The per capita income of India has grown 209 per cent from Rs 17,736 to Rs 54,835 during the years 2001 to 2011.


Naturally, this average for the country does not extend evenly across states. Take a look at the map, above, to see where Indian states stand in relation to each other.


While some states like Sikkim, Kerala and Uttarakhand have shown excellent growth in per capita incomes, others like Jharkhand, Manipur and Punjab are lagging behind.

dear prasad,

this map means nothing to me.

suppose, the base for one state was 1 rupee and the income went to 5 rupees, the increase is 500 percent.

.. and another, from 50 rupees to 100 rupees, the increase is 50 rupees but the percentage increase is only 100 %.

reminds me of a guy, who did not know how to swim and crossed the river when told the average depth was 3 feet except he was 5 feet tall, and half the river was 4 feet and the other half 8 feet right in the middle. dont have to tell you the result

Revised data for the past years differ from the tables below. Due to the slide in INR/USD exchange rates from 2011-2013, GDSP has grown in local currency terms but often roughly flat in USD terms. INR rates have varied over the years; as of Jan 1, 2014 it has temporarily stabilized at roughly 62 Indian rupees per USD.List of Indian states by GDP - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
