human development index can be constructed by first constructing the individual indices of the above three components and then taking the simple average of the indices. to construct the relevant indices, the undp first fixes the maximum and minimum values of each indicator for a particular year and then with the help of the following formula, one can arrive at the achievement level of the country concerned in respect of a particular indicator.b
