Abstract
Trends in emigration from India are reviewed with a focus on estimates of the numbers involved migrant characteristics and the economic impact of this migration. The author estimates that as of 1981 between 5 million and 5.5 million persons born in India were living outside India; 85 percent of these migrants were living in developing countries. The concentration of the migration of highly skilled workers to developed countries is noted. Consideration is given to remittances from abroad and their effect on the Indian economy.
