Recently, India govt came out with state wise break up of Income tax collected. I was curious to know how my state (Manipur) fared comparing with the rest of states and Union Territories.
Data are as follows:
Overall Maharashtra and Delhi contributes more than 50% of income tax to India. A very surprising data I found interesting was that of the state of Gujarat. When the PM is telling everyone to follow the Gujarat model, the state only contributes 5.3% of income tax.

Data are as follows:
The collection from Manipur is only 53.31 crores. That is .0000766 % contribution to Govt of India. It is almost the combined tax collected from Salman, Akshay and Shah Rukh Khan[1]. That small!
The state Sikkim is very small but gives back Rs. 323.88 crores to GoI. Almost 5 times larger than my state.
