CAG Report Highlights Slower Growth and Declining GDP Share of Delhi in 2024-25
A CAG report tabled in the Delhi Assembly by Chief Minister Rekha Gupta highlights that Delhi's economic growth, with a GSDP of Rs 12.15 lakh crore and 9.17% growth in 2024-25, remains healthy but slower than the national economy. Delhi's contribution to India's GDP declined from 4% in 2015-16 to 3.67% in 2024-25. The report also notes limited capital funding to local bodies, with most grants used for routine expenses rather than infrastructure development.
