Official data on economic activity per capita reveals that Telangana has emerged as a strong performer across multiple economic sectors when compared to other Indian states. The figures, measured in USD, showcase the state’s diverse economic base and its competitive positioning in key industries.
The state’s services sector stands out prominently with a per-capita economic activity of $3,078, placing it among the top-performing states in this category. This sector has been a major driver of Telangana’s economic growth, reflecting the state’s strength in information technology, business services, and related industries.
In the trade and repair segment, Telangana records $929 per capita, marking the highest figure in this category among all listed states. Additionally, the state leads in real estate, dwellings, and professional services with a per-capita figure of $1,088, again ranking as the top state in this combined category.
The agriculture and allied sectors contribute $648 per capita to the state’s economy, a figure that positions Telangana above the median among Indian states. The industry sector records $857 per capita, with manufacturing specifically accounting for $386 of this total.
Other significant sectors include construction at $258 per capita, tourism at $232, financial services at $225, and mining and utilities at $213. These figures collectively demonstrate the state’s diversified economic structure across primary, secondary, and tertiary sectors.
The data is calculated using the latest per-capita Net State Domestic Product (NSDP) in US dollars, multiplied by the corresponding Gross State Value Added (GSVA) activity share. Officials note this serves as a proxy measure because NSDP figures are net while the shares used are gross.
For the tourism sector, the figures are approximate, applying the 2015-16 Tourism Satellite Account (TSA) tourism share to the latest per-capita NSDP data. The methodology employs a color-scheme by column for data visualization purposes in the original presentation.
