While China saw a massive increase in its wealth, a quick maturity of its economy and a huge improvement in quality of life for all Chinese, India will take many more decades.<\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"landscape qtext_image zoomable_in zoomable_in_feed lazy_loaded lazy_loading\" src=\"https:\/\/qph.ec.quoracdn.net\/main-qimg-3c37cab46fbe5a0dba40bc1262a53138-c?convert_to_webp=true\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">So one could read or feel from the current situation that China is and always will be the next big thing. However, China is now at the point where its growing, but not growing as fast as it used to. That is normal, and a sign of a maturing economy.<\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">So India has a lot more room to grow and will most likely start to pick up pace. However, if we are looking at the long term, its extremely likely that India will not only at one point overtake China\u2019s economy, it may end up being much larger.<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"landscape qtext_image zoomable_in zoomable_in_feed lazy_loaded lazy_loading\" src=\"https:\/\/qph.ec.quoracdn.net\/main-qimg-d4167f1209a3b0ae86cc84a23d075a00?convert_to_webp=true\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">So in 2100, India is likely to be ~1.5 Billion people and China ~ 1 Billion. If India can reach similar levels of industrialization, education, wealth that China has by 2100, then its economy will be 50% larger than China\u2019s.<\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">But for a large number of reasons India is not developing as fast as China did. China was blink and you would miss it. India is slower than watching grass grow.<\/p>\n<div class=\"qtext_image_wrapper\"><canvas class=\"qtext_image_placeholder portrait qtext_image zoomable_in_feed\" width=\"365\" height=\"500\" data-src=\"data:image\/JPEG;base64,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\"><\/canvas><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"portrait qtext_image zoomable_in_feed lazy_loaded lazy_loading\" src=\"https:\/\/qph.ec.quoracdn.net\/main-qimg-d12bb279e5e4f4ea2a8a8d7d10556434-c?convert_to_webp=true\" alt=\"\" \/><\/div>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">India saw very massive jumps in the early 80\u2019s, but since then its been a bit disappointing how slow its development is. While China tried to do it as quickly as possible, with very explicit government control and planning , India is a much more laissez-faire. Its not clear if India could adopt some (or any) aspects like the Chinese planned development, where there was a real effort to facilitate speed and the trajectory of the rise.<\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">Peoples expectations are created by the examples around them. China is the example of a developing nation becoming a global power economically, culturally, politically, military, etc. India is not China. They are two very different cultures. I think India will reach a simular level of development eventually, but it may take ~80 years to equal out.<\/p>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">At which point India will be the most populous nation on earth, with possibly by far the largest economy.<\/p>\n<div id=\"djHiAu\">\n<div id=\"__w2_qiNyCWu_content_footer\" class=\"ContentFooter AnswerFooter\"><span id=\"YyIOvv\"><span id=\"__w2_v4vgRLK_link\" class=\"photo_tooltip\"><span id=\"SCzOCr\">\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"KsmoaI\" class=\"pagedlist_item\">\n<div id=\"__w2_zH2j7FH_actionable\" class=\"actionable\">\n<div id=\"kXFndZ\">\n<div id=\"Oohtnk\">\n<div id=\"__w2_D5q49bi_answer\" class=\"Answer AnswerBase\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"AnswerHeader ContentHeader\">\n<div class=\"photo_text_layout size_small\">\n<div class=\"_layout_text_wrapper\">\n<div class=\"_layout_text\">\n<div id=\"__w2_WVr5GCW_menu\" class=\"hover_menu hidden white_bg show_nub\"><\/div>\n<p><span class=\"feed_item_answer_user\"><span id=\"lwerVt\"><span id=\"vRGnET\"><span id=\"ZSFeVy\"><span id=\"__w2_WVr5GCW_link\"><a id=\"__w2_WVr5GCW_name_link\" class=\"user\" href=\"https:\/\/www.quora.com\/profile\/Syed-Fawad-Hussain-1\" target=\"_blank\">Syed Fawad Hussain<\/a><\/span><\/span><span id=\"__w2_r0ePi3K_bio\" class=\"IdentitySig ActorNameSig IdentityNameSig\">, <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"__w2_D5q49bi_answer_content\">\n<div id=\"nyVVHU\">\n<div id=\"__w2_T2tUZOp_content\" class=\"inline_editor_content\">\n<div id=\"MyzcII\"><\/div>\n<p class=\"qtext_para\">Remember one thing, if India becomes able to sort out following issues properly, no doubt in long run of four decades\u2014she would be super-power.
