Now let's compare the GDP of our states with that of well known countries.

Tamil Nadu | 4 | ₹13.39 lakh crore | $210 billion | 2016–17 est.[7] | |

Bihar | 12 | ₹6.32 lakh crore | $97 billion | 2017–18 est.[15] | |
Delhi | 13 | ₹6.22 lakh crore | $96 billion | 2016–17 est.[16] | |

Punjab | 15 | ₹4.65 lakh crore | $72 billion | 2017–18 est.[18][19] |
I was expecting Karnataka to be higher than 5th position. But, it's growing at a very fast rate relative to other states. The growth rate of Karnataka's GPD in 2016-2017 was an astounding 17%. Which is much higher than the growth rates of Maharashtra and Gujrat which are 11.8% and 13.3% respectively for the same financial year. At this growth rate, Karnataka would catch on and surpass these states in just a matter of few years.
