âStatistical thinking will one day be as necessary for efficient citizenship as the ability to read and writeâ 	
- H.G.Wells

1.1 Scope and Coverage	 	
1.1.1   The Annual Survey of Industries is the main source of industrial statistics in Kerala. 
From  ASI  2010	â11  onwards,  the  survey  is  being  conducted  under  the  Collection  of  Statistics 	
Act,  2008  and  Rules  framed  there  under  in  2011.The  Survey  is  designed  to  obtain 
comprehensive and detailed industrial data with the objective of estimating the contribution of 
registered  manufacturing  industries  as  a  whole  to  the  state  income.      It  gives  a  broad  view  of 
the structure of the industry in economy, various factors influencing industries in the state etc. 
which form the bases for formulation of industrial policies. 
 
1.1.2      Coverage  of  the  Annual  Survey  of  Industries  extends  to  the  entire  Factory  Sector 
comprising industrial units (called factories) registered under the Sections 2(m)(i) and 2(m)(ii) 
of  the  Factories  Act,  1948,  wherein  a  âFactoryâ,  which  is  the  primary  statistical  unit  of 
enumeration for the ASI, is defined as: 	
 	
âAny premisesâ including the precincts thereof: 	â 	
(i)	 Wherein  ten  or  more  workers  are  working  or  were  working  on  any  day  of 	
the  preceding  twelve  months,  and  in  any  part  of  which  a  manufacturing  process  is 
being carried on with the aid of power or is ordinarily so carried on, or,  	
(ii)	 Wherein twenty or more workers are working or were working on any day 	
of  the  preceding  twelve  months,  and  in  any part  of  which  a  manufacturing  process 
is being carried on without the aid of power or is ordinarily so carried on, but does 
not  include  a  mine  subject  to  the  operation  of  the  Mines  Act,  1952,  or  a  railway 
running shed.

10 	
 
 	
The  âmanufacturing  processâ  referred  to  above  has  been  defined  [vide  Section 
2(k)]  
in the Factories Act, 1948 as: 
âAny processâ for: 
 	
(i)	 	making,  altering,  ornamenting,  finishing,  packing,  oiling,  washing, 
cleaning,  breaking  up,  demolishing  or  otherwise  treating  or  adapting 
any  article  or  substance with  a  view  to  its  use,  sale,  transport,  delivery 
or disposal; or, 	
 	
(ii)	 pumping oil, water or sewage ; or,  	
 	
(iii)	 generating , transforming or transmitting power; or,  	
 	
(iv)	 composing  types  for  printing  by  letter  press,  lithography,  photogravure 
or other similar process or book binding; or,  	
 	
(v)	 constructing,  reconstructing,  repairing,  refitting,  finishing  or  breaking 
up ships or vessels; or,  	
 	
(vi)	 preserving or storing any article in cold storage.  	
 
1.1.3  In addition to Sections 2(m)(i) & 2(m)(ii) of the Factories Act, 1948, bidi& cigar units, 
employing 10 or more workers with the aid of power and 20 or more workers without the aid 
of  power  and  registered  under  the  Bidi&  Cigar  Workers  (Conditions  of  Employment)  Act, 
1966 ,  all the electricity undertakings engaged in generation, transmission and distribution of 
electricity, not  registered with the Central Electricity Authority(CEA),are also covered under 
ASI. 
 
1.1.4    Starting from ASI 2014-15, the coverage of ASI has been extended beyond the 
Section  2m(i)  and  2m(ii)  of  the  Factories  Act,  1948.    To  start  with,  the  units  with  100  or

11 	
 
more  employees,  not  registered  under  Section  2m(i)  and  2m(ii)  of  the  Factories  Act,  1948 
but    registered  under  any  of  the  seven  Acts/Board/Authority  viz.,  Companies  Act  1956, 
Factories Act, 1948,  Shops and Commercial Establishment Act, Societies Registration Act, 
Cooperative  Societies  Act,  Khadi  and  Village  Industries  Board,  Directorate  of  Industries 
(District Industries Centre) in the Business Register of Establishments (BRE) as prepared by 
the  State  Government  and  available  with  National  Accounts  Division,  Central  Statistics 
Office  and  verified  by  Field  Operations  Division  (FOD),  NSSO  are  also  considered  for 
selection.   
 
1.1.5    Although  the  scope  of  the  ASI  was  extended  to  all  registered  manufacturing 
establishments  in  the  country,  defence  establishments,  oil  storage  and  distribution  depots, 
restaurants,  hotels,  cafe  and  computer  services,  departmental  units  such  as  railway 
workshops,  RTC  workshops,  Govt.  Mints,  sanitary,  water supply,  gas  storage  units  etc.  are 
excluded from the purview of the Survey.  
 
1.2. Unit of Enumeration 
 
1.2.1  The  primary  unit  of  enumeration  in  the  survey  is  a  factory  in  the  case  of 
manufacturing  industries,  a  workshop  in  the  case  of  repair  services,  an  undertaking  or  a 
licensee in the case of electricity, gas and water supply undertakings and an establishment in 
the  case  of  Bidi  and  Cigar  industries.  The  owner  of  two  or  more  establishments  located  in 
the  same  state  and  pertaining  to  the  same  industry  group,  is  permitted  to  furnish  a  single 
consolidated  return,  termed  as  âJoint  Returnâ.    Such  consolidated  returns  are  a  common 
feature in case of some of the factories in ASI. 
 
1.3 ASI Frame	 	
 	
1.3.1   The ASI frame is based on the lists of registered factories / units maintained by 
the  Chief  Inspector  of  Factories  (CIF)  in  the  State  and  those  maintained  by  registration 
authorities  in  respect  of  Bidi  and  Cigar  establishments  and  electricity  undertakings.  The 
frame  is  being  revised  and  updated  periodically  by  the  Regional  Offices  of  the  Field 
Operations Division (FOD) of NSSO in consultation with the Chief Inspector of Factories in

12 	
 	
each  State.  At  the  time  of  revision,  the  names  of  the  de	âregistered  factories  are  removed 	
from  the  ASI  frame  and  those  of  the  newly  registered  factories  are  added.  While  updating 
the  frame,  only  newly  registered  units  are  added  to  the  existing  frame.  In  spite  of  regular 
updating of the frame, quite a number of factories selected for the survey are getting deleted 
during  the  survey  owning  to  various  reasons  like  non-existence,  de-registration,  out  of 
coverage etc. 	
 	
