      GRWI 2023: India's position in the Global Remote Work Index (GRWI) has fallen significantly, landing at 64th out of 108 countries. This marks a notable 15-place decline from the previous year, raising questions about the nation's preparedness for remote work.

      In contrast, the top 10 countries leading the GRWI are Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Sweden, Portugal, Estonia, Lithuania, Ireland, and Slovakia.

      GRWI 2023: India's position

      India has dropped to the 64th position in the Global Remote Work Index, which evaluates countries on cyber safety, economic safety, digital and physical infrastructure, and social safety. India's decline can be attributed to underperformance in digital infrastructure (77) and social safety (74). The report highlights India's digital infrastructure as one of the least developed globally, ranking 95th, and notes expensive and low-quality internet connections (78th and 70th, respectively).

      In social safety, India is perceived as one of the most isolated countries with a low personal rights index (88) and limited inclusiveness (65). In terms of cyber and economic safety, India's performance is average, with rankings of 56 and 55, respectively.

      Although India is cost-effective with a low cost of living, its healthcare system is rated poorly (93). On the positive side, the country has a reasonably robust cyber infrastructure (13) and a decent response capacity (19).
