Using the India Human Development Survey, which includes variables related to formal and informal social capital, income inequality is seen to adversely impact the formation of formal social capital while significantly contributing to the development of informal social capital in India. Further, evidence of a lower level of social capital among low-income individuals is observed. There is substantial inequality in income distribution that amplifies social capital inequality. Traditional income redistributive policies may prove ineffective when inequality becomes deeply ingrained in society.  aECO  aSocial Capital   aIncome Inequality   aIndia Human Development Survey   aInformal social capital   uhttps://www.epw.in/journal/special-articles/social-capital-and-income-inequality.html  cARTICLE  2ddcn0  c87006d87006  00102ddc40708ECOaSTCPLbSTCPLcBVSd2025-08-04l0r2025-08-04 10:27:24w2025-08-04yARTICLE
