&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The average annual income of MLAs in India is Rs 24.59 lakh, with Karnataka&amp;rsquo;s 203 MLAs reporting the highest average of Rs 1.1 crore and 614 MLAs from the eastern region the lowest at Rs 8.5 lakh annually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The income analysis released by ADR and national election watch on Monday shows 63 MLAs of Chhattisgarh assembly have the lowest annual average income at Rs 5.4 lakh. On the whole, 711 MLAs from the southern states declared the highest average annual income of Rs 51.99 lakh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Interestingly, the usually close relation between college degrees, particularly at the post graduate level, and higher incomes is missing when it comes to MLAs. The self-declared affidavits of 3,145 of a total 4,086 MLAs show that 33% of MLAs &amp;mdash; who were between Class 5 and Class 12 pass &amp;mdash; had an avergae annual income of Rs 31.03 lakh while 63% &amp;lsquo;graduate and above&amp;rsquo; MLAs earned Rs 20.87 lakh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The average annual income of &amp;lsquo;illiterate&amp;rsquo; MLAs was Rs 9.3 lakh. The report said 941 MLAs did not declare their income and thus were not analysed. &amp;lsquo;Housewife&amp;rsquo; MLAs had the lowest average annual self-income of Rs 3.79 lakh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Asked why less-educated MLAs are earning more than those with college and professional degrees, ADR founder-member Jagdeep Chhokar said higher educational level is not necessarily a guarantor of higher income.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prof Chhokar said many high-income MLAs declared agriculture as their profession. &amp;ldquo;This is largely because agricultural income is tax-free and they don&amp;rsquo;t have to explain where their income has come from,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;em&gt;NEW DELHI: &lt;/em&gt;The average annual income of MLAs in India is Rs 24.59 lakh, with Karnataka&amp;rsquo;s 203 MLAs reporting the highest average of Rs 1.1 crore and 614 MLAs from the eastern region the lowest at Rs 8.5 lakh annually.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The income analysis released by ADR and national election watch on Monday shows 63 MLAs of Chhattisgarh assembly have the lowest annual average income at Rs 5.4 lakh. On the whole, 711 MLAs from the southern states declared the highest average annual income of Rs 51.99 lakh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Interestingly, the usually close relation between college degrees, particularly at the post graduate level, and higher incomes is missing when it comes to MLAs. The self-declared affidavits of 3,145 of a total 4,086 MLAs show that 33% of MLAs &amp;mdash; who were between Class 5 and Class 12 pass &amp;mdash; had an avergae annual income of Rs 31.03 lakh while 63% &amp;lsquo;graduate and above&amp;rsquo; MLAs earned Rs 20.87 lakh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The average annual income of &amp;lsquo;illiterate&amp;rsquo; MLAs was Rs 9.3 lakh. The report said 941 MLAs did not declare their income and thus were not analysed. &amp;lsquo;Housewife&amp;rsquo; MLAs had the lowest average annual self-income of Rs 3.79 lakh.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Asked why less-educated MLAs are earning more than those with college and professional degrees, ADR founder-member Jagdeep Chhokar said higher educational level is not necessarily a guarantor of higher income.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Prof Chhokar said many high-income MLAs declared agriculture as their profession. &amp;ldquo;This is largely because agricultural income is tax-free and they don&amp;rsquo;t have to explain where their income has come from,&amp;rdquo; he said.&lt;br /&gt;

MLAs declare average income of Rs. 24.59 lakh a year -Bharti Jain

-The Times of India NEW DELHI: The average annual income of MLAs in India is Rs 24.59 lakh, with Karnataka’s 203 MLAs reporting the highest average of Rs 1.1 crore and 614 MLAs from the eastern region the lowest at Rs 8.5 lakh annually. The income analysis released by ADR and national election watch on Monday shows 63 MLAs of Chhattisgarh assembly have the lowest annual average income at Rs 5.4 lakh. On the whole, 711 MLAs from the southern states declared the highest average annual income of Rs 51.99 lakh. Interestingly, the usually close relation between college degrees, particularly at the post graduate level, and higher incomes is missing when it comes to MLAs. The self-declared affidavits of 3,145 of a total 4,086 MLAs show that 33% of MLAs — who were between Class 5 and Class 12 pass — had an avergae annual income of Rs 31.03 lakh while 63% ‘graduate and above’ MLAs earned Rs 20.87 lakh. The average annual income of ‘illiterate’ MLAs was Rs 9.3 lakh. The report said 941 MLAs did not declare their income and thus were not analysed. ‘Housewife’ MLAs had the lowest average annual self-income of Rs 3.79 lakh. Asked why less-educated MLAs are earning more than those with college and professional degrees, ADR founder-member Jagdeep Chhokar said higher educational level is not necessarily a guarantor of higher income. Prof Chhokar said many high-income MLAs declared agriculture as their profession. “This is largely because agricultural income is tax-free and they don’t have to explain where their income has come from,” he said.
