      Solution

      Income Distance carries the largest weight of 42.5% in the 16th Finance CommissionтАЩs tax devolution formula. This criterion is designed to promote equity by directing a higher share of tax devolution to lower-income states. Income Distance is defined as the difference between a stateтАЩs per capita GSDP and the average per capita GSDP of the top three states.
