Answer & Solution
Correct answer: D. Secondary sector
1. The GSDP section gives sectoral shares for 2018-19 at current prices.
2. The shares were primary 19.1%, secondary 45.3% and tertiary 35.6%.
3. The secondary sector, at 45.3%, had the largest share.
4. The tertiary (services) sector at 35.6% is smaller, so it is ruled out.
5. Therefore the secondary sector had the largest share at 45.3%.
