City Level Income Estimation

(Revised on 03-January-2019)

1. Background

The relative affluence and standard of living of people in different cities are
often measured in terms of city level per-capita income of respective cities.
However, there is no standard methodology for estimating city level
income and no attempt has ever been made in India to get such
measures. It has, thus, been decided to attempt to estimate city level
income on a pilot basis for a few selected cities with a view to evolve a
methodology for extending it to other major cities in the country.

2. Objectives of the Study

The primary objective of the study is to develop a methodology for the

estimation of city level income and per-capita income by using available
data. In particular, the objectives of the study are the following:

(i) Examine data sets available at the national, state and city
level which can be used for the estimation of city level income;

(ii) Develop methodologies for the estimation of city level income

based on available data sets for one city each in three states;

(iii) Estimate city level income and per-capita income of the

population of the city in respect of the three selected cities;

(iv) Recommend suitable methodologies for the estimation of city

level income for other cities.

3. Overview of the Approach

Since the city level income estimation is required to assess relative affluence
and standard of living of the city dwellers, income-accruing method is more
appropriate rather than income generation approach. In other words, the
income accruing to the residents of the city has to be estimated
irrespective of their place of economic activity.

4. Estimation of Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP)

Estimates of Gross Domestic Product (GSDP) are being compiled by all the
States regularly on an annual basis by aggregating the contribution of
different industry groups. For this purpose, individual economic activities are
grouped into a number of compilation categories (See, Annex 1) on the
basis of nature of economic activity and data availability. Both the Central
Statistical Office (CSO) at all India level and the Directorates of Economics
& Statistics (DES) at the state level use the same compilation categories for
estimation to ensure consistency and comparability.

CSO and the DES use a mix of production, income and expenditure
methods for the estimation of sectoral contribution of GDP depending on
the nature of economic activity.1 State Governments also use the estimates
provided by CSO for certain sectors following apportioning methods. For
example estimates for rail and air transport, computer related services,
storage, residual category of construction etc are provided by CSO to the
state.

Some of the States also prepare estimates of District Domestic Product

(DDP) by adopting various methods including apportioning of GSDP using
labour input method. Labour input method in essence means the
allocation of GDP by the number of workers in the respective sector. These
estimates are, however, not available on a regular and periodic basis for
all the states. The States for which DDP estimates are available at 2004-05
and 2011-12 price along with the year of DDP estimates are given below:

Note: a. Availability is checked from the respective states DES portal; b. For several other states,
no district GDP data is available in the DES portal; c. All total 16 states report District GDP data
out of which 7 states have produced data at 2011-12 price and 9 have reported the data in
2004-05 price.

Therefore, using district GDP data to arrive at city GDP estimates may not
be possible. Instead, GSDP estimates prepared by the respective State
Governments will be the starting point for the estimation of city level
income. These, estimates need to be apportioned to each city by using
appropriate indicators. While District GDP estimates would have been an
ideal starting point, we would not be able to use that due to the following
reasons:

1. Non-availability of data for the latest year for all the states;
2. Non-availability of data for each of the states;
3. Use of old price series data by the states;

5. Proposed City GDP estimation Methodology

The simplest method of estimating the city level income is to multiply the
average per-capita income derived from the GSDP with the population of
the city. The method assumes that average per-capita income and
economic activities are uniform across all the cities in a State. For example
– between city A and B there will be no difference in city income if the size
of population remains same even if they have unique and distinctive
economic structure. That makes the method unsuitable for real life
application.

Another method is to multiply the average annual consumption

expenditure of the State or district with the population of the city. In this
method, the share of savings will not be accounted and uniformity in
average consumption expenditure is assumed. In addition, this method
would not differentiate between two cities in one district except for
accounting for population in the city. Besides that, consumption
expenditure survey in the country happens once in every five years
therefore calculation of annual city GDP would be a challenge.

