers) are in race to outbreed each other and the poor hardworking South-Indian Hindus.

Yes, in India, by and large muslims and hindus have similar fertility figures for a specific state/region. Usually backward states like UP and bihar have high rates for both hindus and muslims (not all north Indian states though)
Because large number of muslims( % wise) live in those states, it skews their numbers in everything (poverty, literacy or fertility rate).
