About This Dataset
Growth rates show strong double-digit increases across most districts, with notable surges in 2004–05 and steady acceleration till 2006–07. Overall, Kerala demonstrates rapid and broad-based economic expansion, though inter-district disparities persist.
Data Quality
The dataset is structurally clean with consistent numeric formatting across district GDP columns. No missing or null values are present. Column naming is consistent and values appear standardized in the same unit (Rs. Crore).
Use Cases
Regional economic analysis, district-level economic comparisons, development planning, academic research on regional growth, economic policy evaluation, and visualization of district economic performance trends.
Limitations
The dataset only includes GDP at current prices and does not provide constant price adjustments or inflation corrections. Growth rate columns are not explicitly included in the dataset despite being referenced in the dataset title. Additional socioeconomic indicators are also absent.
Methodology
The values were likely compiled from regional economic accounting estimates where state GDP is disaggregated into district-level estimates using sectoral production data, administrative records, and statistical modeling by state economic and statistical departments.
