According to the data, India ranked 77th in 2020 with a score of 45, while it ranked 82nd this year with a score of 44.
The TRACE Bribery Risk Matrix assesses the likelihood of bribe demands in 194 jurisdictions.
It was first published in 2014 to address a need in the business community for more reliable and nuanced information about the risks of commercial bribery around the world.
The ranking of countries is based on four factors - business interactions with the government, anti-bribery deterrence and enforcement, government and civil service transparency, and capacity for civil society oversight which includes the role of the media.
