The India growth story has been repeated by everyone. There are arguments as to whether India's GDP would grow at 8.5% or 9% or higher. Numbers are playing a key game. Therefore, it is interesting to note that the numbers for the standard of living in the country give a different picture altogether. While GDP has been growing, but then so has the population of the country. As a result, India's GDP per person, which is an indicator for the standard of living, actually ranks at amongst the lowest in the world.
