According to GDP statistics from 2021, China’s most productive provinces and cities are listed below. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, China’s GDP in 2021 was RMB 114.4 trillion (US$17.7 trillion), up around RMB 13 trillion (US$3 trillion) from 2020, or 8.1 percent year-on-year growth (NBS).
Is China’s economy expected to increase in 2021?

In 2021, what would India’s GDP be?
In its second advance estimates of national accounts released on Monday, the National Statistical Office (NSO) forecasted the country’s growth for 2021-22 at 8.9%, slightly lower than the 9.2% estimated in its first advance estimates released in January.
Furthermore, the National Statistics Office (NSO) reduced its estimates of GDP contraction for the coronavirus pandemic-affected last fiscal year (2020-21) to 6.6 percent. The previous projection was for a 7.3% decrease.
In April-June 2020, the Indian economy contracted 23.8 percent, and in July-September 2020, it contracted 6.6 percent.
“While an adverse base was expected to flatten growth in Q3 FY2022, the NSO’s initial estimates are far below our expectations (6.2 percent for GDP), with a marginal increase in manufacturing and a contraction in construction that is surprising given the heavy rains in the southern states,” said Aditi Nayar, Chief Economist at ICRA.
“GDP at constant (2011-12) prices is estimated at Rs 38.22 trillion in Q3 of 2021-22, up from Rs 36.26 trillion in Q3 of 2020-21, indicating an increase of 5.4 percent,” according to an official release.
According to the announcement, real GDP (GDP) or Gross Domestic Product (GDP) at constant (2011-12) prices is expected to reach Rs 147.72 trillion in 2021-22, up from Rs 135.58 trillion in the first updated estimate announced on January 31, 2022.
GDP growth is expected to be 8.9% in 2021-22, compared to a decline of 6.6 percent in 2020-21.
In terms of value, GDP in October-December 2021-22 was Rs 38,22,159 crore, up from Rs 36,22,220 crore in the same period of 2020-21.
According to NSO data, the manufacturing sector’s Gross Value Added (GVA) growth remained nearly steady at 0.2 percent in the third quarter of 2021-22, compared to 8.4 percent a year ago.
GVA growth in the farm sector was weak in the third quarter, at 2.6 percent, compared to 4.1 percent a year before.
GVA in the construction sector decreased by 2.8%, compared to 6.6% rise a year ago.
The electricity, gas, water supply, and other utility services segment grew by 3.7 percent in the third quarter of current fiscal year, compared to 1.5 percent growth the previous year.
Similarly, trade, hotel, transportation, communication, and broadcasting services expanded by 6.1 percent, compared to a decline of 10.1 percent a year ago.
In Q3 FY22, financial, real estate, and professional services growth was 4.6 percent, compared to 10.3 percent in Q3 FY21.
During the quarter under examination, public administration, defense, and other services expanded by 16.8%, compared to a decrease of 2.9 percent a year earlier.
Meanwhile, China’s economy grew by 4% between October and December of 2021.
“India’s GDP growth for Q3FY22 was a touch lower than our forecast of 5.7 percent, as the manufacturing sector grew slowly and the construction industry experienced unanticipated de-growth.” We have, however, decisively emerged from the pandemic recession, with all sectors of the economy showing signs of recovery.
“Going ahead, unlock trade will help growth in Q4FY22, as most governments have eliminated pandemic-related limitations, but weak rural demand and geopolitical shock from the Russia-Ukraine conflict may impair global growth and supply chains.” The impending pass-through of higher oil and gas costs could affect domestic demand mood, according to Elara Capital economist Garima Kapoor.
“Strong growth in the services sector and a pick-up in private final consumption expenditure drove India’s real GDP growth to 5.4 percent in Q3.” While agriculture’s growth slowed in Q3, the construction sector’s growth became negative.
“On the plus side, actual expenditure levels in both the private and public sectors are greater than they were before the pandemic.
