The National Income Unit of the Central Statistical Organisation (C.S.O.) is now-a-days entrusted with the measurement of national income. Here this unit of C.S.O. estimated the major part of national income from the various sectors like agriculture, forestry, animal husbandry, fishing, mining and factory establishments with the help of product method.
The unit of C.S.O. is also applying the income method for the estimation of the remaining part of national income raised from the other sectors.
Till now we have three different series in the national income estimates of India. These include Conventional Series, Revised Series and New Series.
For estimation of National Income, the government established Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) which regularly publishes national income data.
The government is planning to merge Central Statistical Organisation (CSO) and National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) for promoting statistical network in the country. The newly merged unit will be named as National Statistical Organisation (NSO). The head of the organisation will be designated as Chief of Statistician of India and will be having the rank of 'Chief Secretary'.
