India 2026
هند
India enters 2027 with a population of 1,463.9 million, a power fleet that is now more than half non-fossil by capacity, and a water and food system that rests on one seasonal rainfall regime. The population figure is for 2025.

01 · Readings
India in six readings.
Six readings that frame the India baseline, and the eight questions this edition answers, each with its status and source.
02 · Sectors
Six sectors, one hexagon.
Water first, then Energy, Infrastructure, Food, Health and Biodiversity. Each count is the findings of this edition in that sector: coverage of the evidence, never a score. Infrastructure is not assessed: the edition holds no Infrastructure finding and its coupling matrix does not assess it.
- WATآب2 findings
60.6% Groundwater extraction as a share of the extractable resource, 2025. □گزارش‌شده
Extraction at 60.63% of the extractable groundwater; over-exploited units concentrated in the north-west, west and south.

03 · Hazard exposure
The hazards this edition reads.
The edition’s own risk objects, in its order, each read across driver, exposure, vulnerability, capacity, cascade and horizon. The hexagon marks the sectors the cascade reaches; the domain beside each is an editorial reading of its hazard words.

Scenario · SCN-IND-MON-01
A second deficient monsoon across groundwater, kharif output, power demand and food budgets
Under this scenario, results describe a conditional season under stated assumptions. It is not a forecast, and no intervention described here has been carried out.
2 of 12 findings name a hazard in their text. Show them
- 1CLI → WATrecharge falls and pumping rises in units already over-exploited
- 2WAT → FOOirrigation draws on falling groundwater; rain-fed output is exposed; no figure bound
- 3FOO → FINfood prices pass into household budgets; no figure bound
- 4ENE → WATpumping and cooling demand add load to the power system
- 5CLI → HLTheat and water stress raise health and care demand
- 6WAT → BIOdrier soils and forests raise fire and stress on wetlands
04 · Couplings
How the sectors carry risk into each other.
The India matrix types the twenty couplings between the five core سامانه‌ها. Strengths are Nexus estimates from the cited evidence and analogue events; they set the starting graph that the Q1 2027 Foundry cut will test.
| از | WAT | ENE | FOO | HLT | BIO |

| ENE | متوسط | · | Strong | Strong | متوسط |
| FOO | متوسط | Weak | · | Strong | Strong |
| HLT | Weak | Weak | متوسط | · | Weak |

Water: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Energy: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Food: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Health: 4 couplings out, 4 in; Biodiversity: 4 couplings out, 4 in. Infrastructure is not in the coupling matrix: none of the edition matrices types it, so it carries no value.

| WAT-004 | هند | WAT آب | □ گزارش‌شده | Groundwater extraction was 247.22 billion cubic metres in 2025, 60.63% of the 407.75 billion extractable; 730 of 6,762 assessment units (10.8%) were over-exploited, with stage of extraction at 156.36% in Punjab, 147.11% in Rajasthan and 136.75% in Haryana. |
| WAT-005 | هند | WAT آب | □ گزارش‌شده | Renewable internal freshwater was about 1,014 m³ per person in 2022, and peer-reviewed satellite and modelling studies find falling groundwater storage in northern India, with pumping as a major driver. |
| ENE-006 | هند | ENE انرژی | □ گزارش‌شده | On 31 July 2026 non-fossil sources provided 300.50 GW of about 552 GW installed capacity, over 54%: solar 164.59 GW, wind 58.14 GW, hydro 57.24 GW, bio-power 11.75 GW and nuclear 8.78 GW; 55.29 GW was added in 2025–26. |
| ENE-007 | هند | ENE انرژی | □ گزارش‌شده | Fossil generation fell 3.3% in 2025 as renewables grew by a record 98 TWh; solar reached 196 TWh, 9.4% of demand, and fossil fuels still supplied about 73% of generation. Net energy imports were 36.0% of energy use in 2024. |
| CLI-008 | هند | CLI Climate forcing | □ گزارش‌شده | The latest official inventory gives 2,959 Mt CO₂e for 2020 excluding land use, with energy 2,238 Mt; the 2035 contribution targets a 47% cut in emissions intensity of GDP from 2005 and net zero by 2070. |
| FOO-009 | هند | FOO غذا | □ گزارش‌شده | The third advance estimate for 2025–26 puts foodgrain at a record 376.563 Mt, up 5.3% on 2024–25, with rice at 154.024 Mt and wheat at 120.657 Mt; the wheat export ban of May 2022 continues. |
| HLT-010 | هند | HLT سلامت | □ گزارش‌شده | Life expectancy was 72.2 years in 2024 and 7.4% of people were aged 65 or over in 2025; no consistent national heat-death series exists, since the national disease-control centre confirmed 14 deaths between March and June 2025 while a media review found at least 84 between February and July. |
| BIO-011 | هند | BIO تنوع زیستی | □ گزارش‌شده | Forest covered 24.4% of land in 2024 and 7.7% of land was under terrestrial protection; condition outside protected areas is not bound in this edition. |
| SYS-012 | هند | SYS Systemic | ◎ Expert input | The leading compound pathway for 2027 testing is a second deficient monsoon that cuts groundwater recharge, kharif output and household food budgets together. |
