NABARD All India Rural Financial Inclusion Survey (NAFIS)

The NABARD All India Rural Financial Inclusion Survey (NAFIS) provides data on the financial inclusion status of rural households in India. The data was collected in 2016-17 and includes information on bank account ownership, credit access, insurance coverage, financial literacy and household economic status. The NAFIS is a valuable resource for researchers, policy makers, and journalists who are interested in the financial inclusion status of rural households in India. The dataset can be used to track the progress of financial inclusion in rural India, to identify the challenges to financial inclusion, and to develop policies and programs to promote financial inclusion. This subset of the NAFIS dataset provides information on households in different states, including average monthly consumption expenditure, households reporting savings, average savings for saver households, incidence of indebtedness among households, households associated with microfinance institutions, average landholding size, average monthly household income, and average monthly agricultural household income.
