Growth of Output & Productivity of the Indian Organized Manufacturing Industries: A Comparative Study of Fifteen Major States

This paper attempts to estimate growth of output and productivity of the organized manufacturing industries in India during 1981-82 to 2010-2011, the pre- and post-reform period (1981-82 to 1990-91 and 1991-92 to 2010-11 respectively) as well as over the decades during the period. So far as the industrial growth is concerned, annual growth rates, average annual growth rates as well as trend growth rates of output are estimated for the organized manufacturing industries in India and in its fifteen major industrialized states. The study further estimates partial as well as total factor productivity growth (TFPG) of the organized manufacturing industries in India and in states in India.
