Reply to comment by brinjal_ke_kama in India’s overall exports crosses an all time high of $750 billion by Falls_stuff

Generally population is a benefit, as in the case of China, which has the same population. After all more people = more people to generate GDP, which is why China has the world's second largest GDP.

India... well population appears to hit differently in India.

Yeah and that's why stuff like big manufacturing and exports is needed. To raise the GDP per capita.

And while boon of high population is higher export numbers, its bane is that GDP per capita growth is slower.

But you'll ignore that, of course. Cos mom's basement feels nicer that way.

Again... China seems to manage with six+ times the GDP of India, and they were colonized as well, plus they went through that dreadful period of actually trying to be Communist.

1.4 billion people in India, 1.4 billion people in China.

China started opening its markets in the 70s while India did it in the 90s.

Man stop being dumb on reddit and read some useful stuff.

I guess you should have opened your markets a bit earlier. 🤷‍♂️

China also killed millions of its people in the great leap forward.

Pardon me if we don't follow the same approach