Page 3 of 18
 A third approach is to apportion the sector-wise GSDP estimates based on
the number of workers in each sector in a city. It is a better method
provided we have reliable estimates of sector-wise GSDP as well as worker
estimates. It also assumes identical labour productivity across the State for
a particular sector.

The fourth approach is to apportion the GSDP by using other indicators like
business volumes of banks, GST collections, Direct Tax collections etc in the
State and in respective cities, provided such data are available at city level
with periodic interval. Moreover, it would not be very straightforward to
derive city GDP from such proxy indicators.

In this study, we propose to use the third approach with certain

modifications to account for productivity differentials across industry groups
rural-urban areas, formal and informal sectors.

6. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this method?

The third approach proposes apportioning the sector-wise GSDP estimates

based on the number of workers in each sector in a city.

To start with, this method takes into account distinct economic

characteristics of the city. For example – if between city A and city B, we
have differential distribution of workers in two different sectors, we will be
able to capture its effect in City GDP estimation.

Second, this method would take into account the size of the enterprises as
we are using workers as a proxy for size of economic activities.

There can be criticism that – some cities may have better production
method so that with the same number of workforce a particular city can
produce more output than another one. Does this method capture such
productivity differential? The answer is ‘No’. Spatial productivity differentials
between two cities would not be captured through this method.

To come over this challenge, we may attempt an adjustment factor, which

is discussed in the subsequent sections. Even this adjustment factor may not
rectify this anomaly completely. It may help in its minimization.

Page 4 of 18
There is one important point to remember that our method would produce
an approximate value of City GDP. It may not give the exact value of city
GDP that is largely a misnomer even in the context of country level GDP. A
lot many approximations is done even at the country level.

The other challenge, which this study poses, is data. While by taking the
state level GSDP for apportioning, we are avoiding aggregate error, there
can be error at micro level if the city is experiencing superlative growth
transformation. For example – we will be using NSSO data to find out worker
share in each industry. As on today (December 2018), latest round of NSSO
employment and unemployment survey data, which is available for public,
is for the year 2011-12. If we apply the WPR (worker population ratio) of
2011-12 to 2017 city population, the relative sectoral workforce share will
remain constant from 2011 to 2017. If the city has experienced a major
structural transformation in these years, the labour input estimate can be
imprecise estimate.

Well, typically, structural transformation is a slow process and it does not

happen so radically. Still this is a sub-optimal answer. Ideal case would have
been to use latest worker share across industries. We anticipate ‘Periodic
Labour Force Survey’ data would be available at regular interval by NSSO.
It is likely to happen every year. If such data are made available, this
problem can be tackled. It is expected that first periodic labour force data
to be available sometime in early 2019.

We are cognizant of various stated and unstated limitations and challenges

this study is going to pose. However, as long as the bias is not systematic
and as long as it is not state or city specific, our estimates would still be a
reliable proxy measure for city GDP. This would remain a work in progress
and with more availability of data, it would require refinement and
improvement.

In the following section, we are producing a schema, which largely explains

our approach to estimate city GDP.

11. City GDP

Step 1: Obtain state-wise GSDP data

The starting point of the analysis would be to obtain State-wise GSDP data
with break-up by compilation category. The estimates for each of the
compilation category by organized/Un-organized or
Corporate/Unincorporated sectors have to be collected from the
respective state DES. The compilation category is a group of industrial
classifications based on National Industrial Classification (NIC). These
compilation categories are used by CSO and state DES while estimating
GDP. The detail list of compilation category is available in Annex 1. While
the data at aggregate level is available in public domain, the
disaggregated data as per compilation categories of CSO is not available
for the states in public. Such information shall be collected from respective
Page 6 of 18
 DES to be facilitated by MH&HA (henceforth Ministry). It is noted in the
recent releases of state government GSDP figures that – most of the states
have stopped reporting the break-up of Manufacturing GSDP data into
registered and un-registered category. Therefore, such data need to be
procured from the respective state level DES offices.

