Abstract

The report examines India’s digital divide and its relationship with wider socio-economic inequality. It analyses disparities in access to and use of the internet, digital devices and technological skills, showing how unequal digitalisation can exclude disadvantaged populations. The report particularly highlights the consequences for education, healthcare and financial services, arguing that digital transformation without equitable access can deepen existing inequalities rather than resolve them.
