“Sources and Methods for Compilation of National Accounts Statistics”

The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) has released the publication titled “Sources and Methods for Compilation of National Accounts Statistics”. This follows the introduction of the New Series of National Accounts Statistics with base year 2022-23 (replacing the 2011-12 base year), which was updated in August 2026. The publication provides a consolidated account of concepts, definitions, methodologies, and data sources adopted in the new series. It incorporates recommendations from the Advisory Committee on National Accounts Statistics (ACNAS) and its four sub-committees. Key updates include the modernization of estimation methodologies across corporate, financial, government, and household sectors, improvements in expenditure-side estimates, adoption of the Proportional Denton approach for quarterly national accounts, and the inclusion of Supply Use Tables and regional accounts guidelines.
