The Gini coefficient is a number between 0 and 1 or 100, where 0 represents perfect equality (everyone has the same income). Meanwhile, an index of 1 or 100 implies perfect inequality (one person has all the income, and everyone else has no income).
According to the World Bank, the Gini coefficient in India was 0.339 in 2009, [17] down from previous values of 0.43 (1995–96) and 0.45 (2004–05). [18] However, in 2016, the International Monetary Fund, in its regional economic outlook for Asia and the Pacific, said that India's Gini coefficient rose from 0.45 (1990) to 0.51 (2013). [19]
Gini coefficient diagram. You can think of the horizontal axis as percent of people and the vertical axis as the percent of income those people receive. Therefore the curves always start and end at the same places, where 0% of people make 0% of the country's income and 100% of people making 100% of the total income.
The Italian statistician Corrado Gini developed the Gini coefficient and published it in his 1912 paper Variabilità e mutabilità (English: variability and mutability). [16] [17] Building on the work of American economist Max Lorenz, Gini proposed using the difference between the hypothetical straight line depicting perfect equality and the actual line depicting people's incomes as a measure ...

As an overview, India's per capita net national income or NNI was around Rs. 1,69,496 in 2022-23. [1] The per-capita income is a crude indicator of the prosperity of a country.
English: Gini coefficient diagram, based on the version by Bluemoose/BenFrantzDale. You can think of the horizontal axis as percent of people and the vertical axis as the percent of income those people receive.
The range of the Gini index is between 0 and 1 (0% and 100%), where 0 indicates perfect equality and 1 (100%) indicates maximum inequality. The Gini index is the most frequently used inequality index. The reason for its popularity is that it is easy to understand how to compute the Gini index as a ratio of two areas in Lorenz curve diagrams ...
