What share of India's national GDP does Gujarat contribute, as stated in the 2019-20 review?

  1. 4.99%
  2. 16.8%
  3. 20.0%
  4. 7.9%
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. 7.9%

1. The review highlights Gujarat as a growth engine of India. 2. With only a 4.99% population share, Gujarat contributes about 7.9% to the national GDP. 3. The 4.99% figure is the population share, not the GDP share, so it is a trap. 4. The 16.8% figure is Gujarat's share of industrial output, a different metric. 5. Therefore Gujarat contributes about 7.9% to national GDP. _Source: Socio-Economic Review 2019-20, Gujarat State (Directorate of Economics & Statistics), p.20_

What was Gujarat's share in India's total industrial output, making it the largest among states?

  1. 16.8%
  2. 7.9%
  3. 10.56%
  4. 20.0%
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: A. 16.8%

1. The review describes Gujarat as an industrially developed state. 2. It holds a 16.8% share in the country's industrial output, the largest among states. 3. The 7.9% figure is the GDP share, not industrial output, so it is ruled out. 4. The 10.56% figure is the renewable power capacity share, a different metric. 5. Hence Gujarat's industrial output share is 16.8%. _Source: Socio-Economic Review 2019-20, Gujarat State (Directorate of Economics & Statistics), p.20_

  1. Less than 5 percent
  2. More than 20 percent
  3. Around 35 percent
  4. About 45 percent
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. More than 20 percent

1. Gujarat is described as a leader in exports and a global gateway. 2. It contributes more than 20 percent share to India's aggregate exports. 3. The 45 percent figure refers to Gujarat's share in national plastic exports only, not total exports. 4. So Gujarat's share of India's aggregate exports is more than 20 percent. _Source: Socio-Economic Review 2019-20, Gujarat State (Directorate of Economics & Statistics), p.20_
