Measles is a highly contagious but vaccine-preventable disease. Gender differences in measles vaccination outcomes have been widely reported in India. <b>Objective</b>: An overlooked factor is whether female children are less likely to be vaccinated age-appropriately. <b>Methods</b>: In this paper we use data from the nationally representative 2008 District Level Household Survey (DLHS) to analyse if there are any gender differences in the propensity to vaccinate a child for measles, and, among the vaccinated sample, whether there are any gender differences in the probability of age-appropriate measles vaccination. <b>Results</b>: Our analysis confirms that girls have both a significantly lower probability of being vaccinated and of being vaccinated age-appropriately.
