The India Discrimination Report 2022 focuses on the differential access to labour market (absorption and wages), factor market (access to credit) and endowment market (access to hospitalisation) for different  socio-religious and gender groups. The analysis attempts to capture the extent of identity-based discrimination explaining the gaps in access to employment and in wages, credit and health facilities in the context of formation of human capital across different castes, tribal and religious identities and gender.
