Financial firms' operating surplus

Value in 2023-24

₹10.87 lakh crore

3.7% of GDP

Gross flows can exceed GDP. GDP counts only final output once; the map also shows the inputs firms buy from each other and the money that passes through financial markets.

What it is

The gross operating surplus of financial corporations. Its total follows national accounts; the split among the RBI, banks, NBFCs and insurers is estimated.

Trend

No annual series; only the 2023-24 SAM value exists.

What is inside

The entries that make up this flow, largest first.
