India's economy runs on 3 engines
1) Agriculture: 46.1% of jobs → just 17.7% of GVA
2) Industry: 24% of jobs → 27.6% of GVA
3) Services: 30% of jobs → 54.5% of GVA

Nearly half of India works in agriculture - yet services generate over half the economic value. That productivity gap is driving India's growth story.

₹12 LPA salary. 30% savings.
Almost 98 years for a 2 BHK in Mumbai.

Homeownership in India isn’t just getting expensive- it’s getting out of reach.
From 12.4 years in Jaipur to 97.8 years in Mumbai, the affordability gap is nearly 8×.

The real estate dream is getting longer.
But can our incomes keep up?

"Do you go to school?"

She nodded with a shy smile.
Before she could answer, another child softly said, "She goes sometimes. Other days, she stays home."

A simple reminder: the first answer isn't always the full story.
Good field research is about more than asking questions- it's about building trust, observing carefully, and listening beyond words.

Sometimes, the truth begins after the question.

Crude oil fell. Fuel prices didn't.

From 2015 to 2025:
Petrol: ₹66.41 → ₹94.77/L
Diesel: ₹46.15 → ₹87.67/L

The question isn't just what changed- it's who bears the cost.

36% of Claude's usage is coding. Not chatting.

That's the global picture. But languages, devices, and jobs look very different on the ground in Bharat.

Data tells us what changed. Fieldwork tells us why.
