SSC CHSL - 6 Aug 2021 - Shift 2 • General Awareness • Q45

What was India's per capita net national income (estimated) during 2019-20?

Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: C

Explanation

The correct answer is option 3 i.e. Rs. 1,35,050.

Rs. 1,35,050, which was India's estimated per capita net national income (NNI) during 2019-20, as per the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI).

Other options:

  • Rs. 1,15,050: Too low, as India's per capita NNI had already crossed Rs. 1,30,000 by 2019-20.

  • Rs. 1,55,050: Overestimates the actual figure, which was lower due to slower economic growth.

  • Rs. 1,85,050: Far higher than the official estimate, likely confusing nominal GDP with NNI.

Per capita NNI reflects average income after accounting for depreciation and taxes, making Rs. 1,35,050 the accurate choice.