1.3.2    It  is  to  be  noted  that  apart  from  the  factories  in  operation,  the  ASI  frame 
comprises  factories  which  are  categorised  as  âExisting  with  fixed  assets  and  maintaining 
staff  but  not  having  productionâ  and  âExisting  with  fixed  assets  but  not    maintaining  staff 
and not having productionâ. 
 	
 1.4. Reference Period 
 	
 
1.5 Methodology of the survey  
 
1.5.1   	 In the state the survey is conducted as per the guidelines of Industrial Statistics Wing 	
(IS wing) of Central Statistics Office	.  	The following methodology is adopted by the IS wing 	
for the survey.   
 	
 1.6 Sample Design and Sample Allocation 	
 	
1.4.1   Reference  period  for  ASI  201	7â201	8  was  the  accounting  year  of  the  factory, 
ending  on  any  day  during  the  financial  year  201
7â 201	8.  Thus  in  ASI  201	7â 201	8,  data 
collected  from  establishments  relate  to  their  respective  accounting  years  that  ended  on  any 	
day  between  1 st
  April  2017  and  31 st
  March  2018.  Survey  was  conducted  in  the  state in  the 
time period 1 st
 January 2019 to 31 st
 May 2019. 
1.6.1   As  per  sampling  design  adopted  in  ASI  201	7-18,  ASI  sample  comprises  two  parts  - 
Central  Sample  and  State  Sample.  The  Central  Sample  consists  of  two  schemes:  Census  and 
Sample. Under Census scheme, all the units are surveyed. 
1.6.2 Census scheme :

a)	 	All industrial units belonging to the seven less industrially developed states/ 
UTâs  viz.  Arunachal  Pradesh,  Manipur,  Meghalaya,  Nagaland,  Sikkim, 
Tripura and Andaman & Nicobar Islands.  	
b)	 	For the States/ UTs other than those mentioned in (a) 	
(i)	 	Units having 75 or more employees from Kerala, and 	
(ii)	 	All  units  covered  under  âJoint  Returnâ  (JR),  where  JR  is  allowed  when 
the two or more units located in the same State/UT belonging to the same 
industry (3-digit level of NIC) under the same management. 	
c)	 	After  excluding  the  Census  Sector  units,  as  defined  in  paragraphs  a)  and  b) 
above, the strata are formed at 	State x District  x Sector x 3digit NIC	â2008 	
level.   	Here,  âsectorâ  is  very  broad  economic  activity  group  consisting  of 	
manufacturing,  electricity  generation  activity  and  bidi  producing  activity.  
Thus,  in  short,  sectors  are  (i)  Bidi,  (ii)  Manufacturing  and  (iii)  Electricity.  
All units belonging to the strata (i.e., formed on the basis of units in State by 
District by Sector by 3-digit of NIC-08) having less than or equal to 4 units 
are completely enumerated and are thus considered as âcensus sectorâ units 	
d)	 	Sample Scheme	: 	
All  the  remaining  units  in  the  frame  are  considered  under 	Sample  Scheme	. 	
For all the states, 	strata are formed for each State x District x Sector x 3	â	
digit  NIC	â2008  factories	.  The  units  in  each  stratum  are  arranged  in 	
descending  order  of  their  number  of  employees.  Samples  are  drawn  as  per 
Circular  Systematic  Sampling  technique.  An  even  number  of  units  with  a 
minimum of 4 units are selected and distributed in four sub	âsamples. It may 	
be  noted  that  all  the  4  sub	âsamples  from  a  particular  stratum  may  not  have 	
equal number of units. 	
e)	 	    Out  of  these  4  sub	âsamples,  two  pre	âassigned  sub	âsamples  are  given  to 	
NSSO  (FOD)  and  the  other  two	âsub  samples  are  given  to  State/UT  for  data 	
collection.  	
f)	 	The  entire  census  units 	plus	  all  the  units  belonging  to  the  two  sub	âsamples 	
given to NSSO (FOD) are treated as the 	Central Sample.	 	
g)	 	The units belonging to the two sub	âsamples allocated to State/UTs are to be 	
canvassed by the respective States/UTs. Hence, State/UT has to use the data

14 	
 	
collected  by  NSSO  (FOD)  and  processed  by  IS  Wing,  DPD,  and  NSSO 
along  with  the  state  sample  data  while  deriving  the  district  level  estimates 
for their respective State/UT. 	
h)	 	The  entire  census  scheme  units  plus  all  the  units  belonging  to  the  two  sub-
samples  given  to  NSSO  (FOD)  plus  all  the  units  belonging  to  the  two  sub-
samples  given  to  State  /  UT  are  required  for  pooling  of  Central  and  State 
Samples. 	
 	
1.7. Estimation Procedure 
 
1.7.1         The procedures for estimation of the characteristics are shown in Annexure-2. 
 
1.7.2   The  results  presented  in  the  publication  are  based  on  the unit  level  data  of central  and 
state  samples.  The  estimated  value  figures  given  in  this  publication  are  reported  in  current 
prices.  The  value  figures  are  generally  rounded  off  to  lakhs  of  rupees.  All  Kerala  figures  are 
rounded  off  separately  and  may  not  tally  with  the  sum  of  district  figures.  Similarly,  all	â	
Industry  figures  may  not  tally  with  the  sum  of  individual  industry  figures.  Also  the  industry	â	
wise totals at lower level may not tally with the next higher level due to merging of industries 
carried out at different levels	. 	
 
1.8.  Schedule of Enquiry 
 	 	
          1.8.1   The  schedule  for  ASI  2017-18 aims  to  collect  data  on  assets  and 	
liabilities, 	
employment  and  labour  cost,  receipts,    expenses,	
  input  items  -  indigenous  and  imported, 	
products and by	âproducts, distributive expenses etc. 	
           A  copy  of  the  ASI  2017-18  schedule  is  given  as  Annexure-3.    The  different  concepts 
and definitions used in ASI survey are given in Annexure-4. 
 
