Answer:

British Indians or Indian Britons are citizens of the United Kingdom (UK) whose ancestral roots lie in India. This includes people born in the UK who are of Indian origin as well as Indians who have migrated to the UK. Today, Indians comprise about 1.4 million people in the UK (not including those of mixed Indian and other ancestry), making them the single largest visible ethnic minority population in the country. They make up the largest subgroup of British Asians and are one of the largest Indian communities in the Indian diaspora, mainly due to the Indian–British relations (including historical links such as India having been part of the British Empire and still being part of the Commonwealth of Nations). The British Indian community is the sixth largest in the Indian diaspora, behind the Indian communities in the United States, Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Malaysia and Nepal. The largest group of British Indians are those of Punjabi origin, accounting for an estimated 45 percent of the British Indian population (based on data for England and Wales), followed by other communities including Gujarati, Bengali, Malayali, Haryanvi, Konkani, and Marathi communities.

Official figures demonstrate that Indian employees have the highest average hourly pay rate among all ethnic groups in Britain. A study in 2011 found British Indians have among the lowest poverty rates among ethnic groups in Britain. Studies and official figure have shown that Indians are more likely to be employed in professional and managerial occupations, than all other ethnic groups, including White British people.
