インド ついに日本を抜いて世界第三位の経済大国に

India displaces Japan to become third-largest world economy in terms of PPP: World Bank

NEW DELHI: India has displaced Japan to become the world's third biggest economy in terms of purchasing power parity (PPP),
according to a World Bank report released on Tuesday.

The 2011 round of the bank's International Comparison Program (ICP) ranked India after the US and China. The last survey in
2005 had placed the country on 10th place.

PPP is used to compare economies and incomes of people by adjusting for differences in prices in different countries to make
a meaningful comparison.
India's share in World GDP in terms of PPP was 6.4% in 2011 compared with China's 14.9% and the US' 17.1%, the latest ICP showed.
The survey covered 199 economies.
"The United States remained the world's largest economy, but it was closely followed by China when measured using PPPs.
India was now the world's third largest economy, movingahead of Japan," the report said.

Despite high inflation in India in recent years, prices in the country are still well below those in advanced economies,
explaining the higher raking for India on the PPP measure. But according to the International Monetary Fund (IMF),
India's economy is 12th largest and only about a third of Japan's in terms of absolute unadjusted dollars.
"The economies with the lowest prices are either in Africa or Asia and the Pacific and include India, which has the
third-largest economy," the report noted.
