India is in a demographic dividend phase, with half the total population being in the working-age group as of 2011 and will be in this zone for over two decades. This phase is expected to last till 2055. According to Economic Survey 2018-19, India’s Demographic Dividend will peak around 2041, when the share of working-age, i.e. 20-59 years, population is expected to hit 59%. The continuing demographic dividend in India could add about two percentage points per annum to India’s per capita GDP growth over the next two decades.
