India’s Economic Growth Data for Q2 2022-23
- GDP and GVA are the two main indicators of a country’s economic performance.
- GDP measures the monetary measure of all final goods and services produced in a country.
- Four key engines of GDP growth include private consumption, government consumption, investments, and net effect of exports and imports.
- GDP calculation: GDP = private consumption + gross investment + government investment + government spending + (exports-imports).
- GVA calculates the same national income from the supply side by adding up all value added across different sectors.
- GDP and GVA are related by the equation: GDP = (GVA) + (Taxes earned by the government) — (Subsidies provided by the government).
