Tamil Nadu has achieved a significant economic milestone, becoming the second Indian state after Maharashtra to cross $400 billion in Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP). This feat highlights India’s expanding economic momentum and the strength of its regional economies.
With a GSDP of ₹31.55 lakh crore, Tamil Nadu’s focus on industrialisation, innovation, and infrastructure has made it a vital driver of India’s economic success. The state has developed into a manufacturing and automotive powerhouse, attracting both domestic and international investment. Its diverse economy, proactive governance, and trained workforce have all contributed to steady growth.
Maharashtra continues to dominate with a GSDP of ₹42.67 lakh crore, indicating its solid financial and industrial roots. Both states demonstrate how regional development can support national growth by providing examples for economic planning and industry diversity.
India’s total GDP has reached $4 trillion, with a forecast real GDP growth rate of 6.4% in 2025, making it one of the fastest-growing global economies. The ‘Make in India’ effort, combined with better infrastructure and business-friendly laws, has greatly improved the country’s state-specific performance.
