In nominal terms, India carries the larger government debt โ€” roughly 869.9ร— that of Guyana, a difference of $3.48 trillion. Note that debt-to-GDP (Guyana: 23%, India: 82%) is the better measure of sustainability than the raw total.

Analysis

By total government debt, Guyana ranks 133rd-largest and India ranks 8th-largest among the 137 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 national debt in Guyana is roughly 2.1× that in India ($5,063 vs $2,415 per person).

The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: India sits at 82% of GDP, well above Guyana's 23%, meaning India 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 ($7K/sec vs $0/sec for Guyana), adding roughly $622,080,000 to the difference each day.

Scale is part of the story too: India's population (1.44B) is about 1824.1× Guyana's (1M), 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.