In this exercise, respective state government DES as well as CSO has to

participate as key stakeholders and help of Ministry would be required for
facilitation in terms of giving necessary letters and directions.

Step 2: Apportioning GSDP by Labour input method

The next step is to estimate the labour input (i.e., number of workers in each
sector) in each of the above sectors separately for rural-unorganized, rural-
organized, urban-unorganized and urban-organized in the State. Here, the
term labour input means the number of jobs in each compilation category
classified into organized and un-organized separately for rural and urban
areas.

Typically, NSSO in its quinquennial round conducts employment and

unemployment survey for the country. The latest round for which data is
available is 68th round (2011-12). It provides sector-wise employment data
for rural and urban areas. Using a suitable definition, we can distribute the
workers in a sector by organized and unorganized.

We presume that the organized and unorganized split of GSDP data to be

available from DES offices of respective state. Here again, the co-
operation and assistance of the respective DES is essential. We have to
again divide the organized and un-organized sector GSDP data into urban
and rural sectors as per compilation category (see the discussion in sub-
step 2).

We also assume and of course it is evidenced by many studies, that there

is productivity differential between organized an unorganized sector.
Typically, organized manufacturing and service firms are large in size,
experience scale economies, have better access to finance and have
better technology. All these factors drive productivity differentials. Hence,
it is important to segregate the GSDP into Organized and Unorganized and

Page 7 of 18
 then into Urban and Rural and subsequently to Organized-Urban and
Unorganized-Urban.

There are certain sub-steps we will follow to arrive at city GDP as discussed
below:

Sub-step 1 [Organized-Unorganized GSDP]: We will obtain the organized

and unorganized GSDP split from respective DES offices. In the eventuality,
it is not available, the next best alternative is to use some proxy
measures/indirect way to split it.

Again, we have to divide the data into rural and urban sectors. For this, we
have to take into account sector-wise employment share and productivity
differential between rural and urban areas.

Sub-step 2 [Division of GSDP between Urban and Rural Sectors]: Once we

have the organized and unorganized GSDP data at the state level by
compilation category, we need to split it into Rural and Urban GSDP.

We shall compute an index for rural-urban split by using labour input derived
from Employment-Unemployment Survey of 2011-12 and value added per
worker estimate from the survey of un-incorporated enterprise survey of
2010-11.2

Splitting into organized and unorganized sector:

We will take the worker size class criteria to split the industries into organized
and unorganized given in the unincorporated enterprise survey data set.
Enterprises having 10 and more workers shall be considered as organised
sector and enterprises having less than 10 workers shall be considered as
un-organised. It is assumed that the enterprises having more than ten
workers will have similar productivity levels as those of corporate sector. This
is confirmed by the exercises done by the erstwhile National Commission
for Enterprises in the Un-Organised sector (NCEUS).

Splitting it into rural and urban sector: Unincorporated enterprise survey of 2010-
11 (67th round of NSSO) data set also provides the break-up of rural and urban

2Unincorporated enterprise survey of 2010-11 (67th round of NSSO) covers manufacturing and
services excluding construction. In manufacturing, it covers non-ASI sector. It also has not
covered govt. sector in enterprise type.

Page 8 of 18
 sector. Therefore, enterprises in the organized and unorganized sector shall be
divided into rural and urban in each compilation category.

Calculating per worker GVA: GVA data is also available in the

unincorporated enterprise survey data set. We shall calculate the per
worker GVA for four segments – Rural organized, Rural unorganized, Urban
organized and urban unorganized.