“Given the encouraging trends in government revenues and spending until January 2022, as well as the upward revision in the nominal GDP growth rate for FY22, the fiscal deficit to GDP ratio for FY22 may come out better than what the (federal) budget projected,” said Rupa Rege Nitsure, group chief economist, L&T Financial Holdings.
“The growth number is pretty disappointing,” Sujan Hajra, chief economist of Mumbai-based Anand Rathi Securities, said, citing weaker rural consumer demand and investments as reasons.
After crude prices soared beyond $100 a barrel, India, which imports virtually all of its oil, might face a wider trade imbalance, a weaker rupee, and greater inflation, with a knock to GDP considered as the main concern.
“We believe the fiscal and monetary policy accommodation will remain, given the geopolitical volatility and crude oil prices,” Hajra added.
According to Nomura, a 10% increase in oil prices would shave 0.2 percentage points off India’s GDP growth while adding 0.3 to 0.4 percentage points to retail inflation.
Widening sanctions against Russia are likely to have a ripple impact on India, according to Sakshi Gupta, senior economist at HDFC Bank.
“We see a 20-30 basis point downside risk to our base predictions,” she said. For the time being, HDFC expects the GDP to rise 8.2% in the coming fiscal year.
What is China’s GDP forecast for 2022?
The Wall Street bank cut its GDP growth prediction for 2022 to 5.1 percent, down from 5.3 percent previously and below the Chinese leadership’s aim of around 5.5 percent. GDP increased by 0.6 percent in the third quarter compared to the previous three months.
In 2021, which country will have the greatest GDP?
What are the world’s largest economies? According to the International Monetary Fund, the following countries have the greatest nominal GDP in the world:
Is China, in 2021, a developed country?
GDP growth has averaged about 10% per year since 1978, when China began to open up and reform its economy, and more than 800 million people have been pulled out of poverty. Over the same time span, there have been tremendous gains in access to health, education, and other services.
China has risen to the status of an upper-middle-income country.
Going forward, it will be critical that poverty alleviation initiatives progressively focus on the vulnerabilities faced by the significant number of individuals still considered poor by middle-income country criteria, including those residing in cities.
China’s rapid growth, which has been fueled by resource-intensive manufacturing, exports, and low-wage labor, has mostly reached its limitations, resulting in economic, social, and environmental imbalances. To address these inequities, the economy’s structure must transition from low-end manufacturing to higher-end manufacturing and services, as well as from investment to consumption.
In the face of structural restrictions such as decreased labor force growth, reduced returns on investment, and slowing productivity, growth has slowed in recent years. The task now is to discover new growth drivers while also dealing with the social and environmental consequences of China’s prior development path.
China’s rapid economic expansion has outpaced institutional development, and there are significant institutional and reform gaps that must be addressed in order for China to maintain a high-quality and long-term growth path. To further support the market system, the state’s role must evolve and focus on delivering stable market expectations and a clear and fair business climate, as well as strengthening the regulatory system and the rule of law.
Because of its size, China is at the center of major regional and global development challenges. China is the world’s greatest emitter of greenhouse gases, with per capita emissions currently surpassing those of the European Union, although being slightly lower than the OECD average and far lower than the United States, and its air and water pollution has an impact on neighboring countries. Without China’s participation, global environmental issues will remain unsolvable. Furthermore, maintaining adequate economic growth has substantial spillover effects on the rest of the international economy.
Many of China’s difficult development challenges, such as transitioning to a new growth model, increasing aging, developing a cost-effective health system, and promoting a lower-carbon energy route, are applicable to other countries. Through trade, investment, and ideas, China is exerting a rising effect on other developing countries.
