indian-fakedata: A contextually accurate mock demographic data generator for the Indian market

Original: Stop Generating Nonsense Indian Mock Data. I Built a Better Way!

Short summary

A developer built indian-fakedata, a mock-data library that generates demographically consistent Indian user profiles by respecting correlations between religion, state, language, caste, and other attributes. Standard generators produce impossible combinations (e.g., a Sikh named Mohammed Sharma in Mizoram) because they randomly pick from independent lists. The library outputs rich profiles with Aadhaar, PAN, bank details, personality traits, cultural profiles, and household assets.

  • •Standard mock-data libraries produce demographically impossible Indian profiles by random independent selection
  • •indian-fakedata generates contextually consistent profiles respecting religion-state-language correlations
  • •Output includes 50+ fields: identity docs, bank details, personality, cultural profile, habits, and household assets

Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
