We examine the relationship between women's age at marriage and their labour market outcomes using nationally representative household data from India. Employing an instrumental variable‐based empirical strategy, we find that a delay in women's age at marriage has no significant causal effect on their labour market outcomes. This is despite marriage delay being associated with higher education, lower fertility and (possibly) higher dowry for Indian women. We argue that this might be because older brides, as compared with younger brides, face more backlash from their partners.

This paper examines how heat stress influences gendered time allocation across diverse activity domains in a developing country context. We match high-resolution climate data (ERA5 global reanalysis dataset) with large-scale, high-frequency individual-level panel data from the Consumer Pyramids Household Survey (2019–2024). We find that extreme heat sharply reduces time spent in paid work, learning, and social–community participation, with larger declines for men in paid work and learning and for women in social activities.
