INTRODUCTION
Price collection is one of the important tasks being attended by the

Directorate of Economics & Statistics. The importance and usefulness of the
information pertaining to the price movements has much significance in the
context of controlling prices to avoid exploitation of adverse conditions.
Prices affect all sections of society and as such Price Statistics are regarded
as the most important economic data reflecting changes in the economy of a
country. Prices affect both producers and consumers significantly. A rise in prices
would upset all development activities and also affect an individuals’ household
budget . Any sudden rise or fall in the prices is bound to have an adverse effect on
the whole economy. The spurt in the prices or the movement of prices with a high
acceleration is termed as high inflation. Abnormal behavior of prices especially in
case of food items is a cause of great concern to administrators and public. The
price rise is characterized by rising deficits, high growth in money supply,
depreciating rupee, nominal rates lagging behind real interest rates and an
abysmally low growth of employment.
The mechanism of prices is basically a function of supply and demand. The
purchasing power of money varies inversely with the price level. Price is often
termed as a Barometer of real purchasing power of the community. A rise in the
price level means a reduction in the purchasing power of money. Inflation is
caused due to an excess demand over short supply of the commodities, pumping
of more money in the economy, unwise import/export policies, unsound taxation
policies, natural calamities, war , adverse seasonal conditions etc.
Price Statistics relates 1. Retail Prices 2. Wholesale Prices. This influence is
on a wide range of economic activities and a constant watch on prices becomes
necessary for the operation and regulation of planning and policy formulations.
The Price Statistics are extremely useful in a number of ways. It will be
cleared in the following points.
1. Price Statistics are useful to the Government and the Private employees
for adjusting wages and salaries of the employees.
2. Price data are needed to control prices of commodities.
3. Price data are needed in order to evaluate the terms of trade.
4. Price data reveal the inflationary and deflationary pressures and help in
taking suitable corrective action.
1
5. These are useful in evolving a suitable price policy
The Commissioner of Civil Supplies is organizing Price Monitory Committee
meeting frequently under the Chairmanship of the Chief Secretary to monitor the
prices of essential commodities.
The Directorate has been collecting data on Prices, Wages and construct of
Indices on various prices to meet the requirement of both Central and State
Governments, in addition to the estimation of Gross State Domestic Product
(GSDP) and Gross District Domestic Product (GDDP).
The indices released by the Government of India viz., Consumer Price Index
of Industrial Workers, Agricultural Labourers & Rural Labourers, Urban, Rural &
Combined and Wholesale Price Index are also included in this report.
This Publication is divided into three parts i.e., Prices, Wages and Index
Numbers. The details are as follows.
Part-I (Prices):
1) Daily Retail Prices of 6 Essential Commodities,
2) Weekly Retail Prices of 25 Essential Commodities,
3) Wholesale Prices of 40 Agricultural Commodities,
4) Agricultural Prices (Farm Harvest Prices)
5) Prices of Livestock & Livestock Products
6) Prices of Building Material

Central Series
2) Consumer Price Index Numbers of Agricultural Laborers & Rural Labourers
3) Cost of Construction of Building Material
4) Wholesale Price Index.
5) Consumer Price Index numbers of Urban, Rural & Combined.

Part - I
PRICES
Price is the consideration paid in exchange of acquisition or availment of

goods or services either in cash or in kind or in both. It denotes the rate at which
goods are exchanged for money. Therefore, it might be difficult to judge as to which
is the cause and effect. Prices influence both the quantum of production and the
pattern of consumption. However, changes in the prices of different commodities
affect different sections of society differently. As such, it becomes necessary to
compile different types of Price Statistics, each of it has its own importance and
impact on the economy.
Prices are classified into three types viz., Retail Prices, Wholesale prices and
Farm Harvest Prices. The following types of prices are being collected by this
Directorate to cater the needs of various users.
Type-I (Retail Prices):
a) Daily Retail Prices of 6 Essential Commodities,
b) Weekly Retail Prices of 25 Essential Commodities
c) Quarterly Prices of Building Materials
d) Consumer Price Index for Industrial workers.
Type-II (Wholesale Prices):

a) 40 Agricultural Commodities
b) Livestock, Livestock Products & Livestock Feed
Type-III (Farm Harvest Prices):

