Rough estimates on the Indian population, based on past trends, suggests that Indians probably comprised about 3 per cent to 4 per cent of the total population in Myanmar in the mid-1990s. If this trend continued, the total number of Indians in Myanmar by the year 2000 could have been around 2 million." From the chapter 'Myanmar' by Tin Maung Maung Than in Lal (2006) p.175
