About This Dataset
Real GDP growth varied across agriculture, industry, and services, with services showing strong resilience. Trade deficits widened alongside rising imports, while foreign exchange reserves and external debt increased steadily. Fiscal deficits, consumption, and capital formation reveal shifts in domestic savings, investment, and government spending patterns.
Data Quality
The dataset appears mostly complete with consistent numeric formatting across the yearly columns. A small number of missing values exist in earlier fiscal year columns, but overall the dataset maintains consistent structure and labeling
Use Cases
Economic trend analysis, macroeconomic forecasting models, policy research, economic education datasets, and financial analytics.
Limitations
The dataset contains aggregated macroeconomic indicators without methodological notes, unit clarification for every indicator, or detailed sector breakdowns. Some values are projections or revised estimates rather than final figures.
Methodology
The dataset appears to be compiled from national economic statistics reporting, likely derived from official macroeconomic publications summarizing GDP growth and related economic indicators across fiscal years