Table 2: Per worker GVA coefficient from NSSO data

Urban Rural
Organized Per worker GVA for Per worker GVA for
Urban-Organized [UO] Rural-Organized [RO]
Unorganized Per worker GVA for Per worker GVA for
Urban-Unorganized Rural Unorganized [RU]
[UU]

The next step is to estimate the total value addition by each of the above
segments. It will be done by multiplying the average value added per
worker with the labour input (i.e., workforce). NSSO 68th round provides the
latest data on workers across sectors. We will multiply the coefficient that is
obtained in Table 2 with the sectoral employment figures of NSSO 68th round
for obtaining aggregate sectoral GVA across the four quadrants in each
compilation category.

Distribution of GSDP into four quadrants: In sub-step 1, we have mentioned

that GSDP data with organized and unorganized sector break-up shall be
procured from the state DES offices. Using the ratio given in Table 2, we shall
divide it into a. Rural organized; b. Rural unorganized; c. Urban organized
and d. Urban unorganized.

Therefore, the relevant output from sub-step 2 is: Urban GSDP by economic
activity for organized and unorganized sector.

[Note: In the process of calculation of per worker value added, we might

not get enough sample from NSS data for some industry group of the
compilation category used by CSO. So a new compilation category will be
prepared at the calculation stage by observing the sample size. A
probable list of compilation category is presented in Annex 2.

Also, the following industry groups were not covered by the NSSO survey on
Un-incorporated Non-agriculture Enterprises.

1. Crop production and allied activities

2. Mining and quarrying
3. Construction

We have to use some proxy indicators to divide it into a. Rural organized; b.

Rural unorganized; c. Urban organized and d. Urban unorganized. ]

Sub-step 3 [Urban workforce by sector]: Sub-step 2 will give us sectoral

urban GDP at the state level. In this step, we will arrive at sectoral per worker
GDP at the state level. There are two critical elements here: a. Aggregate
sectoral Urban GSDP; b. Sector-wise Urban workforce.
In sub-step 2, we have already obtained aggregate sectoral urban GSDP.
Now, how to find out sector-wise urban workforce? The task shall be simple
after obtaining the workforce, as we have to divide sectoral GSDP
(obtained sub-step 2) by sectoral workforce to arrive at a multiplier factor.
Let us call the multiplier as X. Once we know the X and we know city level
workforce (Z), multiplication of X and Z would give us sectoral GDP in a city
for a particular sector.
Let’s comeback to the question of finding out sector-wise Urban workforce.
NSS employment and unemployment survey provides workforce by sector
for the year 2011-12. We need to project it for the year 2017-18. It can be
done as follows:
1. Obtain the urban workforce participation rate (WPR) from NSSO 68th
round employment-unemployment survey data;
2. Project the urban population of the state for the year 2017-18;
3. Apply the WPR on the projected population to arrive at the workforce
for the year 2017-18;
4. Use the similar distribution of the workforce across the industry group as
given in the NSSO 68th round for 2017-18 projected workforce;

Page 10 of 18
 Sub-step 4 [City Workforce]: In the preceding step, we have calculated
state level workforce per sector for urban area. That is required to arrive at
per worker GDP for a sector in urban area, which would be used to arrive
at city GDP by multiplying it with city work force.
Now how to obtain city work force?
NSSO employment and unemployment survey data provides information
up to million plus cities. There is a separate stratum allocated to such cities.
Using the method discussed in sub-step 3, we can arrive at city workforce
for organized and unorganized sector separately for each industry group.
However, there is a challenge.
In NSSO data, one can get good representation of data up to region level.
Regions consists of sum of few districts in a state. Below region, the sample
size become very thin. Therefore, any projection with such a thin sample
poses challenge. For example – there are only 400 sample workers
distributed across various sectors in Hyderabad. As we know, NSSO is an All-
India survey therefore such coverage is not unusual.
Question now arises – how to augment this sample size? One plausible way
is to pool NSSO unit level data of centre sample and state sample. DES
collects state sample. However, such data is not made publicly available.
It has to be obtained from DES for which Ministry’s support would be
required. Once we have a pooled sample, that sample can be used to
obtain city workforce for the year 2011-12. Using city WPR and city
projected population of 2017-18, we will get the city workforce for 2017-18.
Sub-step 5 [Calculating per worker GSDP at State level]: In sub-step 2, we
have arrived at Urban GSDP by sector. In sub-step 3, we have arrived at
urban workforce of the state by the sector. Dividing urban GSDP of the
sector with urban workforce of the state by sector would give us per worker
GSDP at the State level.
Sub-step 6 [Calculating City GDP]: To arrive at City GDP, we need to
multiply the city workforce per sector (obtained in sub-step 4) with per
worker GDP for each sector at the state level obtained in sub-step.
Step 3: Bringing in spatial efficiency factor

