The graph below shows population figures
The line graph illustrates the population trends of India and China from the year 2000, with projections until 2050. The figures are measured in billions.
Overall, while China’s population was larger than India’s in 2000, India’s population is expected to surpass China’s by around 2030. By 2050, India’s population is predicted to continue increasing, whereas China’s is set to decline.
In 2000, China had a population of approximately 1.25 billion, compared to India’s 1 billion. Over the next 30 years, both countries experienced population growth, with India growing at a faster rate. By 2030, India’s population is projected to reach 1.45 billion, overtaking China, which is expected to plateau at the same figure.
After 2030, India’s population is forecast to continue rising steadily, reaching nearly 1.6 billion by 2050. In contrast, China’s population is predicted to decline after peaking in 2030, falling to around 1.4 billion by the end of the period.
