Analysis

By total government debt, India ranks 8th and Ivory Coast 72nd 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 India is roughly 1.2× that in Ivory Coast ($2,275 vs $1,850 per person).

The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: India sits at 84% of GDP, well above Ivory Coast's 57%, 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 ($3K/sec vs $213/sec for Ivory Coast), adding roughly $199,152,000 to the difference each day.

Scale is part of the story too: India's population (1.48B) is about 43.6× Ivory Coast's (34M), 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.