The prices received by farmers for their produce at the village site. At
present, Farm Harvest prices are being collected for 23 Principal Agricultural
Commodities.
Type- IV (Wages)
a) Agricultural labourers & Rural Labourers
b) Construction workers
RETAIL PRICES: Retail prices are those actually charged to the consumers for cash
transaction and are inclusive of all taxes which are payable by them. However,
rebates and discounts given to consumers in general are taken into account. Thus,
the retail price may be defined as money cost to the consumer of a specified unit of
sale which is inclusive of all taxes but excludes all rebates, discounts, etc
3
¾ Retail prices are used to monitor prices of essential commodities for the
benefit of consumers in order to ensure affordable prices.
¾ Retail prices are also used to construct consumer price indices
¾ These prices have been collecting on daily & weekly for monitoring at
different levels right from Divisional head quarters to State in order to
take faster and effective Market intervention.
Directorate of Economics & Statistics collects and forwards the retail prices of
essential commodities regularly on Daily, Weekly, Monthly and Yearly basis to the
Civil supplies Department and to the Group of Ministers so as to take appropriate
measures for achieving the desired stability in prices by the Government.
1) DAILY RETAIL PRICES:
The Directorate has been collecting the prices of six Essential commodities
from 49 Revenue Divisional Head Quarters in the State on daily bases and
compiles on daily /weekly/Monthly bases to monitor Price trends. The (6) Essential
Commodities are Rice, Redgramdal, Groundnut Oil, Tamarind (with / without
seed), Red Chillies (dry) and Onions altogether in 13 grades. The daily prices data
is uploaded to the Hon’ble Chief Minister CORE dashboard from this department.
Period of Collection: On all working days.
Time of Collection: Every day between 10.00A.M to 1.00 P.M
Transmission of Information: Immediately after collecting the information, the
data will be transmitted to the DES through the Web
application.
Users: The Directorate will furnish the information of all 49
centers along with State averages to the
Commissioner of Civil Supplies every day. Weekly /
Monthly consolidated report is also being furnished to
the commissioner of Civil Supplies and submitted to
the Group of Ministers during the review meetings
Note: The Daily prices data of six essential commodities has been tabulated
into Month-wise and District-wise and the Monthly average is presented
in Tables 1to3.Centre wise prices are also available on DES Web-site.

2) WEEKLY RETAIL PRICES
The Directorate is also collecting and compiling the Retail Prices of
25 Essential Commodities from all the 49 Revenue Divisions in the State on Every
Friday in 30 grades.
Utility: State consolidated report is submitted to the review meeting of Group of
Ministers in addition to furnishing to the following departments regularly.
¾ The Special Chief Secretary to Govt., Plg Dept.

¾ The Commissioner of Civil Supplies,
¾ The Principal Secretary to Governor
¾ The Assistant Advisor, R.B.I.

3) WHOLESALE PRICES: Wholesale Price is generally taken as the rate at which a
relatively large transaction or purchases, usually for further sale, is effected. . The
price includes all incidentals born by the purchaser such as cost of container,
charges for weightment, Wholesalers Commission, Market Fees and Taxes, charity, if
any, etc.
COLLECTION OF PRICES
The Wholesale Prices of '40' Agricultural Commodities are collected once in a
month from all the selected wholesale centres in the State. The data will be
consolidated at the district headquarters and the district report is transmitted
through online.
The wholesale prices for each of the agricultural commodities are collected
variety-wise. The variety of the items has been selected based on major
transactions.
Month wise and Commodity wise State Average Wholesale Prices are resented
in Table-7.
SELECTION OF CENTRES
The centres have been selected based on the availability of the commodity in
the District.

4) AGRICULTURE PRICES
Agricultural prices have enormous economic and political implications. These

not only bring a balance between demand and supply but also affect the inter-
sectoral distribution of income and the rate of capital formation in the farm sector.
In our country, still more than 60 percent of the workforce eke out their livelihood
from Agriculture.
In view of the importance of the sector, it has become imperative to have

proper monitoring the agricultural prices.
Usage: These Prices used in the estimation of GSDP/DDP, ( i.e for arriving the
gross value of output of each commodity at farm gate prices/at market cost)
The prices, which are using in the estimation of GSDP are Agricultural Producer
Prices i.e. Price received by farmers for their produce at the Village site, first stage
sale of produce immediately after harvest. Farm Harvest Prices are being collected
for 23 Principal Agriculture Commodities.
(a) FARM HARVEST PRICES
Farm Harvest Price is defined “as an average price at which the commodity
in bulk is disposed off by the producers at the village site during the specified
harvest period”. Farm Harvest Prices are collected during the Peak Marketing
Period i.e., for six to eight weeks in both Kharif and Rabi Seasons separately.
These Prices have been collected for 23 Principal Agriculture Commodities viz., 1.
Paddy,2. Jowar, 3.Bajra, 4.Maize, 5.Ragi, 6.Korra, 7.Red gram, 8.Bengal gram,
9.Black gram, 10.Green gram, 11.Horse gram, 12.Cane Jaggery (Gur), 13.Onions,
14.Turmeric,15.Chillies Dry, 16.Coriander, 17.Groundnut, 18.Gingelly,
19.Safflower, 20.Castor,21.Mesta, 22.Cotton Kapas and 23.Tobacco(v).
Weighted average method is used (with production as weight) to obtain State

Weighted Average Farm Harvest Price. The Farm Harvest Prices (weighted) for the
years 2014-15 for Kharif and Rabi Seasons are presented in Table – 8.

The Average Farm Harvest Prices (Weighted) from the years 2011-12 to
2014-15 in A.P. are presented in the following graphs.