1.9. Classification of Industries	 	
 
  1.9.1  From  ASI  2008	â09,  NIC	â  2008  has  been  the  base  of  industry  classification.  It 	
classifies all the factories in the ASI frame in their appropriate industry groups on the basis of

15 	
 	
****************************************************** 	
 
 	
the  principal  product  manufactured.  This  way  a  unit  gets  classified  in  one  and  only  one 
industry  group  even  though  it  might  be  manufacturing  products  belonging  to  different 
industries. The estimates for different aggregates  presented in this report at  two or three digit 
level of industry correspond to the NICâ2008 classification. 
 
1.10.   Publications and Limitations 
1.10.1    The results of ASI 201	
7-1	8 are released at 2-digit/3-digit level of NIC-2008 for 
the  State.  The  list  of  2/3-digit  level  of  NIC-2008  codes  along  with  descriptions  is  given  in 
Annexure  5.  This  report  contains  tables  related  to  capitals  and  value  added,  employment  and 
labour cost, fuels consumed etc. 
 
1.10.2    The  Collection  of  Statistics  Act  prohibits  disclosure  of  data  relating  to 
individual  factories.  Therefore,  if  the  number  of  factories  under  any  industry  (2 âdigit/3 âdigit 
level  of  NIC â2008)  in  the  state  is  less  than  three,  the  data  have  been  combined  to  a  similar 
industry in order to conceal the identity of all such units belonging to the concerned stratum. 
 
1.10.3    All  the  estimates,  especially  for  quantity  and  value  figures  for  any  particular 
item  consumed  and  produced,  are  subject  to  Statistical  Error  as  these  are  estimated  on  the 
basis of a selected Sample. The consumptions and productions are not estimated separately for 
those  items  for  which  the  number  of  observations  is  insufficient.  They  have  been  reported 
under 'others' as the estimates for those items may not be efficient.. 
 
1.10.4    As  per  tabulation  policy  it  has  been  decided  to  report  the  detailed  information 
corresponding  to  industry  codes  10  to  33  and  58  following  NIC â2008.  For  all  other  industry 
codes,  the  units  have  been  clubbed  and  shown  under  a  common  industry  ' Other'  in  different 
tables.

CHAPTER 2 
 
State wide outlook of the industrial 
statistics.

nnual Survey of Industries is one 
of  the  major  source  of  industrial 
statistics  in  Kerala.    Framing  of 	
industrial  policies  for  resolving  the 
challenges  faced  by  the  sector  and  thereby 
aiming a balanced economy is of paramount 
importance.  It is at this juncture that surveys 
play  a  significant  role.    A  pertinent  and 
accurate  data  put  into  analysis  can  come  up 
with  most  efficient  results  which  serve  the 
policy  makers  to  devise  new  strategies  that 
are capable of achieving the objective.   
Attempts  have  been  made  in  this  section  to 
bring  forth  the  status  of  manufacturing 
industries  in  the  state.    The  principle 
characteristics  of  organised  manufacturing 
sector  for  the  financial  year  2017-18  was 	
estimated by combining  Central sample and 
State sample.    	
Factories in organised/ registered 
manufacturing sector of Kerala 	
Registered  industries  involved  in  the 
production  of  goods  define  the  organised 
manufacturing  sector  of  the  state.    Annual 
survey  of  industries  2017-18  estimated  7596 
factories in the manufacturing sector of Kerala.  
Out of the total, 6538 factories are in operation 
and  1058  are  not  in  operation.    The  factories 
not in operation accounts to about 13.9% of the 
total  figure.    Estimated  figures  show  a  slight 
decline  of  about  4.8%  in  the  number  of 
factories compared to previous financial year.

Figure 1  	
Significant characteristics of 	
organised manufacturing sector of 	
Kerala 	
Analysis  of  financial  statements  is  an 
essential aid in the formulation of effective 
industrial  policies.    Annual  survey  of 
Industries  serve  this  purpose  to  a  great 
extent.    The  organised  manufacturing 
sector  depicts  one  facet  of  the  industrial 
sector.  The  financial  statements  of  the 
factories in this sector viz., Profit and loss 
account,  balance  sheet  and  employment 
details provide a framework within which 	
economic  status  of  the  sector  can  be 
analysed and further planning can be done 
for  better  development.  These  statements 
form the source of data of the survey.  The 
survey  estimates  27  major  characteristics 
of the industrial sector.   
The  major  characteristics  comprises  
number  of  factories,  capital  of  the 
industries,  total  input,  total  output,  Gross 
Value Added (GVA), Gross Fixed Capital 
Formation  (GFCF),  net  income,  profit 
etc...    The  survey  also  estimates  the 
employment details of the worker engaged 
in  the  factories  of  the  manufacturing 
sector.

Employment and emoluments paid in 	
the manufacturing industries 	
The  amount  of  labour  utilized  by  the 
manufacturing  industries  is  a 
significant  factor  in  the  process  of 
production.    The  man-days  employed 
or  number  of  hours  worked  is 	
imperative  in  assessing  the  change  in 
productivity.   
The  survey  estimates  some  significant 
figures  related  to  employment  such  as 
number  of  persons  engaged,  wages  or 
salaries paid etc. The figures show that 
3,  24,773  persons  are  engaged  in  the 
factories of   organised   manufacturing

sector  in  the  state.  Out  of  these 
employees, 78.9% are workers, 20.6% 
are  employees  other  than  workers  and   
0.5%  unpaid  family  members/ 
proprietor.    The  estimated  total  man-
days  employed  in  the  factories  is 
92,496  (in  thousands).    The  estimated 	
wages and salaries   including bonus of 
the  employees  is 	7,71,302  lakhs 	
whereas  employerâs  contribution  is        
 1, 44,144 lakhs.

