There are more than a billion people in India with diverse religious beliefs, and understanding the changes in the religious composition over time can be insightful from a cultural, social, and political standpoint. Using the census data on religion from 2001 to 2011 to describe the changes in religious composition across 640 districts in India, we find that the share of the population of a religious group appears to depend on the differences in growth rates across religions (and not on the absolute growth rates of any given religion) and the baseline share of religion in the previous period. Similar growth rates across religions will still generate different compositions in the districts, underscoring the importance of understanding religious composition in contextual terms.