Following 2.3 percent real GDP growth in 2020, China’s economy is expected to increase by 8.5 percent in 2021, mainly to base effects. The pace of growth is decreasing, owing to the lingering effects of policy and macroprudential tightening, as well as floods and the latest Delta epidemic. Although lingering stricter restrictions and cautious sentiment as a result of the recent Delta outbreaks would weigh on consumption recovery, their impact is projected to be mainly compensated in the second half of the year by robust foreign demand and moderate policy support. The near-term risks have shifted to the downside, with the main concern being recurrent outbreaks caused by more transmissible COVID-19 mutations, which might cause major economic upheaval. Given unfavourable demographics, sluggish productivity growth, and the legacies of excessive borrowing and pollution, China’s economy faces structural challenges in the medium term. Short-term macroeconomic policies and structural reforms aiming at reinvigorating the shift to more balanced, high-quality growth are needed to address these difficulties.
The administration recently emphasized promoting common prosperity as a fundamental economic goal, indicating a likely shift in policy objectives toward addressing income disparity. Over the medium run, policies aimed at reducing high inequality through more equitable taxes and a reinforced social security system will result in long-term poverty reduction, a greater middle class, and increased private consumption as an economic driver.
Will China surpass the United States?
According to the British consultancy Centre for Economics and Business Research (CEBR), China’s GDP would rise at 5.7 percent per year until 2025, then 4.7 percent per year until 2030. China, now the world’s second-biggest economy, is expected to overtake the United States as the world’s largest economy by 2030, according to the report.
Who is the more powerful, China or America?
The US has resisted the global epidemic to acquire comprehensive power in Asia for the first time in four years, solidifying its place at the top, while China has lost ground and has no obvious path to uncontested domination in the region.
The Lowy Institute’s 2021 Asia Power Index used 131 factors to evaluate 26 countries in the Indo-Pacific area on eight criteria, including economic resources, military spending, and cultural and diplomatic impact.
According to a study of regional power shifts, the United States has surpassed China in two key categories: diplomatic influence and projected future resources and capabilities, expanding its lead over China as Asia’s most powerful country.
It’s the first time the US has grown in power since the Asia Power Index was introduced in 2018, and it follows a severe drop in 2020 when COVID-19 destroyed the country.
Why will China never be able to overtake the United States?
During the epidemic, the US GDP declined 2.3 percent while China’s expanded by the same amount, but China’s per-capita GDP is still around 20% lower than the US, according to Bloomberg economists’ estimations.
Intel is the latest firm in the United States to apologize to China while advocating for social justice at home.
Stanford historian Niall Ferguson paints a picture of the CCP’s extreme control over practically every aspect of the economy’s limits: Initially, this control allowed the party to significantly strengthen the economy and assist it in recovering from significant disasters that could have spelled certain doom for other countries such as preventing a “Lehman moment” from Evergrande scrapping a Shanghai listing for an electric vehicle subsidiary.
However, the same regulation might hinder the economy from producing the kind of innovation that would help China rise to the top. The amount of a toll is debatable.
According to Newsweek, London-based consultancy Capital Economics (CE) claims that China’s workforce has dropped and would continue to decline by more than 0.5 percent by 2030.
“The most likely scenario is that China’s productivity growth slows and its workforce shrinks, preventing it from ever reaching the United States,” the report said. Inflation and the exchange rate, according to CE, will have a crucial role in determining how the economic impasse plays out.
China has likewise resisted attempts to expand its economy, causing economic development to decelerate albeit slightly over the last decade.
According to George Manus, an associate at Oxford University’s China Centre and a senior economic advisor to UBS Investment Banking, the most speculative argument points to the middle-income trap as the obstacle that will hinder China from attaining its goals.
Magnus claims that the middle-income trap is “usually marked by difficult economic adjustment and often by unanticipated political ramifications” in an op-ed published by The Guardian.
Since 1990, China’s GDP has doubled while America’s has halved, but that growth boom has come to an end. Forecasts for when China will overtake the US continue to regress, evoking memories of 1930s Germany and the Soviet Union’s later decades.
China’s response over the next ten years will determine whether it follows in the footsteps of the other rivals or succeeds where they failed.
