Morgan Stanley forecasts India will achieve third-largest global economy status by 2028. The nation's economic output will expand to $10.6 trillion by 2035, representing more than double current levels. Five major states will reach nearly $1 trillion each in economic value between 2030 and 2035. Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, Uttar Pradesh and Karnataka will rank among the world's top 20 economies. These regional powerhouses will contribute significantly to India's projected leadership of one-fifth of global growth during the next decade.
State governments demonstrate varying performance levels with Maharashtra, Gujarat and Telangana leading current rankings. Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh show marked improvement over recent years. Regional authorities compete for investment through policy creation and business environment improvements. Their independent political cycles and production factor control directly influence national economic outcomes. Competitive federalism between states will determine India's potential as a global manufacturing center and stock market performance sustainability.
Central government infrastructure spending doubled from 1.6 percent to 3.2 percent of GDP between 2015 and 2025.
