India is in the third stage of demographic transition. The objective of this study is to understand the patterns of fertility in India. For this data have been taken from various sources like Census of India, 2011, National Family Health Survey–4, 2015–16, and Sample Registration System Report, 2017. The relevant data related to fertility have been extracted from these sources and presented in tabular and graphical form.
