About This Dataset
The early 2000s show volatility with negative or marginal growth in several districts, but strong double-digit expansion followed after 2003–04. Industrial and service-driven districts consistently outperform agriculture-dominated ones, reflecting structural transformation in the state economy.
Data Quality
The dataset is structured with district names as column headers and yearly economic values as numeric entries. Most values appear consistent and formatted for quantitative analysis. Some cells may contain missing values where district GDP figures were unavailable or administrative changes affected reporting.
Use Cases
Regional economic analysis, district-level GDP comparison, economic development planning, academic research on regional disparities, policy evaluation for state economic growth, and forecasting regional economic performance.
Limitations
The dataset does not include sector-wise GDP contributions, population-adjusted metrics such as GDP per capita, or inflation-adjusted values. Additional documentation may be required to understand the precise methodology used to estimate district GDP.
Methodology
The data was likely compiled using district domestic product estimation methods applied by state statistical agencies. Economic output values are aggregated across industries using administrative records, production statistics, and economic accounting frameworks used in regional economic measurement.
