Note: -- * Bihar Agril.Produce Marketing (Regulation) Act Repealed from 1st September,2006.

In West Bengal sub yards include cold storages and hence figures of total regulated markets and
wholesale markets are not comparable.
All principal regulated markets are wholesale markets, whereas sub market yards may / may not be a wholesale
market as it also includes some of Rural Primary Markets notified for regulation.