(b) RYTHU BAZAR PRICES
Andhra Pradesh is the second

Largest producer of fruits, vegetables and flowers in
the Country. The predominantly grown fruit crops
are Mango, Banana, Cashew nut, Sapota, Guava
and Pomegranate, Brinjal, Lady's finger, Onions,
Tomatoes, Beans and Gourds are the major
vegetables produced in the State.
Regulated Market Yards for fruits and vegetables

are functioning only at few centers in the State.
The Marketing system for fruits and vegetables is
in the hands of middlemen. Middlemen exist at various levels between the farmer
and the consumer and exploit through malpractices in weighments, handling and
payments.
Large number of small farmers is unable to effectively bargain for a better

price in the wholesale markets. Inefficiencies in wholesale markets result in a long
chain of intermediaries, multiple handling and loss in quality and increase the gap
between producer and consumer prices. Intermediaries and system inefficiencies
consume a disproportionate share of consumer prices. Large number of small
retailers, each handling small quantities, create high overheads leading to high
margins on produce.
It was therefore, felt necessary to evolve an alternate marketing strategy

where both growers and consumers are benefited through Rythu Bazars. Rythu
bazars are thus planned for direct interface between the farmers and the
consumers eliminating middlemen. Rythu Bazars, if function effectively can act as
price stabilization centres.
The price fixation in Rythu Bazars shall be through a committee of farmers

and the Estate Officer.
Adequate care should be taken to fix the prices realistically. If the prices in
Rythu Bazars are higher than the local market rate, there is no incentive to
10
consumers. And if the prices fixed are lower than the wholesale market rates,
there is no incentives to farmers.
The consumer will get commodities relatively at fair price when compared
with local markets and street vendors.
5) WHOLESALE PRICES OF LIVESTOCK, LIVESTOCK PRODUCTS &

LIVE STOCK FEED
Andhra Pradesh is well known for its
livestock wealth which is rapidly expanding
sector, playing a significant role in the rural
economy by providing gainful employment to a
large number of rural populations and raising
their economic status. Thus Livestock is a sub–
sector of Agriculture and contributes around 6
to 7% to state GDP.
The Directorate has been collecting the monthly whole sale prices of Live
Stock, Livestock Product, Poultry and Livestock Feed for 69 items from 53 selected
centers covering all 13 Districts in the State. These prices are used to estimate the
Gross State Domestic Product from live stock sector at state level. These prices are
collected at the point of production or at the first sale point.
II.METHODOLOGY: The prices prevailing in the primary markets where bulk
transactions take place have to be collected monthly on last Friday of the month.
The wholesale prices data pertaining to Livestock and Livestock Product , Poultry
and Livestock Feed are classified into three broad groups (i.e collected in Three
Formats) which are as follows
FORMAT-I: Prices of Cattle, Buffaloes (Cross Breed & Indigenous), Sheep, Goat,
other animals and Milk & Wool are collected in this format.
FORMAT-2: Prices of of Livestock Products such as meat, head, legs, Hide and
skin etc., are collected in this format.
FORMAT-3: Prices of Poultry and Livestock Feed etc., are collected in this format.
11
Collection of Prices: The data is collected from all Districts in the state once in a
month by following methodology as given below:
• The information relating to “Live Stock Particulars” are collected from Cattle
Sandy (Market)@ One popular center per District
• The Prices relating to “Live Stock Products” are collected from Slaughter
House @ one popular market center per District
• The Prices relating to “Poultry Products and Feed” are collected from
Predominant Poultry farms area (two poultry farms per district)
• The prices relating to “Eggs” are collected from “NECC Publication”
• The prices relating to “Wool” are collected from the Kurnool district only
• The Prices relating to “Milk” are collected from milk collection chill centre in
the selected village.
The data is processed and consolidated reports of monthly District average

prices of Livestock, Livestock Products and Live Stock Feed are worked out. The
State Annual Average Prices are being used for compilation of GVA from Live Stock
sector in Andhra Pradesh.
A Statement showing the District-wise prices of Livestock, Livestock Products &

Live Stock Feed for the year 2014-15 is prepared in Table -9.
6) Building Material Price and Wages of Construction Labour.
The main objective of collection of these data to compile an index number of:
i. Building materials prices.

ii. Building labour wages and
iii. Building construction costs for important centers
The data also shows the trend of prices of building materials and wages of
certain categories of construction labour. Presently, the data on prices and wages
are being collected from 26 centres spread over in the state.
A detailed procedure for collection of such data has been laid down by the
NBO along with instructions to cover special situations which might involve a
12
process of substitution or the prescribed grade and variety of different building
materials. Necessary proformae for collection of data have also been prescribed.
a). Building Material Price: The main aim for price data collection is to know the
price change of the prescribed quantity and quality at a particular centre on a
particular date. While collecting data on Building material price, these factors have
to be strictly followed.
1. Price of same quality to be collected every time 2. Unit must be the same
3. Quantity must be the same 4. Price must be collected from the designated shop,
and pre decided market of the centre.5. Price must be collected on the last working
day of each quarter.6. Price should be the one the builder actually paid, it should
include the sales tax and local tax if any.7. Data has to be collected without
interval/break.
In case, if prescribed grade and variety is not available in the selected shop,
the price for the same item is collected from the reserved shop. If that is also not
available, the price may be collected for the prescribed quality and quantity in any
other shop in the market. In case, prescribed quality is not available, then
commonly used quality is selected.
b). Building Labour wage
The wage rates are collected for the particular centre as follows
1. The prevailing wage on the last working day of each quarter

