Consumer Price Index

New Series of Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial Workers
on base 2001=100
1. OBJECTIVE
Labour Bureau, since its inception, has, inter-alia, been entrusted with the responsibility
of compilation and maintenance of the Consumer Price Index Numbers for Industrial Workers
(CPI-IW). The CPI-IW purports to measure the temporal change in the retail prices of fixed
basket of goods and services being consumed by the target group i.e. an average working class
family and thus, is an important indicator of the retail price situation in the country. The CPI-IW
is mainly used for the determination of dearness allowance being paid to millions of
Central/State Government employees as also to the workers in the industrial sectors besides
fixation and revision of minimum wages in scheduled employments. The main objective of the
CPI-IW (new series) was to update the base year of the previous series of Consumer Price Index
Numbers for industrial workers (Base 1982=100) to 2001=100.
2. MAIN CONSTITUENTS
Three most important constituents of the CPI-IW are the centre specific weighting
diagrams, the retail price data and the house rent data.
A. Updation of Weighting diagrams
(I) Conduct of Income & Expenditure Survey:
The field staff of the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) through a detailed
questionnaire collected the income and expenditure data in order to reflect the change in the
consumption pattern of the working class population at all the 78 selected centres across the
country during 1999-2000 under the overall guidance and supervision of the Labour Bureau.
Detailed instructions were issued by the Labour Bureau for canvassing of schedules by the field
staff in order to ensure uniformity in collection of data having emphasis on its accuracy. Besides,
extensive training was imparted to the Officers/Officials of the NSSO at different places by the
Labour Bureau before the launch of the actual work.
(II) Scrutiny of Schedules:
Two levels of scrutiny ensured the reliability and authenticity of data collected from the
field. At the first level, the NSSO made elaborate arrangements for field scrutiny of canvassed
schedules on the basis of field scrutiny manual circulated by the Labour Bureau. Thereafter,
these schedules were again scrutinised in detail by the Labour Bureau to ensure consistency in
the collected data. Discrepancies revealed during the course of the scrutiny were reconciled by
referring the scrutiny points to the respective RO/SRO of the NSSO and also by making actual
visits to the field.
(III) Tabulation of data:

