Analysis

By total government debt, Bahrain ranks 65th and India 8th among the 135 sovereigns tracked on this site.

On a per-citizen basis the picture can look different from the nominal totals: a resident's notional share of the government debt in Bahrain is roughly 19.9× that in India ($45,325 vs $2,274 per person).

The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: Bahrain sits at 144% of GDP, well above India's 84%, meaning Bahrain owes far more relative to the size of its own economy — even where the nominal, dollar-for-dollar comparison above suggests otherwise.

The gap between them is widening: India's debt is growing faster in dollar terms ($3K/sec vs $136/sec for Bahrain), adding roughly $205,804,800 to the difference each day.

Scale is part of the story too: India's population (1.48B) is about 903.2× Bahrain's (2M), which is part of why the nominal and per-capita comparisons above can point in different directions — a government's debt load scales loosely with the size of both its economy and its population, not either alone.
