Year, Region, Gender, Age Group and State wise Labour Force Participation Rates according to usual status
This dataset provides the Labour Force Participation Rate (LFPR) in percentage according to usual status (ps+ss) for each State and Union Territory in India, segmented by age groups: 15-29 years, 15-59 years, 15 years and above, and all ages. Sourced from the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS) conducted by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, it captures labor force engagement across various demographic age ranges.
Note:
1. For 2023-24, Chandigarh's entire area has been considered urban for this survey, and this year includes only the age groups 15-59 years, 15 years and above, and all ages. Before 2019-20, Ladakh was part of Jammu and Kashmir, and since 2020-21, Daman and Diu has been merged with Dadra and Nagar Haveli to form the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu.
2. Survey years previously followed a July–June cycle (e.g., 2023–24 refers to July 2023–June 2024). From 2025 onward, data is reported on a calendar-year basis (January–December)
