Data vintage. The figures are for 2022-23 and have not been refreshed since this map was made. See the newer figures for this measure in the interactive atlas.
Data note. Superseded by the rural map (X206) and the urban map (X207): MoSPI publishes household spending 2023-24 for rural and urban India separately, with no combined state series, so this single map cannot be rebuilt. The figures here are for 2022-23.
