India will collect caste data in its 2027 digital census, with final questions confirmed by Feb 4, 2026.
The Indian government confirmed on February 4, 2026, that caste-related questions for the 2027 Census will be finalized and officially notified before the second phase, Population Enumeration, begins.
This phase, set for February 2027, will collect demographic, socio-economic, and cultural data, including caste information, following the first phase—House Listing Operation—which ran from April to September 2026.
The census, delayed from 2021, will be fully digital, using mobile devices and self-enumeration via apps and online portals, with paper backups only in rare cases.
Data security and inclusive field collection are prioritized, with a budget of Rs 11,718 crore.
The reference date is March 1, 2027, for most regions, with snow-bound areas using October 1, 2026.
