I am sure India has improved a lot! But India has lot of other problems,
1. India has a family centric society , where welfare of the family gets priority than the welfare of the nation, which is one of the factor for rampant corruption (IMO).
2. The infrastructure is poor.
3. The divide between rich and poor is high! (income inequality)
4. The Public sector is very slow to respond to the growing needs of infrastructure! They have no clue at all!
5. There is still caste system in rural India, where they don't respect fellow country men as a human being.
6. The politics is only for the rich and heirs of powerful politicians (the parliament is filled with sons and daughters of old politicians read:family business)
I agree with most of your points, but I don't think #1 (family-centric society) is the problem, or even a direct driver of corruption. If you were referring to nepotism, then I think that exists all over the world. An overall corrupt climate just makes it easier to practice nepotism.
I know nothing about India but the "family-centric" stuff is easier to understand as a problem if you phrase it "clannish". And that is actually a huge problem in some areas.
Its a problem because if you don't ask for a bribe, you're selfishly throwing away money you could you use help out your cousin just out of fear of getting punished. And in India you probably do have some cousin who needs the money because their car broke down/their child is getting married/whatever.