2. For each specified category of worker possessing a particular skill,
experience and efficiency.
3. All types of remuneration (including kind or cash) capable of being
expressed in terms of money and payable to employee should be taken in
to account.
COLLECTION OF ITEMS
The General items for which the quarterly prices are to be collected given in
this form are 1.Bricks 2.Sand 3.Stone Blast 4.Lime 5.Timber 6.Cement 7.Steel
8.Stone- slabs for flooring 9.Asbestos Cement Sheets 10.Tiles 11.Paints and
Varnish 12.Sheet Glass 13.Sanitary wares 14.Electrical Fittings 15. Wage Rates of
Building construction labour.
13
The Building Construction Cost Index for the years 2011-12 to 2014-15 for
URBAN and RURAL are presented below.

Part II
WAGES
Agriculture Labour is one of the most vulnerable segments of the
country's Labour force. The regular wage employment in the rural areas is an
exception rather than rule. Casual employment is the norm with seasonality as
characteristic feature depending upon the agricultural operations. Collection of
regular data on Agriculture labour is of paramount importance for
formulation of Wage policy and for enforcement of Minimum Wages in the
State.
1) WAGES OF AGRICULTURAL AND NON –AGRICULTURAL LABOUR
Rural labour constitutes the most vulnerable segment of the

unorganized work force. Being unorganized and scattered, the rural labour is
deprived of the benefits of labour enactments and employer-employee
relationships on contrary, their counter parts enjoy in the organized
sector of the industries. Agricultural and Non agricultural labourers have to
face themselves with the casual employment and frequent changes of
employers as well as places and with no fixed pay.
The wages of Agriculture Labour constitute one of the major components

in the cost of production of crops. It is therefore, essential to have a periodical
data on wages paid to different Occupations of Agriculture Labour in order to
assess the trends of Agriculture Commodities costs and also to compare the
Agriculture wages paid with that of minimum wages fixed to the different
occupations of Agriculture Labour in the different regions in the State.
The DES collects agricultural and non agricultural labour wages on Monthly
basis to fulfill the needs of Ministry of Agricultural, GOI .
METHODOLOGY: The Directorate collects the information on Daily Wages of

Agricultural and Non-Agricultural Labour from 44 selected villages (Centers) at
the rate of three villages from each district where Rural and Agricultural Labour
concentrated by covering 42 Divisions from 13 districts for 23 occupations in
the State. The selected villages also represent the different regions i.e., Wet,
Semi- wet and Dry tracks of the districts in order to reflect all the regions in
the State.
15
DATA COLLECTION: The concerned Mandal ASO collects the information
during last Friday of every month by oral enquiry from local knowledgeable
persons who engage the labour and who works as labour along with consulting
the Village functionaries like VRA, VRO, AEO and other village officials, the
primary informants for data on wage rates. The prevailing wage rates in cash
and kind for the reported 8 working hours are to be collected by gender-wise for
each of all occupations in the selected centre.
In case the wage rates are reported for a duration of less or more than
the normal working hours, and are first adjusted for eight hours working per
day. Payment of wages made in kind are very common in rural areas which
include food grains etc., Wages reported in kind are valuated at the prevailing
local retail prices.
Daily wage: It is defined as payment received for services rendered in
a day and includes payments in cash and imputed value of payments in kind.
A day:- It is defined as 8 working hours.
PROCESS OF COMPILATION OF AVERAGE WAGE RATES
The centre wise data received for 23 occupations from the districts is
computerized. Before computerization, the data is thoroughly scrutinized
and discrepancies, if any, are referred back to the field for clarification. In the
next stage, occupational wise collected data grouped in to category wise and
arrived at average monthly wages for four different categories. District-wise
and monthly State Average of Daily Wages of Agriculture and Non Agriculture
labour are compiled.
The information collected are compiled for the following categories.
1. Skilled Labour :- A) Carpenter B) Blacksmith C) Cobbler
2. Field Labour :- A) Men B) Women C) Non-Adult
3. Herdsmen :- A)Men B)Women C) Non-Adult
4. Other Agrl.Labour :- A)Men B)Women C)Non-Adult .
16
SKILLED LABOUR: Those labour engaged in preparation and servicing of
Agricultural implements comes under this category such as Blacksmith,
Carpenter and Cobblers of that village.
FIELD LABOUR: Those labour engaged in this category are Ploughing,

Sowing,Weeders, Transplanters, Harvesting, Winnowing, Threshing, Picking
etc.,
HERDSMEN: Those engaged in Rearing, Grazing Cattle, Sheep, Goat etc., are
termed as Herdsmen. They may be either engaged on annual basis, monthly or
daily basis.
OTHER AGRICULTURAL LABOUR: Other Agricultural Labour includes labour

engaged in digging the irrigation wells, deepening the wells, operating the
irrigation channels and wells, labour engaged in spraying pesticides and applying
manures etc.
INDEX OF DAILY WAGES OF AGRICULTURAL LABOUR
After collecting the monthly Daily wages, the data is compiled into
category wise average wage price relatives (1980-81 =100 as a base year ) and
reported to the Economic Advisor, Ministry of Agriculture and cooperation, Govt.
of India.
17
The Index of Daily Wages of Agricultural Labour for the years
20011-12 to 2014-15 in Andhra Pradesh are presented in the following
graphs.

