According to Business Standard's Datanomics report, just nine out of 584 districts across India showed unemployment rates of 10 percent or higher in 2025.
The Datanomics analysis by Business Standard revealed that in 2025, only nine districts out of the total 584 recorded unemployment rates in the double‑digit range.
This means that in those nine districts, the proportion of people without work was 10 percent or more of the labour force.
The remaining 575 districts reported unemployment rates below the 10 percent threshold, indicating comparatively lower joblessness.
The findings are based on the latest district‑level employment data compiled for the year 2025.
