India's Economy - Part 1


•Tenth largest nominal GDP in the world. 
•Fourth largest in terms of purchasing power parity.
•At a rapid growth of 8.5 in 2010-11.
•The GDP is split into services (55.2%), industry (26.3%), and agriculture (18.5%).

PROBLEMS
•Even after so much growth, approximately 27% of Indians still earn under $1000 per year
•This causes a massive differences between the incomes of people in India.
•
• There is also a high rate of unemployment, reaching nearly 10.8% in 2010
•These problems can be blamed on corruption.
•Corruption has caused many business to not choose India as a location to set up.
•
•The inflation is at 9.22%, but this isn’t worrying people as much as it is in china.
