Life table is a statistical tool that summarizes the mortality experience of a population and yields information about longevity and life expectation. The present study aims to calculate the components of life table for the state of Assam which is located in the north-eastern part of India. The result indicates that the life expectancy at birth in Assam has been 63.5 and 66.2 years for males and females respectively. The life expectancy of female is higher than their male counterpart in all the age groups. The finding also reveals that the life expectancy for urban areas is higher than that of rural areas. The study may have some policy implication that would help the planners and policy makers of the government to take necessary steps in achieving life expectancy as high as possible.
