differently and so a sectors current output and inputs are to be suitably adjusted
for their respective price movements in
order to arrive at the GVA of that sector
at constant prices. Except for estimating
constant price GVA for agriculture, the
CSO continues to follow the single deflation method for several other sectors in
the new series.3
The CSO in the new series of NAS
provides the value of output and intermediate consumption, both at current
and constant prices, for all 11 major sectors, including manufacturing. Using
this information, this note aims to
estimate the GVA of the manufacturing
sector, but by following the double
deflation method. While the implicit
output deflator under the new series
can be directly used for deflating value
of output, there is no input price index
per se. So we independently construct
an index of input prices based on the
information available in the latest available inputoutput tables for 200708
(CSO 2012b).4
Input Intensity: A Backdrop
We have examined input intensity, that
is, value of intermediate consumption
to output, for various years for which
inputoutput tables are available (Table 1,
p 79). Intermediate consumption used to
be in the order of 36.8% of total domestic output in the economy in 196869,
and went up to 50.7% in 200708. A
steady increase in the percentage share
of intermediate consumption in total
output has thus been noticed throughout, except in the 1990s. In 200708,
intermediate consumption (input) items
comprised commodities and services
that accounted for 40.7% and 10% of
total output respectively. As a percentage of output, both commodities and
services inputs have been rising over
the years.
To extend the above results, we have
used the information given in the new
series to work out intermediate consumption as a percentage of total output
for 11 sectors for three years starting
from 201112 (Table 2, p 79). At the
aggregate level, intermediate consumption
