What is the approximate size of Odisha’s Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP)?

₹2 trillion
₹4 trillion
₹6 trillion
₹8 trillion

The correct answer is: c) ₹6 trillion.

Odisha’s Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) is the total value of all goods and services produced in the state in a given year. It is a measure of the state’s economic output and is used to track its economic growth.

In 2020-21, Odisha’s GSDP was ₹6.02 trillion, which was a growth of 10.1% from the previous year. The state’s economy is primarily driven by the mining and manufacturing sectors, which account for a significant share of its GSDP.

The other options are incorrect because they are either too low or too high. Option a) ₹2 trillion is too low because Odisha’s GSDP has been growing at a rate of around 10% per year in recent years. Option b) ₹4 trillion is too high because Odisha’s GSDP is still a relatively small economy. Option d) ₹8 trillion is too high because Odisha’s GSDP is not yet as large as the GSDP of some of the larger states in India, such as Maharashtra and Gujarat.
