The criterion used by UNDP for measuring development is different from the one used by the World Bank in the sense that it uses a combination of factors such as health,education and income as an indicators of development. It does not rely solely on Per Capita Income as it is the case with the World Bank

World bank only uses per capita income for measuring development while UNDP uses many other factors like infant mortality, healthcare facility education level which help in improving the quality of life and helps in making the citizens more productive. As per HDI- 2014, India's rank is 135. On the other hand, the World Bank uses per capita income as the only criterion for measuring development and classifying the countries as rich and poor. Per capita income is useful for comparison, it does not tell us how income is distributed.
