Per Capita Net State Domestic Product (Per Capita NSDP) measures the average economic output generated per person within a specific state or region after accounting for the depreciation of capital assets. It is calculated by dividing the Net State Domestic Product (NSDP), which represents the total value of goods and services produced within a state, by its population. Unlike Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP), which reflects the overall production without considering depreciation, NSDP provides a more accurate representation of the state's sustainable economic output. The per capita element offers insight into the average living standards and productivity of individuals within the state, making it a valuable indicator for comparing economic performance across regions and assessing the financial well-being of residents.

Structural Change is the phenomenon witnessed by almost all the developing and the developed states in their journey towards a higher sustained economic growth. The rise in per capita income and the structural change are complementary to each other. A rise in per capita income reinforces structural change and structural change leads to the rise in the productive efficiency stimulating rise in the per capita income of the people. The paper analyses this phenomenon in the state of Bihar which has, of late, started ta witness a higher growth trajectory in its economy. Sourcing the data from the archival records of the various government agencies, the study found that the state of Bihar has mirrored the structural change being experienced by the economy of India. The share of the primary sector in the state's GSDP has drastically declined and is replaced by the services sector. This phenomenon is particularly ascribed to the rising share of trade, communications and the government led public spending in the construction sector.

It has also been seen that due to the low economic base of the state, we cannot expect that the state's socio-economic indicators will converge sooner to the_ more developed states of India.