Part III
INDEX NUMBERS
Price Index is an indicator of the average price movement over a period for a
fixed basket of goods / services. The constitution of the basket of goods &
services is done keeping in to consideration whether the changes are to be
measured in Retail, Wholesale prices etc. It is also considered as a barometer of
economic activity. There are two types of price indices, namely, the Wholesale
price index (WPI) and the consumer price index (CPI), compiled in the country.
1) Consumer Price Index : The main objective of the Consumer Price Index is
to measure changes over a period of time in the level of retail prices of a
fixed basket of goods and services of a targeted group of people consume.
¾ There are four consumer price indices compiled in the country for
different segments of consumers, namely, the industrial workers
(IW), agricultural labourers (AL) and rural labourers (RL). CPI
(Rural, Urban and combined).

: Directorate for State series
INTRODUCTION
The history of compilation & maintenance of Consumer Price Index
Numbers for industrial Workers owes its origin to the deteriorating economic
condition of the workers on account of abnormal rise in prices following the First
World War. As a result of sharp rise in prices and the cost of living, some
Provincial Governments started conducting Family Budget Enquiries and
compilation of Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial Workers in the
country. But none of them was entirely satisfactory.
In pursuance of the recommendations made by the Rau Court of Enquiry,
the job of compilation & maintenance of Consumer Price Index Numbers for
Industrial Workers was taken over by the Central Govt. in 1941.
19
However, the compilation of index numbers on uniform and scientific lines
was started only after the conduct of the Family Living Surveys during 1958-59
at 50 important industrial centres, spread over length and breadth of the
country, and compilation of Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial
Workers on base 1960=100. Since then the compilation and maintenance of
Consumer Price Index Numbers are being done by the Labour Bureau on a
continuous basis.
¾ The series (1982=100) had replaced the old (1960=100) series in
December, 1988 with the release of October, 1988 index.
¾ The new series on base 2001=100 has been released on 9th March,
2006 with January, 2006 index which has replaced the earlier
(1982=100) series.
SCOPE AND COVERAGE : Under the 1960 series of Consumer Price index
Numbers for Industrial Workers, the coverage of Industrial Workers was limited
to 3 sectors i.e. Factories, Mines and Plantations. The coverage of the Industrial
Workers for 1982 and 2001 series for the conduct of working class Family
Income & Expenditure Surveys were extended to seven sectors by including four
more sectors viz. i) Railways, ii) Public Motor Transport Undertakings, iii)
Electricity Generating and Distributing Establishments, and iv) Ports and Docks.
⇒ A Working Class Family is defined as one wherein one of the members

worked as a manual worker in any of the 7 sectors and derived half or
more of its monthly income through manual work.
Under the 2001=100 series, the Labour Bureau has been compiling
Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial Workers for 78 selected centres
and all-India as against 70 centres in the 1982 series. These 78 centres were
selected on the basis of their industrial importance in the country and distributed
among different States in proportion to the industrial employment in the State
subject to a maximum allotment of 5 centres per state per sector.
WEIGHTING DIAGRAM:
The Centre-wise Weighting Diagrams for the Index has derived from
results of Working Class Family Income and Expenditure Surveys conducted
during 1999-2000 in all the 78 selected centres. The survey was conducted over
20
a period of 12 months in each and every selected centre during 1999-2000,
with an equal number of sample of families was canvassed every month.
As it was not feasible to monitor the price behaviour of all the items on
which index population reported consumption expenditure (nor it is necessary),
only representative items were retained in the index basket, which were
manageable over time. For this purpose, the first step was to form group of
items which meet similar or related demands of the consumers.
The total expenditure on consumption items was divided into 6 main groups viz.,
I - Food
II - Pan, Supari, Tobacco & Intoxicants
III - Fuel & Light
IV - Housing
V - Clothing, Bedding & Footwear
VI - Miscellaneous
In the first and the last group, a few well-defined sub-groups have also
been formed.
Weights, which indicate relative importance attached to different items of

