Despite cultural changes and educational gains, India’s Labor Force Participation rate for women seems to be one of the lowest in the World. Forbes recently stated that India’s GDP will rise between 16% to 60% in 2025 if more women participated in India’s workforce. This would lead to at least an additional $770 billion increase in India’s GDP, which would make the democracy substantially richer.
