4th Largest Economy in the world and look at us.

5 states. 48% of India's GDP.. The rest of the country (25 other states) shares the other 52%. The top 5 (FY25 GDP share): Maharashtra ₹45.3L cr (13.3% of national GDP) Tamil Nadu ₹31.2L cr (9.2%) Uttar Pradesh ₹29.8L cr (8.7%) Karnataka ₹28.8L cr (8.5%) Gujarat ₹27.9L cr (8.2%) FDI tells the same story. Maharashtra, Karnataka, Gujarat, Delhi and Tamil Nadu captured 83.3% of all foreign investment inflows. The states moving fastest: Assam: 17.3% 5-year CAGR (highest in country) UP: 15.3% CAGR (structural, not cyclical driven by infrastructure, land digitisation, logistics corridors) Bihar: 13.1% growth but from a devastatingly low base India's growth story is real. But it is geographically concentrated in a handful of coastal and semi-urban states. Without deliberately spreading out industrial decentralisation by pushing manufacturing corridors, data infrastructure and FDI into the bottom tier, India risks building a $5 trillion economy that works brilliantly for 5 states and delivers subsistence for the rest. via @businessline

Mark my words, Dholera will be such an important city no one would have even imagined.



Today’s Cabinet decision on the Ahmedabad (Sarkhej) - Dholera Semi High-Speed Double Line project is a landmark in India’s rail modernisation journey. Built with indigenously developed technology, this first-of-its-kind project will boost connectivity, reduce travel time and support growth in Gujarat. It will also strengthen Dholera’s rise as a major centre of opportunity, enterprise and future-ready infrastructure. pib.gov.in/PressReleasePa…

Sridhar Vembu: India's brain drain isn't a statistic. It's an existential economic crisis. India's brain power runs Silicon Valley and we buy their services back at a huge mark-up. Brain drain isn't NRI pride content. It's weakening the rupee, blowing the forex deficit & killing our tech future.