The responsibility for computerised processing and tabulation of data under the new
series was entrusted to the Regional Computer Centre (RCC), now known as DOEACC,
Chandigarh, which had undertaken this assignment earlier also under the previous series. The
tabulation was done on the basis of the estimation procedure and tabulation plan duly approved
by the Technical Advisory Committee on Statistics of Prices and Cost of Living (TAC on
SPCL). In this regard detailed instructions were supplied to the RCC. The entire exercise which,
inter-alia, included data entry, data cleaning, generation of tables at sub-sample/sector/centre
levels and their validation, were completed with the active support of the Labour Bureau.
(IV) Derivation of Weighting Diagrams:
The weighting diagrams for the purpose of compilation of index numbers had been
derived on the basis of average monthly family expenditure. The average budget derived from a
family budget enquiry consisted of all items of expenditure reported by the families surveyed.
These items of expenditure can be broadly divided as;
(a) Consumption Expenditure;
(b) Non-Consumption Expenditure; and
(c) Capital Outlays.
Only consumption expenditure has been considered for the purpose of a weighting
diagram for construction of consumer price index series as is the usual practice followed
everywhere. Non-Consumption expenditure and expenditure on Capital outlays like income tax
and other direct taxes, charities and gifts, interest on debts, repayment of debts, litigation
expenses, life insurance premium etc. have not been included in the index basket.
The consumption groups commonly adopted for working class consumer price index
numbers are as follows:
IA - Food
IB - Pan, Supari, Tobacco & Intoxicants
II - Fuel and Light
III - Housing
IV - Clothing, Bedding and Footwear
V - Miscellaneous.
The Food Group and the Miscellaneous Group have been further divided into sub-groups
as follows:
Food Group:
(a) Cereals & Cereal Products
(b) Pulses and Pulse Products
(c) Oils and Fats
(d) Meat, Fish and Eggs
(e) Milk and Milk Products
(f) Condiments & Spices
(g) Vegetables & Fruits
(h) Other Food.
Miscellaneous Group:
(a) Medical Care
(b) Education, Recreation & Amusement
(c) Transport & Communication
(d) Personal Care & Effects
(e) Others
B. Updation of retail price data
(I) Organisation of Price Collection Work:
Before the launch of the main survey, pilot surveys on scientific lines were conducted at
all the 78 centres to demarcate the centre-boundaries with a reference to market selection;
selection of markets & shops; testing and finalisation of price collection schedule alongwith
fixation of specifications of the items to be priced; setting up of price collection machinery in
consultation with State Govt. by appointing Price Collectors/Supervisors and fixation of price
collection day. With the setting up of price collection machinery, retail prices from 289 selected
markets started flowing into the Labour Bureau. Initially, a very exhaustive price collection
schedule was introduced in the field, which was pruned in the beginning of the year 2000 on the
basis of actual expenditure reported in the first four sub-rounds of the main survey except for
seasonal items. These schedules were again revised on the basis of actual weighting diagrams
and would continue throughout the lifetime of the series.
(II) Study of the Run of Prices:
The retail prices are collected on a weekly/monthly basis by the Price Collectors through
personal visits to the selected/reserved shops in the markets on the appointed price collection day
every week/month. The work of the Price Collectors is also being supervised by the Price
Supervisors. Both the Price Collectors as well as the Price Supervisors are employees of the
respective State Governments who work on part-time basis in lieu of which some honorarium is
paid to them by the Labour Bureau. There is a State Co-ordinator who is the overall incharge for
the Price Collection work for the entire State. Besides, the officials of the different Regional
Offices/Sub-Regional Office of the Labour Bureau undertake periodic price audit work at
different centres on a regular basis. Prices for each commodity are collected from two selected
shops of each of the selected markets. The prices collected from the field are subjected to
detailed examination from the point of view of consistency on account of inter-shop, inter-
market and inter-period variations. Discrepancies wherever found are referred to the field and
prices are rectified accordingly before utilising the data for index compilation. The seasonal
pattern as reflected in the price movement has been specially looked into. The weekly/monthly
quotations are first averaged at market level for a month and by pooling the market averages the
Centre level average price for an item for a month is arrived at.
C. Conduct of Repeat House Rent Surveys
The change in rent and related charges, which constitute a single item under housing
group, is captured through Repeat House Rent Surveys, which are conducted in the form of six-
monthly rounds. The survey is conducted on a sub-sample of dwellings covered during the main
income & expenditure survey in 1999-2000. The index for the housing group is revised twice in
a year i.e. in January and July of every year. The index is calculated once in every six months
and is kept constant for the entire six months on account of the tendency of house rent to remain
more or less stable over short periods. Under the house rent survey, three types of dwellings viz.
Rented, Rent free and Self-owned (Owner occupied) are covered uniformly across all the
centres. This practice was also followed in the previous series of the CPI-IW (1982=100).
3. FINALISATION OF BASE YEAR:
The well-known criteria used for the selection of base year are:
· The base year should preferably synchronise with the period of the income & expenditure
survey and should not be very distant from the actual period of the survey.
· Reliable price data should be available for the chosen period.
· The base year should be a normal year i.e. a year in which there is no abnormalities in the
price level and price variations.
· The base year of the constituent centres should be uniform so as to facilitate easy and quick
compilation of the All-India Index.
Though the price data were being collected and dispatched to the Labour Bureau
immediately after setting up of the Price Collection machinery from majority of the centres, yet,
prices could be stabilised in strict sense from all the 78 centres only in the year 2001.
Accordingly, calendar year 2001 has been taken as the base for all the centres under the new
series. Apart from the reliability of price data, selection of calendar year 2001 as the base year
also seemed to be justified keeping other factors into consideration. Going by the broad
economic indicators the overall price behaviour across the country was more or less normal.
4. METHODOLOGY FOR COMPILATION OF INDICES:
Index Formula:
The most preferred index formula used for compilation is the Laspeyre’s base weighted
formula because of its inherent practical advantages. The formula in its aggregative form is
expressed as below;
 Pn Qo
In = -------- x 100
 Po Qo
The operational form of the formula is obtained by adjusting the numerator  Pn Qo

as  Qo Po x (Pn / Po) which is simply an alternative algebric expression without
changing its significance or value and is given as;
Qo Po x (Pn / Po ) x 100
In = -----------------------------
 Qo Po
where Qo Po denotes the expenditure on an item in the base period and is termed as the
weight and ( Pn / Po ) X 100 is called Price Relative, which is the ratio of the current period price
to base period price of an item.
5. CONSTRUCTION OF INDICES
i) Centre Specific indices
Centre specific indices in respect of all the 78 centres are being compiled on month to
month basis by utilizing the expenditure on an item in the base period and the ratio of current
period price to base period price of an item.
ii) Index for Housing Group