We have discussed above that - Spatial differences in productivity due to

technology variations between different cities will not be captured through
the above method, even though the difference in lieu of city workforce

Page 11 of 18
and rural - urban sectors will be captured. To come over this challenge, we
may attempt an adjustment factor as discussed in the following
paragraphs.

Numerous factors affect productivity differentials between cities. It

depends upon cultural context, social and ethnographies, infrastructure
(physical and social), skill and type of workforce, type of enterprises (own
account enterprises and establishment), ownership of enterprises (state
owned or privately owned), industry group etc. There are many hard
factors (visible/measurable) and soft factors (difficult to measure like
cultural bias) that comes to the play. There is no way one can capture all
the factors. Even if for the time being we set aside the soft factors,
productivity differential due to nature of enterprise and physical and social
infrastructure need to be captured.

Productivity Differential Index as per nature of enterprise:

We are proposing to develop an index, which we can call as productivity

differential index (PDI). There is a risk of increasing its ambit by way of
incorporating too many variables and losing the differential power of the
index. Therefore, we will model PDI as follows in parsimonious manner:

𝑃𝐷𝐼 = 𝑓(𝐼𝑛𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑦 𝑡𝑦𝑝𝑒, 𝑂𝑤𝑛𝑒𝑟𝑠ℎ𝑖𝑝 𝑇𝑦𝑝𝑒, 𝐸𝑛𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑝𝑟𝑖𝑠𝑒 𝑇𝑦𝑝𝑒, 𝑆𝑖𝑧𝑒 𝑜𝑓 𝐼𝑛𝑑𝑢𝑠𝑡𝑟𝑦)

Step A: We will use all India data and calculate the Total factor productivity
(either by adopting index method or regression based method). Let us call
it Aggregate Efficiency Value (AEV). We will use only Labour and Capital as
input and GVA as output for Industry and services.

Step B: Then we will distribute AEV by elements of PDI. We will distribute the
PDI score across NIC 2 digit industries over Enterprises type, Ownership type
and by Size class. Each cell would provide an average value of AEV.

Essentially this would provide us distribution of efficiency score at all India

level. This matrix is essentially the productivity differential matrix and it
represents average characteristics of the industry in the country.

Step C: From Economic census, we will know the number of enterprises by

ownership type, enterprise type, and worker size as per NIC two digit

Page 12 of 18
classification per city. From step B, we would have obtained the PDI values
for each combination. We will apply that efficiency-augmenting factor to
the city GDP to take into account productivity differentials.

Productivity Differential Index as per infrastructure difference: Social

infrastructure like school, college, health facilities etc are critical human
capital augmenting factor. However, given the free flow of human capital
in the country, that is not a hard constraint for productivity augmentation.
For the time being, we can keep it aside. The factor that can be taken into
account is the available physical infrastructure like road, port, and
availability of electricity etc. We can collect that information and construct
an index to be applied to city GDP as a correction factor.

Critics may say infrastructure development is a function of city income so

there is an element endogeneity in our formulation. However, there are
enough infrastructure development happening which does not necessarily
depend upon the city income. This is a limited proposition to account for
city level productivity differential. Since as part of the pilot, we are taking
only one city per state, productivity adjustment may not be necessary for
the time being.
