Big
Leap Forward
Good
news for India’s wealth creators: The country’s
middle class is improving and they represent consumption
and growing aspirations. So we can look forward to a growing
tribe of rich in future.
Indian
households earning Rs 2-10 lakh per annum (the middle class)
grew almost 2.5 times between 1995-96 and 2001-02. This
is projected to rise further, to touch 28.5 million by 2009-10
– when almost 13 per cent population will be in this
category.
North
accounts for the highest share of people in most income
categories apart from the super rich, where the west leads.
Mumbai tops the list of rich cities. However, the the highest
growth is in cities like Surat and Nagpur.•
