পূৰ্বতে ভাৰতবৰ্ষত আয়োজন কৰা ঢেঁকীয়াপতীয়া বাঘৰ গণনা (census) প্ৰত্যেক বাঘৰ ভৰিৰ খোজৰ ওপৰত নিৰ্ভৰ কৰি কৰা হৈছিল৷ কিন্তু শেহতীয়াকৈ এই পদ্ধতিত থকা নানা আসোঁৱাহ সমূহৰ সমালোচনা হোৱাত বৰ্তমান নতুনকৈ কেমেৰা ট্ৰেপিং পদ্ধতি অৱলম্বন কৰা হৈছে৷

ভাৰতবৰ্ষত থকা ঢেঁকীয়াপতীয়া বাঘ উত্তম পৰ্য্যায়ৰ বাসস্থানসমূহ হৈছে-মানাহ-নামদফা, হাজাৰিবাগ ৰাষ্ট্ৰীয় উদ্যান( Hazaribagh National Park), নাৰ্গাজুন সাগৰ-শ্ৰীসাইলাম ব্যাঘ্ৰ প্ৰকল্প (Nagarjunsagar-Srisailam Tiger Reserve),কানহা-ইন্দ্ৰাৱতী কৰিড'ৰ ( Kanha-Indravati corridor), উৰিষ্যাৰ শুকান বনাঞ্চল , পান্না ৰাষ্ট্ৰীয় উদ্যান (Panna National Park), মেলঘাট ব্যাঘ্ৰ প্ৰকল্প (Melghat Tiger Reserve) ইত্যাদি৷ The TCUs in tropical moist deciduous forest are probably some of the most productive habitats for tigers and their prey, and include Kaziranga-Meghalaya, Kanha-Pench, Simlipal and Indravati Tiger Reserves. The TCUs in tropical moist evergreen forests represent the less common tiger habitats, being largely limited to the upland areas and wetter parts of the Western Ghats, and include the Tiger Reserves of Periyar, Kalakad-Mundathurai, Bandipur and Parambikulam Wildlife Sanctuary.

The methodology used during the tiger census of 2008 extrapolates site-specific densities of tigers, their co-predators and prey derived from camera trap and sign surveys using GIS. Based on the result of these surveys, the total tiger population has been estimated at 1,411 individuals ranging from 1,165 to 1,657 adult and sub-adult tigers of more than 1.5 years of age. The following six landscape complexes comprising several ecological landscapes were surveyed across India based on current tiger occupancy and potential for connectivity:

In May 2008, forest officials spotted 14 tiger cubs in Rajasthan's Ranthambore National Park. In June 2008, a tiger from Ranthambore was relocated to Sariska Tiger Reserve, where all tigers had fallen victim to poachers and human encroachments since 2005.
