Every row is indexed to the last count complete before the first day in office ("from" marks a start that had to move because that count had no data, or because the period cut it); India is measured over the same months. Levels are per cent changes, rates are differences in %; "per year" compounds levels and divides rates. Tenures with under 12 months, or under three observations, are left out. ₹ lakh crore, 2011-12 prices · MoSPI, state-wise National Accounts, gross state domestic product at constant 2011-12 prices, financial years April to March · state or territory data · as of Sep 2026.
