Short-term Projection of Net Domestic Product at Current and Constant Prices

at Current and Constant Prices THE annual publication1 on net national product in India includes the provisional estimates of net domestic product with a time-lag of about one year or more. Thus, at present, the estimates have been published upto 1969-70 only. Even the quick estimates which are based on partial data and past growth rates appear with a lag of about six months. In view of the urgency with which these estimates are required for planning purposes an attempt has been made here to work out advance estimates of net domestic product (NDP).
