India’s upper-middle and upper classes consume at much higher rates and contribute to emissions at nearly comparable global average rates  https://scroll.in/article/984472/in-india-the-rich-cause-seven-times-more-emissions-than-the-poor .The mean carbon footprint of every Indian was estimated at 0.56 tonne per year – 0.19 tonne per capita among the poor and 1.32 tonne among the rich. To control the climate crisis at the national level, India thus needs to address inequalities, said the study. If economic growth does allow India’s middle classes to move into higher expenditure brackets, India can control the potential explosion in emissions by reworking its policies on food and energy use, it added.
