Waiting for the day Tamil Nadus (economy 210 billion usd) in 2015 surpasses that of Pakistan ...currently the state is growing almost twice as fast as Pakistan( 285 billion usd in 2015) ..!!
Please can you provide proof that the nominal GSDP of Tamil Nadu is $210bn in 2015, say from a indian government source.
Tamil Nadu has a population of 78m and pakistan has a population of 202m. The closest indian state in population and other areas is UP....why not compare pakistan with UP?
GDP of UP was 150 Billion in 2014-15
Population of 204 Million .
Thats a better comparison.
UP:
Population: 204 million
GDP (2014-15): $150bn
Pakistan:
Population: 201 million
GDP (2014-15): $250bn
So the question arises, why compare pakistan to tamil nadu?

Small correction , it must be 2015-2016 , not 2014 ....well I don't know about exact 2015-2106 figures , they are yet to be released , I was merely quoting some industry journals which quote the figure ...but It is closer to the truth ....TN had a gsdp of 11.3 lakh crore in 2014-2015 , with a net growth of 8.8 last year , so the assumption is that the gross has grown equally or much more ...the quot d figures are , to be exact 13.842 lakh crore in 2015-2016 ..slightly less than 210 billion dollars , but more than 200 billion dollars
Just fyi, Tamil Nadu has a bigger GDP than Uttar Pradesh , I know what you are trying to say , that states with similar population should be compared,but nothing wrong in comparing similar gdps

If you want to compare an indian state to pakistan, then compare like for like. TN is an above average state in india and based in the south. The best comparrison is UP, which has a similar population, I know your trying to show how weak the pakistan economy is by comparing it with above average fast growing region of india.
Why not compare TN to Taiwan, or Singapore or South Korea?
Obviously , I was making a regional comparison , and not to put Pakistan in a bad light
Ok you want comparison , you got comparison ...Tamil Nadu (and A few other states like KA,MH,AP,TG,GJ, etc)is growing at th same rate as the Asian tigers like Taiwan and South Korea grew in their 70s and their 80s
Get back to me when TN has a comparable per capita GDP to either Taiwan or South Korea. Having the fastest GDP growth means very little when your base is so low to begin with.
Lol ..you asked me to make a comparison , and then when I make the comparison you tell me to get back to you at a later Date ....
Not really much of a comparison is it? Taiwan (GDP $530bn and $24,000 per capita), South Korea (GDP $1380bn and $27,400 per capita) to Tamil Nadu (GSDP less then $200bn and per capita $2,900)....
Keep trying.....
Whatever buddy ..i have no problems about indian states being baxkward as conpared to taiwan or south korea ..im happy knowing that several of my country's states are following the Asian tiger model of growth ..we Will keep trying , actually we will keep doing ie growing at near 10 percent per annum until each of our large states achieve gdp levels of Germany or France and we may perhaps even better them .because we have the demographic dividend working on our side ..☺...as for your comment about Uttar Pradesh , The state is yet to even reach its potential as a growth engine ...when it does that,it will be the largest gdp state in India !!!
