About SRS
The Sample Registration System (SRS) provides
reliable annual estimates of Infant mortality rate,
birth rate, death rate and other fertility &
mortality indicators at the national and sub-
national levels. It is a large-scale demographic
survey conducted every year by Office of the
Registrar General, India in all States/Union
Territories.
Abstract
This Bulletin presents the estimates of Birth Rate,
Death Rate, Natural Growth Rate and Infant
Mortality Rate (IMR) for the year 2019 for India
and its States/Union Territories. The ‘Bigger
States/Union Territories’ in this Bulletin are those
having population more than 10 million as per
Census 2011.
In 2019, the birth rate for the country has declined
to 19.7 from 20.0 in the year 2018, whereas the
death rate has declined to 6.0 in the year 2019
from 6.2 in the year 2018. The Infant Mortality
Rate has decreased to 30 in the year 2019 from 32
in the year 2018.

Birth Rate is a crude measure of fertility of a population and is a crucial
determinant of population growth. It gives the number of live births per
thousand population in a given region and year.

Infant Mortality Rate

The Infant Mortality Rate (IMR), which is widely accepted as a crude
indicator of the overall health scenario of a country or a region, is defined
as the infant deaths (less than one year) per thousand live births in a given
time period and for a given region. In 2019, the
maximum IMR
The present level of IMR (30 infant deaths per thousand live births, for the has been
year 2019) is about one-fourth as compared to 1971 (129 infant deaths per reported for
thousand live births). In the last ten years, IMR has witnessed a decline of
about 34% in both rural and urban areas. The Figure-4 given below indicates
