# Indian States GDP numbers

I wanted to find out how Indian states were faring since independence and if government policies and regimes have made any difference. Since I could not find any aggregate data I wanted to use a list of government documents and compile it myself by state.

For the first dataset I will complile only the southern and richer northern states for comparison:
- Andhra Pradesh
- Telangana
- Karnataka
- Kerala
- Maharashtra
- Tamil Nadu
- Gujrat
- Punjab
- West Bengal

## Columns in the dataset
- state: State codes
- start_year: Start of the assessment year
- end_year: End of the assessment year
- value: Value in INR Lacs - 1 Lac is 100000 INR

## Notes
- Sometimes when there are overlapping timelines like the second source and third source have overlap from 1999-00 to 05-06 - they often have different numbers. In such a case I have considered the calculation done at a later stage considering that is has been updated recently.
