Measuring gender inequality in land ownership is essential for assessing progress in women’s economic empowerment, tracing the impact of progressive laws on actual practice, and monitoring SDG 5 on gender equality.

To date, no study on India has provided a full range of measures on inter-gender inequality in land ownership or focused on intra-gender variations.
