If you are  asking about the implications, then here goes

Having 2.4% of the geographical area of the world makes India the seventh largest country in the world. But India's population has far exceeded the population density per unit area of the top six largest countries, except that of China which is three times the area of India. India ranks second in terms of population just behind China.
There will be serious implications for India, if it does not manages its population such as 
- food scarcity - not able to grow enough crop for everyone
- lack of place to live - will lead to cutting of forests, which is not good for the   
                         environment
-increase in poverty due to unemployment as so many people but less jobs

These are some of the major implications that India would have to face in terms of limited land with an constantly increasing population.
