India's fertility rate falls below replacement rate
Orissa POST
|June 11, 2025
According to a United Nations study, India's population at present stands at 1.46 billion
According to a new UN demographic report, India’s total fertility rate has fallen below the re-
placement rate. UNFPA's 2025 State of World Population (SOWP) Report, The Real Fertility Crisis, calls for a shift from panic over falling fertility to addressing unmet reproductive goals.
Millions of people are not able to realise their real fertility goals, it asserts. The report also reveals key shifts in population composition, fertility, and life expectancy, signalling a major demographic transition.
The report found that India’s total fertility rate has declined to 1.9 births per woman, falling below the replacement level of 2.1.
