Limitation of Gross Domestic Products (GDP) Includes

GDP does not make any measures of welfare and only includes market transactions.GDP does not describe income distribution and what is being produced.

Failure to indicate whether the nation's rate of growth is sustainable or not and no degree of income inequality in society

Limitation of Gross National Products :

The same difficulty regarding economic and social costs arises because there is no identity between the economic costs of producing the current national output and the social costs of the output.
