A16.8%
B7.9%
C10.56%
D20.0%
Answer & 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%.
