List of Indian states by life expectancy at birth
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
India is composed of 28 states and 8 union territories (including Delhi).[1] The last change in the administrative structure took place in 2019-2020, when the two union territories of Daman and Diu and Dadra and Nagar Haveli were merged into one, called Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu.[2]
Life expectancy in India is below the global average, but is increasing at a rate that exceeds the global average.[3][4]
According to estimation of the United Nations, in 2023 life expectancy in India was 72.00 years (70.52 for male, 73.60 for female).[5] For comparison, life expectancy in the world was 73.17.[5]
Estimation of the World Bank Group for India for 2023 is exactly the same: 72.00 years in total (70.52 for male, 73.60 for female).[6] With average life expectany in the world 73.33 years.[4]

Other estimations
This is a list of Indian states by life expectancy at birth. The figures come from the Human Development Index Report, published in 2011, by United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) India[12] and Sample Registration Survey (SRS) based life table 2010–14.[13][14]
The report provides life expectancy at birth based on mortality rates in years 2002–06, 2010–14, 2019, and 2019-21.
