Here peopel started BS sir we are good we are bestPer capita income parity is not an ideal metric to measure the BPL people earning and super rich class.
Its not that lowest of the low Below povery line(BPL) people are getting the income shown as per capita income.
As it includes the super rich and all so the divided income doesn't trickle down to the poor as shown in the per capita income.
India rich upper middle/upper upper class is about 3.5 times the size of Pakistan with a population which is 6.5 time higher, numbers not the actual income of rich as obviously rich are much richer there like Ambanis, Adanis and likes.
And that leaves the lower income BPL numbers swell as well compared to Pakistan.
India's top 1% owned more than 40.5% of its total wealth in 2021, according to a new report by Oxfam. In 2022, the number of billionaires in the country increased to 166 from from 102 in 2020, the report said. Meanwhile, it added that the poor in India "are unable to afford even basic necessities to survive"
