According to the Economic Survey 2025–26, which sector emerged as the largest contributor to India’s Gross Value Added (GVA) in recent years?
Services sector
The Economic Survey 2025–26, tabled by the Ministry of Finance ahead of the Union Budget, reviews the structural composition of India’s economy in terms of Gross Value Added (GVA).
It notes that the services sector — which includes trade, hotels, transport, communication, financial services, real estate, public administration and other services — has emerged as the largest contributor to India’s GVA, accounting for more than half of the total.
Agriculture and allied activities contribute roughly one-sixth, while manufacturing and mining together form the balance industrial share, so none of them is the biggest contributor.
Hence, the services sector is the largest contributor to India’s GVA.