egional  and  geographical 
disparities  of  various 
districts  of  the  state  may 	
reflect  in  their  industrial  statistics. 
Sustainable  developmental  strategies 
conducive  for  progress  in  this  sector 
with  due  consideration  of  the 
geographical  features  demands  a  grass 
root  level  planning.  Surveys  and 
studies  in  this  level  make  way  for 
decentralised  planning  which  is 
imperative  for  industrial  development.  
This  section  presents  a  vivid  picture  of 
the  manufacturing  sector  in  the  14 
districts  of  Kerala.    The  findings  of  the 
survey  play  a  significant  role  in 
identifying  the  areas  that  needs  to  be 
prioritized for better development. 	
Ernakulam  district  tops  with 	
1467  factories  which  accounts  to  about 
19%  of  the  total  number  of  estimated 
factories  in  Kerala.    The  least  is 	
recorded  by  Wyanad  district  with  an

Out  of  the  14  districts  in  Kerala 
Ernakulam  district  tops  with  an  estimate 
of 1467 factories (19.31% of state value).  
The  second  highest  is  recorded  by 
Kollam  district  with  an  estimate  of  1103 
factories. Ernakulam district continues to 
record  highest  percentage  of  factories 	
over a period of at least 7 years.  Wyanad 
district  has  the  least  number  of  factories 
with  an  estimate  of  63  (approximately 
1% of state value).  Thrissur district with 
852  factories  stands  in  the  third  position 
(11.22  %  of  state  value)  (	see  Table3	).

Capital of manufacturing sector 	
The  capital  invested  in  a  manufacturing 
firm  is  one  of  the  factors  that  create 
value  addition  in  the  product.      Fixed 
capital represents the fixed assets owned 
by  the  factory  such  as  land,  building, 
plant  &  machinery,  transport  equipment 
and  other  equipments  whereas  working 
capital  is  the  capital  which  forms  the 
part  of  the  day-  to-day  activities  of 
production.    The  fixed  capital  and 
physical working capital sum up to form 
the invested capital of the industry.   	
As  per  survey  results,  manufacturing 
industries  of  Ernakulam  district  has  the 
highest  invested  capital,  fixed  capital 
and  physical  working  with  an  estimate 
of     	40,  20,422  lakhs  (64.89%), 	29, 	
82,597  lakhs  (68.26%)  and 	10,  37,825 	
lakhs  (56.85%)  respectively.   	    Whereas 	
Wayanad  district  has  the  least  invested 
and physical working capital of 	17,745 	
lakhs  and 	  5,457  lakhs  respectively 	
(0.28%  and  0.29%  of  state  value)  and

Input and Output 	
Any  policy  which  aims  for  a  potential 
use  of  available  resources  leading  to 
increased  output  is  expected  to  achieve 
the  desired  goal.  Attempts  have  been 
made to estimate the input and output of 
the manufacturing sector.   	
The  input  of  the  production  process 
includes  value  of  fuels  consumed, 
materials  consumed  for  manufacturing 
and  other  expenses.    Gross  output  is 
defined  to  include  the  ex-factory  value 
of  products  and  by-products 
manufactured  during  the  accounting 
year,  and  the  net  value  of  semi-finished 
goods  or  work-in-progress  and  also  the

Gross Value Added (GVA) 	
The  value  added  by  each  industry  is  a 
significant  measure  of  contribution  in 
the GDP of the state. Gross value added 
is  the  increment  to  the  value  of  goods 
and  services  contributed  by  the  factory 	
which  is  obtained  by  deducting  the 
value  of  total  input  from  total  output.  
As  per  the  survey  estimates  the  highest 
contribution  of  51.3  %  of  state  GVA  is 
made  by  manufacturing  sector  of 
Ernakulam  district.    The  percentage 
contribution  of  remaining  districts  lies 
in  the  range  0  to  10.  (	See  Table  8)	.

ational  Industrial  Classification 
(NIC),  2008  is  a  Statistical 
Standard  used  to  categorize  the 	
industries  based  on  the  economic  activity 
involved  and  to  facilitate  comparison.  NIC 
code  is  given  as  per  maximum  ex-factory 
value  of  major  product  out  of  the  multiple 
products  and  the  by-products  manufactured 
by  the  units.    Itâs  a  standard  industrial 
classification  system  developed  to  facilitate 
a basis for analysing myriad industries based 
on  economic  activity  involved  and  for 
comparability  with  International  Standards.  
An  attempt  has  been  made  in  this  survey  to 
bring  forth  the  industrial  statistics  based  on 
NIC categorization.  Itâs an aid for the policy 
makers  for  assessing  the  contribution  of 
each  economic  activity  towards  the  stateâs 	
economy  and  to  formulate  policies  for  the 
progress of the sector. 
Manufacturing industries by 2-digit 	
NIC, 2008 	
In  the  organised  manufacturing  sector  of 
Kerala,  the  highest  of  about  21.4%  factories

nalysing and tracking the annual 
trend  in  the  industrial  statistics 
over a period of time is essential  	
for  the  promotion  of  manufacturing  sector.  
Surveys  play  a  significant  role  in 
unravelling  the  rationale  behind  the 
fluctuations  in  the  statistics  and  serve  as  an 	
aid  for  prediction  and  setting 
developmental strategy for further progress. 
Attempts  have  been  made  in  this  section  to 
bring  forth  the  annual  trends  in  some 
significant  characteristics  of  manufacturing 
sector from 2011-12 to 2017-18.

The  survey  results  show  increase  in  the 
estimated  number  of  factories  over  the 
period  2011-12  to  2016-17  while  the 
number  decreased  by  386  in  2017-18 
when compared to the previous year (	see 	
Figure  23	).    The  fixed  capital  and 	
invested  capital  shows  an  increasing 
trend  from  2011-12  to  2016-17  but  the 
year  2017-18  records  a  drop  in  these 
capitals (	refer Figure 24	).

