Description

Income and wealth distribution in India. If you think you're middle class or it takes a tremendous amount of wealth to become the top 1% of India by income, chances are, you're wrong by a huge margin. This is because of the lack of information about the wealth distribution in India. To understand whether India is a rich country or poor, we need to consider the average family income, what exactly are middle class and many such things. That's why, in this FutureIQ episode, we decided to break down the actual data for you and help you understand the reality of the unequal wealth distribution in India.
