First Advance Estimates of National Income, 2017-18

 

 

 

The Central Statistics Office (CSO), Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation has released the First Advance estimates of national income at constant (2011-12) and current prices, for the financial year 2017-18. These are presented in Statements 1-4.

 

2.         The First Advance Estimates of GDP have been released in accordance with the release calendar of National Accounts@. The approach for compiling the advance estimates is based on benchmark-indicator method. The Sector-wise estimates are obtained by extrapolation of  indicators like (i) Index of Industrial Production of first 7 months of the financial year, (ii) financial performance of listed companies in the private corporate sector available upto quarter ending September,2017 (iii) 1st advance estimates of crop production, (iv) accounts of  Central & State Governments, information on indicators like deposits & credits, passenger and freight earnings of railways, passengers and cargo handled by civil aviation, cargo handled at major sea ports, sales of commercial vehicles etc. available for first 8 months of the financial year.With the introduction of Goods and Services Tax (GST) from 1st July 2017 and consequent changes in the tax structure, the total tax revenue used for GDP compilation include non-GST revenue and GST revenue. For the year 2017-18, the Budget estimates of tax revenue as provided by Controller General of Accounts (CGA) has been used for estimating taxes on products at current prices.  For compiling taxes on products at constant prices, volume extrapolation is done using volume growth of taxed goods and services and aggregated to get the total volume of taxes. Annual forecast of indicators which are available for first 7/8 months is based on regression using seasonal dummies to account for seasonal fluctuations.Some indicators like IIP has been compiled by dividing the cumulative value for the first 7 months of the current financial year by average of ratio of cumulative value of 7 months to the annual value of past years.The salient features of the estimates are detailed below:

 

  1. ESTIMATES AT CONSTANT (2011-12) PRICES

Gross Value Added (GVA) at Basic Prices

 

4.         Real GVA, i.e, GVA at basic constant prices (2011-12) is anticipated to increase from `111.85 lakh crore in 2016-17 to `118.71 lakh crore in 2017-18. Anticipated growth of real GVA at basic prices in 2017-18 is 6.1percent asagainst 6.6percent in 2016-17.

 

5.         The sectors which registered growth rate of over 7.0 percent are, 'public administration, defence and other services’, ‘Trade, hotels, transport, communication and services related to broadcasting’, ‘electricity, gas, water supply and other utility services’ and 'financial, real estate and professional services'. The growth in the ‘agriculture, forestry and fishing’, ‘mining and quarrying’, ‘manufacturing’, and ‘construction’ is estimated to be 2.1 per cent, 2.9 per cent, 4.6 percent and3.6percent respectively.

The GVA estimates of this sector have been compiled using the First Advance Estimates of production of major kharif crops for 2017-18 and targets based onrabi sowings. According to the information furnished by the Department of Agriculture and Cooperation (DAC), the production of food grains during the Kharif season of agriculture year 2017-18 was 134.67 million tonnes as compared to 138.52 million tonnes during the same period in 2016-17.  In case of livestock sector, estimates of production, mainly in the form of production targets for milk, egg, meat and wool from the Department of Animal Husbandry, Ministry of Agriculture has been used.

 

Mining and quarrying

 

7.         GVA at basic prices for 2017-18 from ‘mining and quarrying’ sector is estimated to grow by 2.9percent as compared to growth of 1.8 percent in 2016-17. The key indicators of mining sector, namely, production of coal, crude oil and natural gas registered growth rates of 1.5 per cent, (-)0.2percent and 3.7percent respectively during April-November,2017-18. Annual forecast of production estimated in respect of these items have been used to extrapolate the Provisional Estimates of value of output of coal, crude petroleum, and other major and minor minerals, respectively.IIP ofmining registered growth rate of 3.4percentduring April-October, 2017-18.The advance estimate of IIP of Mining compiled for the current year has been used for compilation. The private corporate sector growth in the mining sector for 2017-18 is estimated using the information available on the performance of major listed companies during the first half of financial year 2017-18.

 

Manufacturing

8.         GVA at basic prices for 2017-18 from ‘manufacturing’ sector is estimated to grow by 4.6

percent as compared to growth of 7.9percent in 2016-17. Theprivate corporate sector growth in

 

 

the manufacturing sector for 2017-18  is estimated using latest available information on major listed companies during first half of financial year 2017-18. The private corporate sector growth (which has a share of over 70 percent in the manufacturing sector) as estimated from available data of listed companies is 7.4percent at current prices during 2017-18. The quasi corporate and unorganized segment (which include individual proprietorship and partnerships and khadi& village Industries has a share of around 21percent in the manufacturing sector)has been estimated using IIP of manufacturing.The advance estimates of IIP for the current year at 2-digit level is used toextrapolate the previous year’s value added estimates at 2-digit level, separately for the quasi corporate and household sectors. IIP manufacturing registered growth of 2.1percentduring April-October,2017-18. The Wholesale Price Index (WPI), in respect of the manufactured products registered a growth of 2.6percent during April-November,2017-18.

Advance Estimate of IIP of Electricity compiled for 2017-18 has been used for compilation. IIP of Electricity registered a growth rate of 5.3percent during April-October, 2017-18.

 

Construction

10.GVA at basic prices for 2017-18 from ‘Construction’ sector is expected to grow by3.6percent as compared to growth of 1.7percent in 2016-17.
