Demographic Dividends for India: Evidence and Implications Based on National Transfer Accounts
Ladusingh, Laishram; Narayana, M. R. | December 2011
Abstract
Laishram Ladusingh and M. R. Narayana find for India that income per effective consumer could increase by 24.9% from 2005 to 2035, of which 9.1% is from the first demographic dividend, and 15.8% is from the second demographic dividend; and that the second dividend will be stable up to 2070. However, the authors emphasized the need for policy reorientation to fully harness India’s demographic dividends.