The  growth  rate  of  some 
characteristics  were  analysed  during 
two successive financial years 2016-17 
and  2017-18.    The  figures  show 
negative  growth  rates  in  number  of 
factories,  fixed  capital,  invested 
capital,  GVA,  GFCF,  net  income  and 
profit. The number of factories decline 
by  4.84%. 	    The  fixed  capital  and 	
invested  capital  shows  a  negative 
growth rate of -8.68 % and  -5.38 % 	
respectively.	  The  Gross  Value  Added 	
(GVA)  of  production  declined  by 
0.82%  in  2017-18.    Figures  reveal  a 
huge  negative  growth  rate  of  57.96% 
of  GFCF  in  2017-18.    Apart  from  this 
estimates  show  a  growth  rate  of 
18.87%  in  output  and  22.44%  in 
output  of  the  manufacturing  sector. 
The  net  income  and  profit  dropped  by 
3.45% and 15.39 % respectively.

Analysing  the  magnitude  of 
employment, wage trends and gender 
based  participation  of  the  workers  is 
imperative  for  renewing  the 
employment  structure,  evolving  new 
wage  policies  and  ensuring  gender 
equality  in  manufacturing  sector.    In 
seven  consecutive  years  the  least 	
no.of  workers  is  recorded  in  the  year 
2017-18.  While a narrow increase in 
employees  other  than  workers  is 
observed  in  2017-18  compared  to 
previous  year.  The  number  of

CHAPTER 6 
 
Overview  of  principal  characteristics  of  
manufacturing sector in the rural and urban areas

ocation of industries is one of the 
significant  factors  which  may 
have  favorable  and  adverse 	
impact  on  the  industrial  sector.    Field 
surveys  covering  different  types  of 
industries in rural and urban areas may shed 
light  on  the  need  for  an  industrial  policy 
that enhance the development of the sector 
in the backward areas. Attempts have been 
made  to  bring  forth  the  principal 	
characteristics  of  the  manufacturing  sector 
in rural and urban areas of the state.  

47% of industries are in urban area and 53% 

show  that  Ernakulam  with  highest  number 
of factories has 58% in rural area and 42% 
in urban area.    The district wise estimates 
of factories is illustrated in 	Table 25	.

(a)
 The  entire  census  units  (i.e.  which  are  completely  enumerated,  say,  c)  of  a  State/UT 
plus  all  the  units  from  sub-sample  1(say,  n
1)  and  sub-sample  3(say,  n
3)  in  each
 
sample  stratum  of  the  State/UT,  for  which  data  is  collected  by  NSSO  (FOD)  and 
processed by IS WING, DPD, are treated as the  Central Sample for that State/UT.  
  (b) The  entire  census  units  of  a  State/UT  plus  all  the  units  from  sub-sample  2(say,  n2) 
and sub-sample 4 (say, n4) in  each sample stratum  of the State/UT, for which data is 
collected and processed by State/UT, are treated as the  State Sample. 
  (c) The  entire  census  units  of  a  State/UT  plus  all  the  units  under  the  4  sub-samples 
belonging to the State/UT are treated as the  Pooled Sample for that State/UT.  
 
For Census units : 
 
Step 1:  The multiplier for all the census units(say, c) are 1. 
 
For Sample units (i.e. which are surveyed through different sub-samples) : 
 
Step  2 :  For  the  purpose  of  calculation  of  multipliers  of  the  remaining  sample  units  (n
1+n
2+n
3+n
4)
 
belonging to 4 sub-samples, strata may be formed on the basis of  District x Sector x 3-digit 
Frame NIC. 
 
Step  3 :  Check  the  sub-sample  codes  (1/2/3/4),  provided  by  IS  WING,  DPD,  for  each  of  the  
(n 1+n
2+n
3+n
4) sample units (i.e. each unit will have one of the sub-sample codes 1,2,3 or 4). 
 
Step 4 : Get the frame size(for the sample sector), say N, for each of these sample strata, from the  
column âcap_nâ in the excel file named  â <statename>1516.xlsâ , provided by  IS WING, DPD in 
the CD . 
 
Step 5 : Calculate sub-sample wise multiplier in each sample stratum of ith district (say, m
ijk) m
ijk 
 
=  (N/n
ijk*)  ,  where  n
ijk*  ,  the  no.  of  sample  units  in  the  kth  sub-sample  of  jth  stratum  of  ith 
district,  to  be  obtained  for  each  sub-sample  by  counting  the  number  of  sample  units  with  status 
code (given in Block A item 12) 1,2,3,4,6,9. In this context, the treatment of different status code 
is as follows: 
�
 
 
  Working steps for Pooling of ASI data for ASI 
2017-18 
 
Pooling of central and state level ASI data for publishing district level estimates is an important 
activity that need to be performed by each State/UT. Following guidelines provide mechanism 
for pooling of state and central data at district level in ASI 
2017-18. 
 
As per ASI sampling design, adopted in ASI 201
7-1 8:

If A12=1,2,3 then the unit is treated as âSurveyed caseâ  
 
If A12=4,6,9 then the unit is treated as âZero caseâ  
 
If A12=5,7,8 then the unit is treated as âNon -responseâ  
  Note that 
 
a) A closed unit may be given status code as â2â (closed) if the closed factory has at least  
 
A,B,C and E block. 
 
b) An NOP unit may be given status  code as â3â (NOP) if the NOP factory  has at  least  A,B 
and C block. 
 
c) Non-response  units  (i.e.  units  with  status  code  5,7,8  in  current  year)  may  be  searched  in 
last year for imputation. If available as open unit(i.e. with status code 1) in last year , then 
all the blocks may be borrowed from last year and in that case the unit may be treated as 
surveyed unit. 
 
Only surveyed and zero cases are taken for calculating multiplier. That is, n ijk*, for each sub-
sample, will count only the surveyed and zero cases of that sub-sample. 
 
Step  6 :  The  unit  wise  data  for  estimating  the  parameters  for  c  census  units  and  (n
1+n
3)  sample
 
units  pertaining  to  central  sample  will  be  provided  by  IS  WING,  DPD.  The  individual  State/UT 
need  to  determine  the  unit  wise  parameters  for  (n 2+n
4)  sample  units  using  the  data  collected  by 
them  (on  the  basis  of  state  sample).  In  all  cases  the  parameters  are  to  be  calculated  as  per  the 
tabulation programme given. 
 
