As of April 2021, estimates for income groups showed a significant decline in the composition of the middle class across India as a result of the impact from the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic. Pre-pandemic projections put this number at 99 million, which saw a drop of 30 million in a post-pandemic scenario. Furthermore, this reflected in a growing number within the poor income group.
