Emotional Intelligence (EI) depends on several factors and one among them is income. Some of the studies found that students with high income possessed high EI. At the same time some other studies reported high EI with low income group. The author carried out a case study with Post Graduate students of Acharya Nagarjuna University(n= 826) to observe the relation between EI and income group. Students are made into three groups based on the income i.e., low, medium and high. Mangal's Emotional inventory scale is utilized for obtaining the data. Income details are also collected from the subjects. Results indicate that the male students with low income have better EI compared to medium and high income. However,3 females with high income show better EI compared to others.
