Household Assets and Indebtedness in States of India

Abstract

The present contribution makes the seventeenth part of the Social Change Indicators series. We have previously deliberated on several social and economic issues and the topics have included vulnerable households across social classes, poverty, migration, living conditions, social protection, displacement of labour, old-age health and morbidity conditions, women’s time use patterns, and intimate partner violence. In this part, we examine the assets and indebtedness of households across rural and urban areas, occupational types as well as social classes in different states of India.