As a natural corollary to the index, house rent data, is being collected for compilation of
house rent indices through the Repeat House Rent Surveys on a six month round basis. So far,
the fieldwork upto 8th rounds has been completed and the fieldwork for the 9th round is,
currently, in progress.
iii) Construction of All India Index
The All India Index is the weighted average of the 78 centre level indices. The centre
weights are being determined as the ratio of product of average consumption expenditure per
family as per the main survey and the number of Working Class Families represented by a centre
in a State to sum of such products over all the centres. In order to pre-empt over weighting to
big cities in respect of their contribution to All India Index, each centre is assumed to represent
an equal share of the number of working class families within the State. In case the actual
working class population (as per the main survey) for a particular centre exceeds the
proportionate share accruing to the centre, the actual population of the centre is taken to
determine its share and the remainder of the working class population in the State as a whole is
equally distributed amongst remaining centres in the State.
6. EXAMINATION AND APPROVAL OF TECHNICAL DETAILS
The Technical Advisory Committee on Statistics of Prices and Cost of Living (TAC on
SPCL) got examined all the technical details pertaining to updation of the CPI-IW (1982=100) to
a recent base by a Sub-group of the TAC. The Sub-group comprised of Director General & Chief
Executive Officer, NSSO, M/o Statistics & Programme Implementation as the Chairman and
Director General, Labour Bureau; Deputy Director General, Central Statistical Organisation;
Adviser M/o Finance; Economic Adviser M/o Industry; Adviser, DESACS RBI, Mumbai &
Prof. Abhijit Sen, JNU as Members. The recommendations of the Sub-Group were placed before
the TAC on SPCL for its consideration and approval in the 43rd meeting held on 15.07.2004
wherein the TAC accorded its approval to the methodology for compilation of indices under the
CPI-IW (new series).
7. CONSULTATION WITH USERS’
In line with the recommendations of various Committees regarding involvement of

Users i.e. representatives of the Employers, the Employees (Trade Unions) and the State
authorities at different stages of the exercise for updation of the base to ensure wider
participation and enhanced acceptance, Labour Bureau had a series of consultations with these
bodies at various Centre and State levels during the setting up of the Price Collection Machinery
at the 78 selected centres under the CPI-IW (New Series). The active involvement of these
agencies besides the Planning/Labour Departments of the State Governments go a long way in
ensuring desired level of transparency in the compilation of these indices, which in turn provides
credibility and wider acceptance. Since the CPI-IW is primarily used for determining the amount
of dearness allowance to be paid to millions of industrial workers in Public/Private sectors and
employees of Central/State Governments, it has therefore, been a continuous endeavour on the
part of the Labour Bureau to involve users at various stages of updation processes of the index
numbers.
8. MEETING WITH USERS’ PRIOR TO THE RELEASE OF THE INDEX
A two day National Level Index Users’ Meeting was organized on 19th-20th May,
2005 at Shimla in connection with the release of the new series of the CPI-IW. The
representatives of Central/State Ministries/Departments, Employers’ Associations and Central
Trade Unions participated in the deliberations in the Tripartite Meeting. The meeting was
convened to seek the tripartite concurrence for the release of the CPI-IW (New Series) on base
2001=100, which was to replace the existing series of the CPI-IW (1982=100). All the technical
issues relating to compilation of the CPI-IW 2001=100 series as well as the process for regular
consultation with the Users’ especially the Central Trade Unions and Employers’ Organizations
were discussed. There was a broad consensus so far as the technical aspects of the exercise was
concerned. Nonetheless it was decided to “address the issues pertaining to participation of the
Central Trade Unions as well as the Employers’ Organizations in the deliberations of the
Technical Advisory Committee on Statistics on Prices & Cost of Living (TAC on SPCL) besides
evolving a suitable mechanism for periodic involvement of the users’ during the conduct of the
entire exercise, prospectively, for future revision of base”, in a meeting to be chaired by the
Hon’ble Labour & Employment Minister with the representatives of Central Trade Unions.
As a follow-up of the National Level Index Users’ Meeting, a meeting with the
representatives of Central Trade Unions was held on 9th September 2005 in the Ministry under
the Chairmanship of the Secretary, Labour & Employment. The issues discussed pertained to the
participation of the Central Trade Unions and the Employers’ Organizations in the TAC on
SPCL. It was decided that a meeting of the reconstituted TAC on SPCL having the members
from the Central Trade Unions and Employers’ Organizations would be held prior to the release
of the new series of CPI-IW on base 2001=100.
The 45th meeting of the TAC on SPCL was, therefore, held on 17 th February, 2006,
wherein 3 representatives each of the Central Trade Unions and the Employers’ Organisations
participated in its deliberations on the release of the new series of CPI-IW on base 2001=100.
After discussions the TAC on SPCL decided that in view of improvements made in the new
series as also the urgent need for updated base, the CPI –IW ( New Series) should be released.
Accordingly, with the approval of Govt. of India, the Labour Bureau released the new series of
the CPI-IW on base 2001=100 with effect from January, 2006 index on 9 th of March, 2006. The
details of Centre-wise and All-India Index Numbers alongwith Linking Factors with previous
series of CPI-IW on base 1982=100 may be seen in the Table Nos. A.1.1.1 and A1.1.2 of this
issue of the Indian Labour Journal.
