Trends in Working Age Population Percentage in India from 1990 to 2022

India's working-age population increased from 58% in 1990 to 67.8% in 2022, driven by its young demographic and population growth. The growth accelerated in the 2000s, as economic liberalization policies expanded job opportunities, boosting labor force participation. By the late 2010s, the percentage stabilized, with recent figures reflecting India’s position as one of the world’s largest workforces. This trend underscores India's potential demographic dividend, contingent on effective policies in education, skill development, and employment.
