Can you please provide genuine information on India's current population and average age and how many are employed and unemployed? How many are entrepreneurs and how many people have salaries?

I don’t have the proper census report on all topics; but here are some data that i have for study!
Population is increasing at 1.2% annually and it’s more than our country can handle!
Of the 1.21-billion people in the country, the worker population ratio is 39 percent at the national level, with 40 percent in rural areas and 36 percent in urban areas.
Around 51% of Indian workers are self-employed, mostly in rural areas, while 33.5% of them are casual labour (33.5%) and only 15.6% have salaried employment.
As per socio-economic study conducted by the National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) of the ministry of statistics and programme implementation from July 2011 to June 2012, Anant said salaried employees or workers with regular wages were nearly six times more in urban areas (41.4 percent) than 7.3 percent in rural areas, showing the wide disparity in the employment comfort level of the workforce across the country.
Of the total (472.9 million) employed in 2011-12, 234.6 million were men and 101.8 million women in rural areas and 109.2 million men and 27.3 million women in urban areas.
In contrast, of the total 459 million in 2009-10, 231.9 million men and 104.5 million women were in rural areas and 99.8 million men and 22.8 million women were in urban areas
However, Of the 76 lakh individual assessees who declared income of above Rs 5 lakh, 56 lakh are in the salaried class
Avg age at present is great because we are the most young people in the world
