&lt;em&gt;India&amp;rsquo;s richest districts are situated along the western coastline while the poorest are clustered in the easternmost parts of the country, shows analysis&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mumbai:&lt;/em&gt; Where do the affluent in India live?&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That&amp;rsquo;s the million dollar question consumer goods firms, marketers, and analysts often struggle to answer because of patchy and unreliable data. For the first time in India, an official data source provides detailed data on household assets and consumer durables that allows us to see how wealth is spread across the country&amp;rsquo;s districts.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
That data source is the National Family Health Survey (NFHS) which surveyed more than 600,000 households in 2015-16. Although the database is used primarily to assess health outcomes, it is in fact a rich source of data on household ownership of assets.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A Mint analysis of the NFHS unit-level data released earlier this year shows that India&amp;rsquo;s top six urban regions&amp;mdash;Delhi NCR, Mumbai-Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Bengaluru&amp;mdash;account for 25% of India&amp;rsquo;s affluent class. The six urban agglomerations together account for a little less than a sixth of the country&amp;rsquo;s population. Delhi NCR leads the race, accounting for more than 11% of affluent individuals in the country, followed by Mumbai-Pune, which accounts for 5% of affluent individuals in the country. Mumbai-suburban, Thane, and Raigad districts have been considered part of the Mumbai-Pune urban agglomeration.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The analysis of household affluence and poverty is based on a threefold classification. Households having at least six of the following eight assets or amenities&amp;mdash;pucca house, electricity connection, phone (landline/mobile), television, AC/cooler, refrigerator, washing machine, and motorized vehicle (car/motorcycle/tractor/truck)&amp;mdash;have been classified as affluent. Households having at most one of these assets have been classified as poor. The rest have been classified as middle-income households.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
All estimates have been weighted by the number of individuals in households to account for the differences in household sizes across income classes. Nationally, a little over a quarter of India&amp;rsquo;s population are affluent based on the criteria described above, a little over a 10th are poor, and the rest fall in the middle-income category.&lt;br /&gt;

For the first time in India, an official data source provides detailed data on household assets and consumer durables that allows us to see how wealth is spread across the country&amp;rsquo;s districts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That data source is the National Family Health Survey (NFHS) which surveyed more than 600,000 households in 2015-16. Although the database is used primarily to assess health outcomes, it is in fact a rich source of data on household ownership of assets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Mint analysis of the NFHS unit-level data released earlier this year shows that India&amp;rsquo;s top six urban regions&amp;mdash;Delhi NCR, Mumbai-Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Bengaluru&amp;mdash;account for 25% of India&amp;rsquo;s affluent class. The six urban agglomerations together account for a little less than a sixth of the country&amp;rsquo;s population. Delhi NCR leads the race, accounting for more than 11% of affluent individuals in the country, followed by Mumbai-Pune, which accounts for 5% of affluent individuals in the country. Mumbai-suburban, Thane, and Raigad districts have been considered part of the Mumbai-Pune urban agglomeration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The analysis of household affluence and poverty is based on a threefold classification. Households having at least six of the following eight assets or amenities&amp;mdash;pucca house, electricity connection, phone (landline/mobile), television, AC/cooler, refrigerator, washing machine, and motorized vehicle (car/motorcycle/tractor/truck)&amp;mdash;have been classified as affluent. Households having at most one of these assets have been classified as poor. The rest have been classified as middle-income households.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All estimates have been weighted by the number of individuals in households to account for the differences in household sizes across income classes. Nationally, a little over a quarter of India&amp;rsquo;s population are affluent based on the criteria described above, a little over a 10th are poor, and the rest fall in the middle-income category.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/Politics/DymS22taK4EyAbSYRx0rSO/Where-Indias-affluent-classes-live.html&quot; title=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/Politics/DymS22taK4EyAbSYRx0rSO/Where-Indias-affluent-classes-live.html&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

For the first time in India, an official data source provides detailed data on household assets and consumer durables that allows us to see how wealth is spread across the country&amp;rsquo;s districts.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That data source is the National Family Health Survey (NFHS) which surveyed more than 600,000 households in 2015-16. Although the database is used primarily to assess health outcomes, it is in fact a rich source of data on household ownership of assets.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A Mint analysis of the NFHS unit-level data released earlier this year shows that India&amp;rsquo;s top six urban regions&amp;mdash;Delhi NCR, Mumbai-Pune, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kolkata, and Bengaluru&amp;mdash;account for 25% of India&amp;rsquo;s affluent class. The six urban agglomerations together account for a little less than a sixth of the country&amp;rsquo;s population. Delhi NCR leads the race, accounting for more than 11% of affluent individuals in the country, followed by Mumbai-Pune, which accounts for 5% of affluent individuals in the country. Mumbai-suburban, Thane, and Raigad districts have been considered part of the Mumbai-Pune urban agglomeration.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The analysis of household affluence and poverty is based on a threefold classification. Households having at least six of the following eight assets or amenities&amp;mdash;pucca house, electricity connection, phone (landline/mobile), television, AC/cooler, refrigerator, washing machine, and motorized vehicle (car/motorcycle/tractor/truck)&amp;mdash;have been classified as affluent. Households having at most one of these assets have been classified as poor. The rest have been classified as middle-income households.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;All estimates have been weighted by the number of individuals in households to account for the differences in household sizes across income classes. Nationally, a little over a quarter of India&amp;rsquo;s population are affluent based on the criteria described above, a little over a 10th are poor, and the rest fall in the middle-income category.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/Politics/DymS22taK4EyAbSYRx0rSO/Where-Indias-affluent-classes-live.html&quot; title=&quot;https://www.livemint.com/Politics/DymS22taK4EyAbSYRx0rSO/Where-Indias-affluent-classes-live.html&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;,

Where India's affluent classes live -Tadit Kundu and Pramit Bhattacharya

For the first time in India, an official data source provides detailed data on household assets and consumer durables that allows us to see how wealth is spread across the country’s districts. That data source is the National Family Health Survey (NFHS) which surveyed more than 600,000 households in 2015-16.
