It is determined using the Gross National Income (GNI) per capita, mean years of education, predicted years of education, and life expectancy at birth.

India was placed 131st out of 189 nations and territories in the 2020 report.
The decrease in life expectancy was the cause of the country’s performance falling short of its prior level.
