Sources currently disagree by about 1.6% for this indicator and geography. Both figures are shown below rather than one being picked as correct.
1,512–1,536 current US$ two sources differ by 1.6%
Why do these differ, and what each source reported
IMF WEO's NGDPDPC and the World Bank's NY.GDP.PCAP.CD closely track each other for Nepal (verified live: both ~$875.5 for 2015) since both divide the same national-accounts GDP by a similar midyear population base. WEO's coverage runs to 2031 (projections) versus the Bank's actuals-only cutoff, so a gap in later years is a projection/actual mismatch, not a measurement disagreement.

Current (nominal) US$; not adjusted for purchasing power, so cross-country comparisons understate living standards in lower-price economies like Nepal.
