## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATISTICS AND PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION (SHRI D. V. SADANANDA GOWDA)

- (a) State  level  estimates  of  Gross  Domestic  Product  and  Per  Capita Income  (measured  as  Per  Capita  Net  State  Domestic  Product)  are compiled by concerned State Governments. The estimates for the last three years are given at Annexure I.
- (b) Yes, Madam. The details of States for which per capita income is lower than  the  national  average  as  per  the  latest  available  estimates  are given  at  Annexure  II.  This  is  due  to  resource  endowments,  historical background of development, availability of socio-economic and physical infrastructure, demographic features and other State specific factors.
- (c) The  Government  has  placed  systematic  focus  on  economic  growth and macroeconomic stability and has taken several measures in this regard  that  include  efforts  to  encourage  domestic  investment  and enterprise. The complementarities built around the flagship Make-inIndia programme, including measures for improving the ease of doing business, Skill India and Digital India initiatives; and, encouragement to budding entrepreneurial talent under the Start-up India and Standup India Initiatives are expected to encourage domestic enterprise. The Government's focus on infrastructure including rural infrastructure;  the  launch  of  innovative  financial  vehicles  such  as Infrastructure Debt Funds, Real Estate Investment Trusts/ Infrastructure Investment Trust and National Infrastructure Investment  Fund;  creation  of  a  framework  for  municipal  bonds  and issuance  of  Tax  Free  Bonds;  etc.,  are  expected  to  help  bridge  the infrastructure deficit and help in giving boost to private investment. Other  growth  promoting  measures  include  passing  of  Goods  and Service Tax (GST) Bill, introduction of slew of labour-friendly measures that would promote employment generation, economies of scale and boost exports in Textile and Apparel sector.