Step 7 : Let y
ilc
 = observed value of parameter y from  l-th census unit in i-th district. (To be 
 
calculated from the data supplied by IS WING, DPD.  
is  the observed value of parameter y from 
lth
 sample unit belonging to k th
 sub-sample of j th
 
 
stratum of ith district. Here,           values for k=1 and 3 (i.e., sub-sample 1 and 3) are to be 
 
 
c alculated from the data supplied by IS WING, DPDand for k=2 and 4 ((i.e., sub-sample 2 and 4) 
are to be calculated from the data collected by the State/UT following instruction manual. 
  Step 8 :   Pooled stratum level estimator  
 
Pooled   estimator  for  j - th  stratum  of  the  ith  district  from  k - th  sub - sample(say,   )=  
  ,  k=1,2,3,4  
 
where   is the multiplier of k - th sub - sample in j - th stratum of ith district (obtained as per step  
5).          
Next, 
pooled estimator of parameter y for j- th stratum of ith district (say, S
ij) =   
  ,
 
   
 
where n (â¤ 4) is number of non
-void subsamples in j-th stratum. While calculating the pooled

estimates, please keep in mind the value of ânâ. The value of ânâ will be decided on the basis of 
non
-void sub-samples. 
Pooled estimator of variance of the parameter y for j-th  stratum of ith district (say,V
ij)=
 
 
 
  where,    
=   (Note that, S	ij =   
)              
 
             
               
Step 9 :   Pooled District level estimator              
Pooled estimator of parameter y for i - th district  (say, T
i ) =  	
S    +   y c  	. The 1	st  part i.e.,	 
              ij     il     
              j

AII.4.6  Multipliers for enterprises : 
  
        The formulae for multipliers for a stratum are given below: 
  
 
AII.4.7.2    Imputation  of  data  from past  survey  for casua lty  units:  In  case  any un its  in the 
census  sector becom es  casualty, infor mation  in respect o f  all the ch aracteristics  may  be 
borrowed  from  the previous year, if   available,   for the census sector units belonging to that 
post-survey stratum of State By District By 4- Digit of NIC. Sometimes, this is a lso followed 
in  case of sam ple  units which are casualty but   information  on various characteristics for 
previous year of those units is available. 
 
AII.4.7.3  While counting the number of units surveyed ( e	
ism	)  in the m -th  sub-sample of   a 
stratum,  all the units with su rvey  codes 1 to 9 in Item  12,  Block A excluding the casualty 
cases will be considered.   
 
   
 
AII.4.7 
Treatment for surveyed cases and casualty cases : 
 
AII.4.7.1  Casualty cases : The casualty case may occur in cases where the unit is existing but 
non-response  due to closure and ow ner/occupier  is  not traceable (code  5), non-response due 
to  production  not yet started or acco un ting  year not closed d uring  the y ear (code  7) or non-
response  due to other reasons [ incl.  relevant  records are with court/Incom e  tax or 
recalcitrant/refuse  to subm it  the return depa rtment,  etc, or factory under prosecution in 
respect of earlier ASI] (code 8). Thus, the units  with survey codes 5, 7 and 8 as per Item  12, 
Block A are treated as casualties.  Moreover, if  for the units that are found âclosedâ or âNOPâ, 
the  relevant  information  are  not ava ilable,  thos e  will be tr eated  as  casualty  in coun ting  the 
number of surveyed units ( e	
ism	).   
AII.4.8   Treatment in cases of void strata 
 
AII.4.8.1    A stratum   may  be void because of th e  casualty  of all the units belong ing  to the  
  	
Annual Survey of Industries

sample,  then  estimate  for  the  void  stratum  may  be r eplaced  with the   estimate  as  obtained 
from  the other sub- sample  for  the  same  stratum  separately for central and s tate.  All th e 
various cases are discussed below: 
 
 
Case (I): Sample sector is voi d, but Census sector is not void :  
The  estimated  figures in respect of all the ch aracteristics  obtained  for  the census s ector 
may be assumed to hold good for each of the un its in the sample sector and accord ingly, 
the  estimate  for the sam ple  sector may be obtai ned.   For example, if there are n units in 
the  sample  sector in a p articular  stratum,  th en  the estim ated  figure per census units (i.e., 
average  figures)  for  a ch aracteristic  will be   multiplied  by n   to obtain th e  estimate  for  the  
sample sector in that stratum. 
 
Case (II): Both the Sample sector and Census sector are void :  
The stratum may be merged with the nearest  stratum looking into the description of the 4-
digit NIC activity, or else it could be m erged  with the 4-digit NIC activity âothers â within 
that 4-digit NIC group. 
 
 
   
 
 
 
 
AII.4.8.2      When  a  stratum  is  void  in  the  sub-
samples  1  and  3,  the  following  procedure  is 
recommended: 
AII.4.8.3    The treatm ent will be  similar if the stratum is void  in the sub-samples 2 and 4 to 
generate  estimate  from the state sample. If only  one  sub-sample (out of sub-sam ple  2 and 4) 
is void, then estimate for the void stratum may be  replaced with the estimate as obtained from 
the  other sub-sam ple  for the sam e  stratum  as  is  mentioned  in earlier paragraph. It m ay  be 
possible that in a particular stratum, sub-samp les 1 and 3 are void but sub-samples 2 and 4 are 
not void or conversely sub-sam ples 1 and 3 are  not void but sub-samples 2 and 4 are void. In 
the  former  case  merging  of stratum m ay  be required in generating central sam ple  estimates 
while that is not required in generating estim ates  from state sample. In the later case m erging 
of  stratum  is required in generating state sam p le  estimate  while m erging  is not re quired  in 
generating  estimates  from  central sam ple.  In   such cases for generating pooled estim ate, 
merging  is also not required.  The  stratum  merging  in gen era ting  pooled estim ate  is required 
only when all the four sub-sam p les in a s tratum are void. The same merging principle, which 
is mentioned in earlier paragraph, is to be followed in such cases.

Concepts, Definitions and Procedures
  
 
Important concepts and definitions used in ASI are explained below. 
 
