Ageing, a universal phenomenon, is a normal outcome of the human life cycle. Currently, India‟s national population for ageing adults is 8% translating into roughly 93 million people. By 2050, this aging population is projected to climb to 20%, or approximately 323 million people. Religion can fulfil some important psychological needs and help them, face life ahead. The present study aims to understand the religious attitude in relation to socio-economic status and gender; and the relationship between religious attitude and quality of life among rural population. A group of 300 aging adults in the age range of 65 to 75 years were selected using purposive sampling technique.150 subjects belonged to high Ses and 150 belonged to low Ses. Further the sample was divided as 75 males and 75 females. It was observed that subjects of low socio-economic group had significantly high religious beliefs, as compared to the high Ses cohort. Women were found to be high on religious belief as compared to the ageing men irrespective of Ses. Relationship between Ses, gender and religious attitude was also found in the study. Highly significant negative correlation between religious attitude and psychological well-being among the groups could also be appreciated.
