Since 2010–11, the Ministry of Education has tried to conduct an annual web-based All India Survey on Higher Education (AISHE) to depict the state of higher education in the nation. Every institution in the nation offering higher education is included in the poll. Information is being gathered on several topics, including teachers, student enrollment, programs, exam results, financing for education, and infrastructure.
The information gathered by AISHE will also be used to calculate indicators of educational development such as Institution Density, Gross Enrollment Ratio, Pupil-Teacher Ratio, Gender Parity Index, and Per Student Expenditure. These are helpful in doing research and formulating wise policy decisions for the advancement of the education sector.