1.
   A  number  of  accounting,  economic  and  other  terms  related  to  the  factories  are  used  in 
conduct  of  Annual  Survey  of  Industries.  For  proper  assessment  and  interpretation  of  ASI  data , 
those are given below.        
6.
     Manufacturing  Process:  This  is  as  per  Section  2(k)  of  the  Factories  Act,  1948,  and 
briefly mentioned in Section 1.   
7.
     Gross Value of Plant and Machinery:  Gross value of plant and machinery represents 
the  total  original  (un-depreciated)  value  of  installed  plant  and  machinery  as  at  the  end  of  the 
accounting year. It includes the book value of own constructed plant and machinery, if installed, 
and  the  approximate  value  of  rented-in  plant  and  machinery  as  at  the  time  of  renting  in  but 
excludes the value of rented-out plant and machinery. Total value of all the plant and machinery 
acquired  on  hire-purchase  basis  is  also  included.  Thus  it  represents  the  gross  value  of  plant  and 
machinery engaged in production process.    Annexure-

2.     Accounting Year:  For the purpose of ASI, the accounting year is the period on which 
the factory closes its books of account. With the enactment of Income Tax Act, by and large, the 
accounting year of all factories is from April to March. 
 
3.     Reference  Period:  It  is  corresponds  to  the  financial  year.  For  example,  for  ASI  201 7-

May �Ã®Ã¬Ã9X�
 
5.      Factory  (a s per  the  Factory  Act  1948):  Factory  is  one,  which  is  registered  under 
Sections  2m(i)  and  2m(ii)  of  the  Factories  Act,  1948.  The  Sections  2m(i)  and  2m(ii)  refer  to  any 
premises  including  the  precinct  thereof    (i)  wherein  ten  or  more  workers  are  working,  or  were 
working  on  any  day  of  the  preceding  twelve  months,  and  in  any  part  of  which  a  manufacturing 
process  is  being  carried  on  with  the  aid  of  power,  or  is  ordinarily  so  carried  on,  or  (ii)  wherein 
twenty  or  more  workers  are  working,  or  were  working  on  any  day  of  the  preceding  twelve 
months  and  in  any  part  of  which  a  manufacturing  process  is  being  carried  on  without  the  aid  of 
power, or is ordinarily so carried on. Closed factories with fixed assets on site are also considered 
as  registered  factories  till  they  are  de-registered  and  removed  from  the  live-register  maintained 
by the Chief Inspector of Factories (CIF) in the State. 
201 8  the  reference  period  is  the  financial  year  commencing  from  1 st  April  201 7  and  ending  on 
31 st March 201 8 or  the accounting year of the factory ending on any date between 0 1.04. 20 17  to

8.
     Fixed  Capital:  Fixed  Capital  represents  the  depreciated  value  of  fixed  assets  owned 
by  the  factory  as  on  the  closing  day  of  the  accounting  year.  Fixed  assets  are  those,  which  have 
normal productive life of more than one year. Fixed capital covers all type of assets, new or used 
or  own  constructed,  deployed  for  productions,  transportation,  living  or  recreational  facilities, 
hospitals,  schools,  etc.  for  factory  personnel.  It  would  include  land,  building,  plant  and 
machinery,  transport  equipment  etc.  It  includes  the  fixed  assets  of  the  head  office  allocable  to 
the  factory  and  also  the  full  value  of  assets  taken  on  hire-purchase  basis  (Whether  fully  paid  or 
not)  excluding  interest  element.  It  excludes  intangible  assets  and  assets  solely  used  for  post-
manufacturing activities such as, sale, storage, distribution, etc. 
 
9.      Depreciation:  Depreciation is consumption of fixed capital by the factory due to wear 
and  tear  and  obsolescence  during  the  accounting  year  and  is  taken  as  provided  by  the  factory 
owner,  or  if  not  provided  by  the  factory  this  is  estimated  on  the  basis  of  cost  of  installation  and 
working life of the fixed assets. 
 
10.    Finished Goods:  Finished Goods are those, which are manufactured by the factory for 
sale. Finished goods should conform to a prescribed standard. 
 
11.    Physical  Working  Capital:  This  is  defined  to  include  all  physical  inventories  owned, 
held  or  controlled  by  the  factory  as  on  the  closing  day  of  the  accounting  year  such  as  the 
materials, fuels and lubricants, stores, etc. that enter into products manufactured by the factory 
itself  or  supplied  by  the  factory  to  others  for  processing.  Physical  working  capital  also  includes 
the value of stock of materials, fuels and stores etc. purchased expressly for re-sale, semi-finished 
goods and goods- in-process on account of others and goods made by the factory which are ready 
for  sale  at  the  end  of  the  accounting  year.  However,  it  does  not  include  the  stock  of  the 
materials,  fuels,  stores,  etc.  supplied  by  others  to  the  factory  for  processing.  Finished  goods 
processed  by  others  from  raw  materials  supplied  by  the  factory  and  held  by  them  are  included 
and finished goods processed by the factory from raw materials supplied by others, are excluded. 
 
12.    Working  Capital:  Working  Capital  is  the  sum  total  of  the  physical  working  capital  as 
already  defined  above  and  the  cash  deposits  in  hand  and  at  bank,  land,  the  net  balance  of 
amounts receivable over amounts payable at the end of the accounting year. Amounts receivable 
include value of credit items on revenue account, such as sums due to the factory for goods sold,

and  recreational  facilities  and  services  and  grants  to  trade  unions  and  cooperative  stores  meant 
for employees. All group benefits are included.  
 
22.     Emoluments:  These are defined in the same way as wages but paid to all employees 
plus  imputed  value  of  benefits  in  kind  i.e.  the  net  cost  to  the  employers  on  those  goods  and 
services provided to employees free of charge or at markedly reduced cost which are clearly and 
primarily of  benefit  to  the employees  as  consumers.  It  includes  profit  sharing,  festival  and  other

employees.    
 
24 .    Compensation of Employees:  Compensation of employees is the total of emoluments 
and supplement to emoluments. 
 
