The number of disability adjusted life year across the south Asian country of India due to air pollution was approximately 5.53 million in 2019, down from around 68 million in 1990. A significant decrease in DALY was seen over the years from 1990 in the country.

(in millions)
One DALY represents the loss of the equivalent of one year of full health. Using DALYs, the burden of diseases that cause early death but little disability (eg. drowning or measles) can be compared to that of diseases that do not cause death but do cause disability (e.g. cataract causing blindness).