goods and services consumed by the index population, are determined on the
basis of expenditure made by the targeted industrial workers on these goods
and services. However, the expenditures on non-consumption items are
excluded from the weighting diagram.
The items directly retained in the basket were those which a) constitute
atleast one percent expenditure in the Group/Sub-Group; (b) had significant
number of families reporting expenditure; and c) could be priced satisfactorily
over the life of the series. The remaining items were imputed to related items or
to a group of items depending upon their similarity of want satisfying capacity,
manufacturing process or price behaviour, etc. The percentage expenditure on
each item in the sub-group/group represents its weight. Similarly, the
percentage expenditure on sub-group/group in the Group/Total consumption
expenditure represents their weight.
RETAIL PRICES
The retail prices used in the index calculation are those actually charged
to the consumers for cash transaction and are inclusive of all taxes which are
21
payable by him. However, rebates and discounts given to consumers in general
are taken into account. Thus, the retail price may be defined as money cost to
the consumer of a specified unit of sale which is inclusive of all taxes but
excludes all rebates, discounts, etc. The retail prices of price sensitive items
such as cereals, pulses, vegetables & fruits, oils & fats, etc. are collected on a
weekly basis. Similarly, the prices of some other items like cinema, furniture,
utensils, clothing, house-hold appliances, etc., which are known to vary less
frequently, are collected on monthly basis. However, the price data relating to
house rent, school/college fees and books, etc. are collected on six-
monthly/yearly basis as these items do not show much change in their price
behaviour.
The retail prices of the selected items are collected on the fixed date/day
While collecting prices, various elements such as fixity of markets, shops,
specifications, unit of purchase, day and time of price quotations, etc. are
maintained for the purpose of comparability.
HOUSING INDEX
For compiling housing index, the rented, self-owned and rent free houses
are taken into account. The rental data for self-owned houses are collected from
the comparable rented dwellings of the locality or within the vicinity of the
locality. However, for rent-free houses, rent index is frozen at 100. Thus, for
compiling the housing group index, three separate indices are compiled for rent-
free, rented and self-owned houses and these indices are combined by using
their respective weights, which are proportion of families residing in these three
categories of houses, to work out the weighted housing index for the centre.
Housing index is compiled by following ‘Chain Base method’, once in every six
months viz., January and July and kept constant for the subsequent five months.
Rental data, for utilising in the compilation of housing index, are collected twice
a year, from a sample of dwellings through half yearly Repeat House Rent
Surveys.
22
COMPILATION OF INDEX:
The index is compiled by using Laspeyres’ modified Index formula, as given
below :-
∑ P nQ o
X 100 ∑
⎛ Pn
⎜
⎝ Po
⎞
× 100 ⎟ P o Q o
⎠
In ∑ P oQ o
Or
In
∑ P oQ o
Where : In = Index number for current period
Pn = Price for current period
Po = Price for base period
Qo = Quantity for base period
In the first stage, price quotations of an item in all outlets of all the
markets in a month are averaged for a centre. On the basis of this average
price, a price relative (over base period price) is worked out. However, in case of
certain items which are supplied through subsidized outlets (fair price shops),
first the weighted average price of open market and fair outlets in each selected
market of a centre is worked out (weight being availability ratio in the respective
outlets in that month). In the next stage, a simple average of these market
prices is worked out to arrive at the centre price. On the basis of this average
centre price, a price relative is worked out. The sub-group or group index is
worked out as a weighted average of an item/sub-group index respectively. The
general index of a centre is worked out as a weighted average of group indices.
An all-India index, which is weighted average of 78 centre indices, is also
worked out every month. The weight assigned to each centre is the proportion of
the total consumption expenditure of estimated number of families allocated to a
centre in the State to sum total of all such expenditure over all centers in the
country.
On par with Central Series, the D.E. & S., A.P is also compiling the CPI-IW
with same base year 2001=100 for 4 complex centres and releasing index every
Month after approval of Standing Committee.

2) CPI NUMBERS FOR AGRICULTURAL LABOURERS & RURAL
LABOURERS (CPI AL&RL)
Base Year : 1986-87 = 100
Compiled By : Labour Bureau
INTRODUCTION:The Labour Bureau has been compiling CPI Numbers for

Agricultural Labourers since September, 1964. The existing series of CPI
Numbers for (i) Agricultural Labourers (ii) Rural Labourers (base 1986-87=100)
replaced earlier series on base 1960-61=100 w.e.f. November, 1995.
For compilation of these index numbers, the Field Operations Division
(FOD) of the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) collects Price data
every month from 600 sample villages selected from 20 States . Consumer
expenditure data collected by the NSSO during 38th round of NSS (1983) formed
the basis of the State wise weighting diagrams for the series.
The methodology approved by the Technical Advisory Committee on

Statistics of Prices and Cost of Living (TAC on SPCL) is followed for compilation of
indices for 20 States and all-India separately for (i) Agricultural and (ii) Rural
Labourers and these indices are released on monthly basis by 20th of every
succeeding month.
SCOPE & COVERAGE: The Consumer Price Index Numbers for Agricultural
Labour cover the households of agricultural labourers and the Consumer Price
Index Numbers for Rural Labour cover the households of rural labourers
(including agricultural labourers). The rural retail prices utilised in these
two series of index numbers are the same, but the weighting diagrams
used for compiling these indices are different.
The State-wise sample sizes were decided by studying the variations in

village wise prices in the old series of index numbers and keeping in view the
need for constructing State-wise CPI Numbers for (i) Agricultural and (ii) Rural
Labourers. The sample size for a State was allocated to the regions within it in
proportion to their rural population and in multiples of three. A number of
regions were formed within a State, according to similarity of agro-climatic
conditions and density of population. Within each region, strata were formed by
treating each district as a separate stratum. However, the smaller districts,
within a particular NSS region, were merged to form a separate stratum. The
allocation to a stratum was generally 3 villages.
26
WEIGHTING DIAGRAM:
The consumer expenditure data collected by the NSSO, in its 38th Round
in 1983, was used for deriving weighting diagrams for all the 20 States and All-
India, separately for Agricultural Labourers and Rural Labourers.
The average budget derived from the household consumer expenditure

