In nominal terms, India carries the larger government debt โ€” roughly 322.3ร— that of Cambodia, a difference of $3.47 trillion. Note that debt-to-GDP (Cambodia: 29%, India: 82%) is the better measure of sustainability than the raw total.

Analysis

By total government debt, Cambodia ranks 114th-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 India is roughly 3.7× that in Cambodia ($2,415 vs $646 per person).

The debt-to-GDP picture is asymmetric here: India sits at 82% of GDP, well above Cambodia's 29%, 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 $19/sec for Cambodia), adding roughly $620,438,400 to the difference each day.

Scale is part of the story too: India's population (1.44B) is about 86.3× Cambodia's (17M), 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.

Cambodia and India are both grouped under this site's “Asia-Pacific” region, so this is, in effect, an intra-regional comparison as well.
