The G20 remains one of the world’s key international platforms for global economic cooperation and governance. It brings together 19 countries Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, India, Indonesia, Italy, Japan, Mexico, Russia, Saudi Arabia, South Africa, South Korea, Türkiye, the United Kingdom and the United States along with the European Union.
A comparison of per-capita income highlights a significant economic gap among G20 members. According to the figures cited, the United States has the highest per-capita income at more than $94,000, while India stands at around $2,813.
The difference becomes particularly striking when average monthly salaries are compared with petrol purchasing power. Based on the cited figures, an average monthly salary in the United States can buy around 5,610 litres of petrol, while an average salary in India can buy approximately 420 litres.
Australia also ranks high on this measure, with an average monthly salary equivalent to around 3,314 litres of petrol. In Saudi Arabia, the figure is approximately 3,060 litres.
The comparison illustrates not only the differences in income levels across major economies but also how purchasing power and local fuel prices can affect the real value of salaries.
