This paper does the study of HDI, GDI and indicators of HDI across all the states and UTs of India. Decomposition of HDI by its indicators shows that Education accounts for the largest contribution in improving HDI ranking along with income and health. The HDI of India has increased from 0.491 to 0.642. Similarly, GDI also faced improvement in these years as it increased from 0.757 to 0.845. We observed a positive relationship between HDI and GDI.
