Bangladesh's per capita GDP forecast to overtake India's
Original: Bangladesh per capita GDP forecast to outstrip India’s: What does it mean?
Forecasts indicate Bangladesh's per capita GDP is set to surpass India's, a milestone analysts say reflects years of faster growth driven by garment exports, remittances and gains in living standards. Commentators are debating what the shift means for comparisons between the two South Asian neighbours and for India's own economic trajectory.
Why now: The prospect of a poorer neighbour overtaking India on a headline economic measure is striking and prompts debate about India's growth record.