25.     Mandays  Worked:  These  are  obtained  by  summing  up  the  number  of  mandays 
worked  by  persons  working  in  each  shift  over  all  the  shifts  on  all  days,  i.e.  both  manufacturing 
and  non-manufacturing  days.  This  figure  excludes  persons  who  are  paid  but  remain  on  leave, 
strike, etc. 
 
26.     Mandays Paid For:  The number of mandays paid for is arrived at by summing up the 
number  of  employees  paid  for  in  each  shift.  This  also  includes  mandays  on  weekly  schedul e 
holidays  if  paid  for  and  those  absences  with  pay  as  also  mandays  lost  through  lay  off/  strike  for 
which compensation was payable. 
 
27.     Working Day:  Working day means the days on which a manufacturing process and/ 
or repair or maintenance work was carried on. 
 
28.     Non-working  Day:  Apart  from  manufacturing  day  and  repair  and  maintenance  days 
there  may  be  some  non-working  days.  Non  working  days  are  those  days  on  which  the  workers 
give their attendance but due to non-availability of raw materials power etc. no effective work is 
done.  As  the  workers  are  paid  for  these  days  such  days  are  also  taken  into  account  for  the 
purpose of labour statistics.

29.   
Basic  Materials:  Basic  materials  are  the  materials  which  are  important  and  of  key 
nature  to  the  industry,  on  which  the  manufacturing  process  is  based,  viz.  metal  for  machine, 
leather for shoe. Such material is not lost through the process of production but only changes its 
forms. 
  30.    Consumable  Stores:  All  such  materials  which  assist  the  manufacturing  process  and 
loose  their  identity  without  entering  the  products  are  called  consumable  stores,  e.g.,  cotton 
waste. 
  31.    Fuel  Consumed:  Fuel  Consumed  represent  total  purchase  value  of  all  items  of  fuels, 
lubricants, electricity, water (purchased to make steam) etc. consumed by the factory during the 
accounting  year  except  those  which  directly  enter  into  products  as  materials  consumed.  It 
excludes  that  part  of  fuels,  which  is  produced  and  consumed  by  the  factory  in  manufacture  i.e., 
all intermediate products and also fuels consumed by employees as part of amenities. It includes 
quantities  acquired  and  consumed  from  allied  concerns,  their  book  value  being  taken  as  their 
purchase  value  and  also  the  quantities  consumed  in  production  of  machinery  or  other  capital 
items for factory's own use. 
 
32.     Materials  Consumed:  Materials  consumed  represent  the  total  delivered  value  of  all 
items  of  raw  materials,  components,  chemicals,  packing  materials  and  stores  which  actually 
entered into the production process of the factory during the accounting year. It also includes the 
cost  of  all  the  materials  used  in  the  production  of  fixed  assets,  including  construction  work  for 
factoryâs  own  use.  Components  and  accessories  fitted  as  purchased  with  the  finished  product 
during  the  accounting  year  are  also  to  be  included.  It  excludes  intermediate  products. 
Intermediate  products  in  the  above  context mean  all  those  products  which  are produced  by  the 
factory and consumed for further manufacturing process. 
 
33.     Total  Input:  This  comprises  gross  value  of  fuel  materials  etc.  consumed  (as  defined 
above)  and  also  other  inputs  viz.  (a) cost of  non-industrial  services received  from  others  (b)  cost 
of materials consumed for repair and maintenance of factoryâs fixed assets including cost of work 
don e  by  others  to  the  factoryâs  fixed  assets  (c)  cost  of  contract  and  commission  work  done  by 
others on materials supplied by the factory  (d) cost of office supplies and products reported for 
sale during last year & used for further manufacture during the accounting year.    
 
34.     Intermediate  Product:  Intermediate  Product  is  a  product  which  is  obtained  during  a 
manufacturing process, which may or may not be saleable and is not the intended final product. 
 
35.     Net  Value  of  Semi-Finished  Goods:  It  represents  the  excess/deficit  of  value  of  semi-
finished  goods  and/or  goods- in-process  at  the  end  of  the  accounting  year  over  that  at  the 
beginning of year. 
 
36.     Products:  These  are  defined  to  include  the  ex-factory  value  (i.e.  exclusive  of  taxes, 
duties  etc.  on  sale  and  inclusive  of  subsidies  etc.,  if  any)  of  all  products  and  by-products, 
excluding  intermediate  products,  that  have  been  completed  during  the  accounting  year  for  sale 
whether actually sold during the accounting year or entered into books. Also include fixed assets 
produced by the factory for its own use. 
  37.    Gross Output:  Gross output is defined to include the ex-factory value, (i.e., exclusive 
of  taxes,  duties,  etc.  on  sale  and  inclusive  of  subsidies  etc.,  if  any)  of  products  and  by-products

manufactured during the accounting year, and the net value of the semi-finished goods, work-
in-
process,  (represents  the  excess/deficit of  value of  semi-finished  goods  or  work- in-process  at  the 
end  of  the  accounting  year  over  that  of  the  beginning  of  the  year  plus  net  balance  of  semi-
finished  fixed  assets  on  factoryâs  capital  account)  and  also  the  receipts  for  industrial  and  non -
industrial  services  rendered  to  others,  value  of  semi-finished  goods  of  last  year  sold  in  the 
current year, sale value of goods sold in the same condition as purchased and value of electricity 
generated  and  sold.  Value  of  gross  output  and  total  output  has  been  used  in  the  text  inter-
changeable to mean the same thing. 
  38.    Industrial  Services:  Any  services  taken  or  rendered  from  one  to  another  unit 
resulting  in  increase  in  the  value  of  material  during  the  manufacturing  process  are  industrial 
services. 
  39.    Non-Industrial  Services:  All  such  services  which  do  not  have  a  direct  bearing  on  the 
manufacturing  process  but  are  needed  by  any  manufacturing  unit  are  called  non-industrial 
services, say, transport. 
  40.    Net  Value  Added:  This  is  the  increment  to  the  value  of  goods  and  services  that  is 
contributed  by  the  factory  and  is  obtained  by  deducting  the  value  of  total  inputs  and 
depreciation from gross value of output.
