Jun 23, 2026
New Delhi [India], June 23: A typical middle-class household in today's India does not feel poor, but it also does not feel secure.

One medical emergency, one job disruption, one market fluctuation can expose how thin the margins really are. India's middle class earns more than previous generations ever did, but it carries its money with caution, hesitation, and fear learned over decades. The problem is not income. It is how money is delayed, avoided, and surrendered to habit.
