Where Madhya Pradesh stands

Each row puts every state and union territory with a figure for the same period on one line, lowest on the left and highest on the right. Madhya Pradesh is the blue dot; India, where the source gives an all-India figure for that period, is the gold tick. Rows read on their own scales: a dot near the right of one row and the left of another says where Madhya Pradesh ranks, not how big the numbers are.

Income and growth

State domestic product is everything produced inside the state in a year. Divided by the people who live there, it is the nearest thing to an average income each state publishes, though it measures production, not what people take home. Every figure here is on MoSPI's 2011-12 base.

In Madhya Pradesh, income per person was ₹1,54,124 in 2024-25, 5th lowest of 32 states and union territories with figures for 2024-25. Madhya Pradesh's estimate for 2025-26, which 15 states and union territories have published so far, is ₹1,69,050. That is about ₹422 a day for each person, before anyone pays for food, rent or school, and before it is split, very unequally, between wages, profits and taxes.

In Madhya Pradesh, the economy's real growth (GSDP at constant prices) was 7.0% in 2024-25, near the middle of the 32 states and union territories with figures for 2024-25 (21st counted from the highest). The all-India figure was 6.5%. Madhya Pradesh's estimate for 2025-26, which 15 states and union territories have published so far, is 8.0%.

In Madhya Pradesh, gross state domestic product (GSDP), the size of the economy was ₹15.02 lakh crore in 2024-25, 10th of the 32 states and union territories with figures for 2024-25, counted from the highest. Madhya Pradesh's estimate for 2025-26, which 15 states and union territories have published so far, is ₹16.70 lakh crore.

Prices

Retail inflation on the 2024 base of the Consumer Price Index, which began in January 2026: how much more the same basket of goods and services cost than a year earlier. Each state has its own basket, so a state's index and the all-India index weigh items differently.

In Madhya Pradesh, retail inflation (prices against a year earlier) was 5.5% in August 2026, 5th highest of 36 states and union territories with figures for August 2026. The all-India figure was 4.8%. Something that cost ₹100 a year earlier cost about ₹106 in August 2026, on the average shopping basket of Madhya Pradesh.

In Madhya Pradesh, inflation in food and drink was 5.3% in August 2026, near the middle of the 36 states and union territories with figures for August 2026 (16th counted from the highest). The all-India figure was 5.7%.

Education

Schools from UDISE+, the Ministry of Education's census of every school, as MoSPI serves it (2018-19 to 2024-25); college enrolment from the All India Survey on Higher Education (2021-22). A gross enrolment ratio counts every enrolled student, of any age, against the population of the official age group, so it can pass 100.

In Madhya Pradesh, the gross enrolment ratio in higher education (18 to 23 year olds) was 28.9% in 2021-22, near the middle of the 36 states and union territories with figures for 2021-22 (18th counted from the highest). The all-India figure was 28.4%.

Climate

Temperature and rain over the whole state, from ERA5, a reconstruction of past weather that the World Bank's Climate Change Knowledge Portal averages over each state's area. Each year is set against the state's own average for 1951 to 1980.

In Madhya Pradesh, the average air temperature over the year was 25.1°C in 2025, near the middle of the 33 states and union territories with figures for 2025 (18th counted from the highest). Its average over 1951 to 1980 was 25.1°C.

In Madhya Pradesh, the rain over the year was 1,463 mm in 2025, near the middle of the 33 states and union territories with figures for 2025 (20th counted from the highest). Its average over 1951 to 1980 was 1,149 mm.

In Madhya Pradesh, the change in days of 35°C or more by 2040 to 2059 against 1995 to 2014, on a middle emissions path (SSP2-4.5, median of the models) was +15 days in 2040-2059, near the middle of the 33 states and union territories with figures for 2040-2059 (16th counted from the highest).

State finances

The state government's own accounts, from the RBI's Handbook, set against the state's GSDP as the states guide computes it, with what it pays to borrow and how often it ran short of cash with the RBI, from the RBI's weekly and monthly tables. Actual accounts run two years behind; budget and revised estimates are left out.

In Madhya Pradesh, outstanding liabilities at the end of March, as a share of GSDP was 29.9% in 2022-23, near the middle of the 31 states and union territories with figures for 2022-23 (20th counted from the highest).

In Madhya Pradesh, the gross fiscal deficit, as a share of the state's GSDP was 3.4% in 2022-23, near the middle of the 31 states and union territories with figures for 2022-23 (14th counted from the highest).

In Madhya Pradesh, interest payments as a share of revenue spending was 9.7% in 2022-23, near the middle of the 31 states and union territories with figures for 2022-23 (17th counted from the highest). The all-India figure was 12.3%.

How to read this profile

Every number on this page is copied from an official table, or worked out from one in a way the page names (a share, a growth rate, an average). Nothing is estimated or filled in. Where a source has no figure for Madhya Pradesh, the page says so.

States report at different lags. MoSPI's newest year of state accounts comes from a few states first, so each figure is ranked at its comparison period, the latest that at least three in four units have published, and the newer estimate is given beside it. A rank counts only the units with a figure for that period, and says how many.

Figures from different sources are different rulers. The 2012 and 2024 bases of the Consumer Price Index, the two designs of the labour force survey, and the rounds of the family health survey are never joined into one series. Boundaries change too: Andhra Pradesh and Telangana split in June 2014; Jammu and Kashmir became two union territories in October 2019; Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu merged in January 2020. A figure for a unit before its change appears only under that unit's own name.

How to misread a state profile

  • 1

    "Income per person is what a typical person earns."

    It is what is produced in the state, divided by everyone who lives there. Profits of companies based elsewhere count where the plant stands; money sent home by people working in other states counts where they work. Spending per person, from the household survey, is closer to how a household lives.

  • 2

    "It ranks 10th, so it is in the middle."

    Check out of how many. Some tables cover 36 units, some 19. A rank says nothing about the distance to the next state; the row in the first chart shows it.

  • 3

    "This figure is from this year."

    Each figure carries its own period, printed beside it. A family health survey figure, a college enrolment ratio and a state's accounts each come from a different year, and the newest of them can be years apart. Two figures side by side may not describe the same year.

  • 4

    "A low credit-deposit ratio means banks are not lending."

    Loans are counted where they are sanctioned. A company with plants in one state may borrow in Mumbai; a farmer's crop loan stays local. A low ratio says that much of the money saved in the state is lent elsewhere.

  • 5

    "The state's weather station says otherwise."

    The climate figures are averages over the whole area of the state, from a reconstruction of past weather, not readings at one station. A city can be warmer or wetter than its state's average.
