Growth of GDP and major sectors (in %) -

To achieve the growth in  GDP by 9 to 9.5 percent as per (XII plan) the agricultural, industrial and service sectors have to grow at the rates of :

4 to 4.2, 9.6 to 10.9, 10 Percentage Points Respectively

The correct answer is option (3) : 4 to 4.2, 10, 9.6 to 10.9, 10 Percentage Points Respectively

To achieve the overall GDP growth target of 9.5% as per the XII Plan, let's analyze the required growth rates for each sector based on the provided data:

• Agriculture: Target growth rate is 4.2%
• Industry: Target growth rate is 10.9%
• Services: Target growth rate is 10.0%

Now, comparing these with the actual growth rates observed:

• Agriculture: It needs to grow from 4.0% (actual during 2012-2017) to 4.2%.
• Industry: It needs to grow from 9.6% (actual during 2012-2017) to 10.9%.
• Services: It needs to maintain its growth rate at 10.0%, which is already on target.
