On the other hand, the sex ratio of the elderly population in India stood at 1,033 women for every one thousand men, indicating an increase from the previous year. The sex ratio for both population types was forecasted to increase by 2031. After 2011, the sex ratio for the elderly population was estimated to be over one thousand, which indicates a higher number of elderly women than men.
