Maharashtra GDP has been on the rise since 2011. Maharashtra is a state; thus, its GDP is expressed as Gross State Domestic Income (GSDP).
Maharashtra GDP
2020-21: 271,168,512 INR
According to the official data from the Reserve Bank of India, the latest Maharashtra GSDP was in 2020-21. Maharashtra GDP was 271,168,512 INR in the year 2020-21. It was lower by 2,286,641 INR compared to the GSDP of this state in the 2019-20 year. This GDP is computed with the year 2011-12 as the base.
2020 was a challenging year for most economies in the world. With the raging Covid-19 pandemic, most jurisdictions enforced lockdowns to control the spread of the virus. India was no exception, and these lockdowns adversely impacted the economy wherever implemented. In the state of Maharashtra, the lockdowns reduced economic activity. With lower economic activity came less productivity from the state ad hence the dip of GSDP.
2019-20: 273,455,153 INR
The GSDP of Maharashtra was at its most recent high in the 2019-20 year. This was the year the state had a GSDP of 273,455,153 INR, taking 2011-12 as the base year. The GSDP was a 6% (16,665,447 INR) increment from 2018-19 to 2019-20.
Maharashtra reaped big from its agricultural sector in this particular year. This was due to the increased arable land in the last five years preceding 2019, as noted in The Indian Express. Increased land under cultivation meant people harvested more staple and cash crops. These foods were partially contributing to this higher GSDP.
2018-19: 256,789,706 INR
In 2018, Maharashtra saw an increase in GSDP from 2017-18 to the 2018-19 financial year. In 2018-19, the GSDP of this state was 256,789,706 INR. The GSDP was computed as the 2011-12 base year. It was an increase of 21,511,556 INR from the previous year. This was an increment of 9%, a good indicator of healthy economic activity.
