उत्तर

India’s per capita income is less than Brazil due to massive population.

Explanation:

Per capita income is the average income available per person in the given country. It is equal to the ratio of national income and population. Per capita income = national income/population. As the population grows, per capita income per individual declines. India is the country with the second-largest population. As of 2018, India’s total population was 135.8 crores, comprising 17.74% of the global population. On the other hand, Brazil’s population is 20.93 crores, which is only 2.76% of the global population. This makes the per capita income of India less than that of Brazil, even if India has a higher national income.
