In 2012, which was 12 years ago, the Government declared that India has 2.5 million people belonging to the LGBTQIA+ community. This was based on self-declaration and the actual number is likely to be much higher. Activists say that 125 million people are queer in the country. An arguably popular scale says that almost 10% of any population is queer. By that estimate, the country is home to 144 million queers, at the very least.
