Discrepancies in the statistical GDP data refer to the difference in national income under production method and expenditure method.
According to experts, there will always be some discrepancies in national accounts because of delay in reporting of information by various agencies including state governments.

However, they say that the government make all efforts to reduce discrepancies.
There are three methods of computation of national income namely, production, expenditure and income.
The NSO’s first estimates of national accounts for this fiscal also showed that the country’s gross value added (GVA) will grow at 6.9 per cent 2023-24, lower than 7 per cent in 2022-23.
However, the GDP growth is pegged at 7.3 per cent this fiscal, higher than 7.2 per cent in 2022-23.
The GDP (Gross Domestic Product) is GVA plus net of taxes.
The computation of national accounts assumes significance in view of evidence based policy making in the country. |
