The Growing Elderly Population in India
According to a National Statistical Office (NSO) report titled Elderly in India 2021, the elderly population in India is on the rise. It is projected to increase by 41 percent over a decade, from 138 million in 2021 to 194 million in 2031. Furthermore, statistics from statista.com for 2021-31 indicate that the growth rate of the elderly population is expected to be five times higher than that of the total population. With life expectancy in India also on the rise, reaching around 70 years in 2023, it is crucial for individuals of all age groups, especially those over 40, to become conscious of and start planning for their retirement years.