survey recorded expenditure on a large number of goods and services. These
items of expenditure were divided into two categories viz., (i) non-consumption
and (ii) consumption expenditure.
¾ Only consumption expenditure was taken into account for
derivation of weighting diagrams.
¾ Expenditure on items like rent and repair of residential buildings

or land, direct taxes, priest services (including ceremonial
expenditure) and precious jewellery or ornaments ( like
gold, silver, pearl, etc.) was treated as non-consumption
expenditure and thus excluded from the average budget
¾ The expenditure on rest of the items (including the durable

goods) in the average budget was considered as consumption
expenditure.
For calculation of the index, groups and sub-groups were formed, to the
extent possible, on the pattern of CPI Numbers for industrial workers on base
1982=100 and. The expenditure was categorized into following groups:-
(i) Food;
(ii) Pan, Supari, Tobacco & Intoxicants;
(iii) Fuel & Light;
(iv) Clothing, Bedding & Footwear; and
(v) Miscellaneous.
As it was not feasible to include all the items of expenditure in the index
basket because of their un-manageability due to large number or existence of
items which can not be priced easily or non-availability of regular price data for
some of the items, recourse to imputation of expenditure was undertaken.
27
Imputations were done at four levels, viz., (i) item level, (ii) section level,
(iii) sub-group level, and (iv) group level. Item level imputation consisted of
straight addition of expenditure of one or more unpriced items to a priced item
within the same sub-group/group. Section level imputation consisted
of proportionate distribution of expenditure of one or more unpriced items over
several priced items which formed a distinct section within a sub-group/group.
After completion of expenditure imputation process, as envisaged above,

the resultant expenditure on each item within a sub-group/group was expressed
as percentage of the total expenditure on the sub-group/group to obtain item
weights within a sub-group/group. Similarly, sub-group/group weights were
derived by working out the percentage expenditure, including sub-group/group
level imputations, on each sub-group/group as compared to total consumption
expenditure. This provided the weighting diagram for compilation of the
Consumer Price Indices for (i) Agricultural and (ii) Rural Labourers of each
State. From the State-level weighting diagrams, all-India weights have been
derived.
SELECTION OF BASE YEAR: A number of factors are taken into account for
determining the base year of the series. A period affected by developments of
serious nature such as war, floods, draught etc. is not adopted as the base year
because it cannot be treated as a normal year. Generally, a year during which
the enquiry is conducted or a period not very distant from survey period for
which reliable price data are available is adopted as the base year.
The base period of the current series has been taken as agricultural year
(July, 1986 to June, 1987). Though there is a gap between the weight base
(1983) and the comparison base (1986-87), no adjustment in weights has been
made owing to differences in price levels between two periods.
COLLECTION OF RURAL RETAIL PRICES: The Field Operations Division of the

NSSO has been assigned the job and responsibility of collection of rural retail
prices every month from shops and markets catering to 600 representative
sample villages spread over 66 NSS regions in 20 States. Price collection from
these sample villages is staggered over the four weeks of a month, with one-
28
fourth of the sample being covered every week. These prices are collected on
the fixed price collection day .
TREATMENT OF ITEMS SUPPLIED THROUGH PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION

SYSTEM (PDS): For the items which are supplied through Public Distribution
System (PDS), the weighted average of fair prices and open market prices are
utilised for index compilation. The weight for fair prices is worked out as
proportion of the total requirement met through fair price shops and the balance
will form weight for open market prices. The availability of these items through
PDS will, however, be restricted to the scale of admissibility fixed by the
Government. The data in respect of rationed items are collected from selected
fair price shops in a specially designed proforma.
COMPILATION OF INDEX NUMBERS: The indices are compiled separately for

each of the 20 States at general as well as at sub-group/group level. In the
compilation of the state index, the village-wise price relative of each item is
worked out by expressing the current price as a percentage of base year price. A
simple average of village wise price relatives is worked out to arrive at regional
price relative in the State. Regional price relatives, thus derived, are weighted to
arrive at the State level price relatives, the weights being the estimated
expenditure of all rural/agricultural labour households in a region as a proportion
to expenditure of all the concerned households of all regions in the State.
The State index from these state price relatives is worked out by using the
Laspeyre,s base weighted formula.
All-India Index: The all-India index is worked out as a weighted average of the
indices of 20 States, weights being the estimated consumption expenditure of all
rural and agricultural labour households in each State as a proportion of
corresponding expenditure for all-India. All-India group indices are also compiled
by using the State weights in the particular group, derived as a proportion of
corresponding expenditure at all-India level.
a. Annual Index Numbers for agricultural years and calendar years

wherever mentioned in the report, unless specified, are simple
averages of 12 months.
29
b. To obtain indices on old series of CPI-AL (Base: 1960-61=100), the
index figures of 1986-87 series need to be multiplied by the linking
factors as given below:-
¾ General Index = 5.89

