Regarding the average IQ of indians being 81 or something similar: I think the "reader" is taking the widely discredited work by Richard Lynn(IQ and the Wealth of Nations) too seriously. And even if we assume that the small sample taken by this study somehow represented the indian average, the phenomenal rise in average IQ in western countries over the last centuries shows that its rise mirrors the rise of middle class. It is said that the long-term rises in intelligence that occurred in Western populations during the twentieth century are largely attributable to improvements in nutrition and I guess the same will apply to India

India consists of the following disparate and genetically separate populations

Brahmins , 5%, 125 IQ
Other Upper Castes, 15%, 110 IQ
Other Backward Castes, 40%, 95 IQ
Muslims, 15%, 85 IQ
SC/ST, 25%, 80 IQ

Averaging this will give a composite IQ of 93

The above is for the section of population that is well fed
and well schooled

In India, Malnutrition is 55% as against 10% in china
and Womens illiteracy is 50% as against 10% in china

and this would drop IQ about 10 points from what it will eventually be

In addition, the chinese IQ tests were done in Beijing and Shanghai
The Indian IQ tests were done not in Delhi and Bangalore, but in
Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and Orissa, which are the poorest,
most illiterate and malnourished and backward places
The caste composition of the Indian testees is not known
For example Orissa consists of 50% SC/ST

I shall test my hypothesis

Indians in Fiji were recruited as contract laborers and the british wanted a docile and illiterate
population that could be exploited
The Indians in Fiji are 50% Backward Caste , 95 IQ and 50% SC/ST with 80 iQ
An average gives an Average Fiji Indian IQ of 87, The test scores is 84 IQ
If this group had a western society they would score 87
In Fiji, the native Fijians have 84 IQ
95% of Fiji professionals are Indians , I would expect that these are
from the backward castes, 95 IQ
