India's Population compared to the World
With the sheer size of individual states itself, India presents many opportunities

Here’s how India’s 1.4 billion people compare to your country.
Large numbers are always tricky to understand. While India has the largest population on earth and will soon become the world’s third largest economy, it is still widely misunderstood and underestimated.
How does your country compare according to Visual Capitalist:
1️⃣ Karnataka state alone matches the UK's population (70M)
2️⃣ Maharashtra, a single Indian state, has more people than Japan (125M).
3️⃣ Uttar Pradesh? It equals Brazil and Ecuador combined (232M).
Measured by rising wealth, expanding economies and the potential for new development and business expansion, 14 of the 15 growth hubs globally will be located in Asia (according to Savills).
And India will be home to 4 out of the 10 fastest developing cities by 2033.
As these urban centers develop, they're creating opportunities in healthcare, education, real estate and business overall. The question isn't whether to engage with this market, but when.
Still question the opportunity?