¾ Food Index = 6.38
The Minimum Wages Act in 1948 made it mandatory for the fixation and
revision of the wages in selected areas to commensurate with the price
increase so as to mitigate the erosion in the real wage. Inclusion of Agriculture
Labourers in schedule II of the said act necessitated the compilation of the
Consumer Price Index Numbers for that category for fulfilling the statutory
obligation flowing out of it.
Accordingly, Government of India compiled the Index with the Base

1950-51=100 on the results thrown up by the First Agriculture Labour Enquiry
conducted by National Sample Survey Organization (NSSO) in 1950-51. This
was replaced by the Base 1960-61=100 Series of the CPI Numbers for
Agriculture Labourers with effect from September 1964 on the basis of the
results of the Agriculture Labour Enquiry conducted in 1956-57.

3) BUILDING CONSTRUCTION COST INDEX IN A.P.
Base Year : 1988-89=100.
Compiled By : Directorate of Economics &
Statistics, Govt. of A.P., Hyderabad
Construction activity is one of the key economic indicators for measure

the development of the state and the country as a whole. Of late, this has
become a major activity in the developing countries like India. Lot of money is
being spent towards this activity by all sections of people. Purchases and
construction of buildings are not treated as consumption expenditure of the
households but treated as capital expenditure. This sector contributes nearly
7% in the estimation of GSDP
In order to study the trends of the building materials and wage rates of
building construction labour over time and a place and to construct index
numbers the National Building Organisations has introduced scheme for
collection of prices of building materials and wage rates of construction
labours.
Index series show the trends in the item for which the Index is compiled
at specified place over a period of time. Index is always time and place specific.
A building cost Index series can show the trends in the building construction
costs at specified centre over a period of time. (Base year to current year). The
price of a structure is made of mainly (a) the cost of materials and (b) the cost
of labour. A study of the relative increase or decrease in the cost of these two
components during a certain period gives an idea of the trend of construction
The Directorate has been collecting the Prices of Building Materials and
Wage Rates of Construction Workers on the last working day of every quarter
from 13 District Headquarters and 13 Rural Centres covering one from each
District and the State average as well as District wise Price details are being
sent to the National Building Organisation, New Delhi along with the wages of
the Construction Labour.
The quarterly average Prices are worked out for the State on the basis of
the Prices received from the Districts and compiles Index Numbers for Rural
and Urban Centres separately.
The Quarter-wise Building Construction Cost Index with the Base year
1988- 89=100 for the year 2014-15 is presented in the Table- 16(A) and 16(B).

4) Whole Sale Price Index
Base Year : 2004-05 = 100

Compiled By : Economic Advisor. Ministry of Commerce
and Industry
WHOLESALE PRICE INDEX (WPI) is compiled and released by the Office of the
Economic Advisor, Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion, Ministry of
Commerce and Industry on monthly basis.
The WPI measures the average change over a period of time in the selling
prices of producer’s goods. The concept of wholesale price adopted in practice
represent the quoted price of bulk transaction generally at primary stage, the
price pertaining to bulk transaction of agricultural commodities (farm harvest
prices/prices at the village mandi/ market)and ex-factory prices for others. The
base year for WPI is 2004-05.
¾ Inflation rate is calculated on a point to point basis at All India

level only i.e., on the basis of the variations between the Wholesale
Price Index for the latest week of the current year and Wholesale
Price Index for the corresponding week of previous year.
¾ The base year was changed from 1993-94 to 2004-05 and released
the index on 14th September 2010 with new base year. Total
number of items was increased from 435 to 676 and number of
quotations is also increased. No. of quotations selected for
collection of data are 5482 and Some of the important items
included are Dish antenna, Microwave oven, cells instant foods etc.
Note: The Index Numbers of the Wholesale Prices in India for all Commodities
for 2014-15 with base 2004-05 is placed in Table - 17.

(5) CONSUMER PRICE INDEX NUMBERS FOR URBAN & RURAL AREAS
Base Year : 2012= 100

Compiled By : Central Statistics Office, Govt. of India.
The Price index is an indicator of the average price movement over a
period of time in the fixed basket of goods and services. The constitution of the
basket of goods and services is done based on consumption pattern.
(6) Separate series of index numbers are being compiled to capture the price
movements in retail level in India. Details are as follows:
1. Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (CPI-IW),
2. Consumer Price Index for Agricultural Labourers / Rural Labourers
(CPI -AL/RL)
All these indices are designed to measure the changes in the prices of
goods and services consumed by specific segments of population. The National
Statistical Commission has recommended that the current CPI series does not
encompass the changes in the prices for the entire Rural and Urban population.
Hence, there is a need to compile the CPI separately for the entire Rural and
Urban populations.
Accordingly, the CSO has taken steps to compile State-wise CPI

numbers separately for Rural and Urban areas.
Month wise the Index Numbers of the CPI (Urban, Rural and Combined)
for the year 2014-15 for All India and Andhra Pradesh are placed in the
Table-18.
