Pillar: Economic Participation
South Delhi places 6,092.2 apprentices per lakh youth, better than the typical district. The Apprenticeship Placement Cell is the administrative engine behind that number, matching trainees to employers.
80% of registered enterprises are in services while 20% are in manufacturing. Only 18% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 85% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 4% of ITI trainers are certified.
In South Delhi, which ranks 3 of 11 in Delhi for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 64.4 out of 100. It trails the national picture on ITI seats per lakh youth at 361.3. On informal workers with any social-security cover at 0%, it sits close to the national mark.
