In India, the poverty line is determined based on the average monthly consumption expenditure required to meet basic needs such as food, clothing, and shelter. The Planning Commission, along with the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation, conducts periodic assessments, using criteria such as calorie intake and household consumption patterns. The most recent estimates are based on the recommendations of the Tendulkar Committee and the Rangarajan Committee, which consider both rural and urban areas. Adjustments are also made for inflation and regional variations in cost of living.
