Sector Distribution Maharashtra's economy has a strong base of industries and sectors spread across the region favorable for the same. The three primary parts of Maharashtra's GDP are Agriculture, Industry & Services. Agriculture Historically, India has divided its economy and GDP and followed them into three sectors: agriculture, industry, and services. Agriculture includes crops, horticulture, the dairy and animal industries, aquaculture, fishing, fish farming, beekeeping, forestry, and related activities. Although Maharashtra is a highly industrialized state in India, agriculture remains the state's main occupation. Because most of the land is arable because it is still raining, the southwest monsoon season between June and September is critical to the state's food and livelihood. Therefore, the agricultural calendar of Maharashtra and other parts of India follows the monsoon. Any change in the temporal distribution, spatial distribution, or amount of rainy seasons can lead to floods or droughts, leading to the suffering of the agricultural sector. This has a cascading impact on the secondary sectors of the economy, the general economy, food inflation, and thus the overall quality and cost of living for the general population. Industry This is a sector where the vast majority of the population use to perform their job. The industry basically means a manufacturing unit or plant that runs multiple operations to manufacture or process particular goods or items. Maharashtra has a rich history of having textile mills, where Mumbai was the HQ of India's mills. Bhiwandi, Ichalkaranji, Malegaon, and Solapur are among the major textile industries today. Other than these, Pharmaceuticals, Automobiles, Electronics, Chemicals, Engineering, Food processing, Heavy machineries, Paper & Paper products are the sectors that contribute at large in Maharashtra's industry segment. Services Sector The services sector holds the dominant position where it contributes around 55-60% to Mahrashtra's GDP. This sector is a mix of traditional and modern services. Banking & Finance services hold the highest position in the state as it caters to Asia's oldest stock exchange, BSE. Not just that, India's major banks have their HQ in Mumbai.
