Explain how Inflation is measured in India. Evaluate the need for various indices used in Inflation measurement in India.(150 words/10 Marks).
Approach Introduction Introduce the Inflation. BODY Explain how inflation is measured in India. mention the need for various inflation measurement methods. Conclusion. Conclude with RBI or newser method of inflation measurement ANSWER Inflation can be defined as a situation characterized by a substantial rise in the general price level observed over a period of time, which may generate an expectation of a future price rise. Inflation can also be defined as a decrease in the purchasing power of each unit of currency. This is because, after inflation, each unit of currency can now buy lesser goods and services. Inflation refers to that price rise that can be mathematically calculated and often is considered irreversible. According to Keynes, wherever there is any mismatch between aggregate demand and aggregate supply, it results in rising prices. Keynes also proposed the concept of True Inflation and Semi-Inflation. true Inflation is one that is at full employment, otherwise Semi-Inflation. So, it can be considered that there are largely two factors of inflation. The first, Demand-pull inflation, where the demands are increasing, and the second is Supply-push or Cost-push inflation. Types of measurement of Inflation 1) Consumer Price Index. The Consumer Price Index (CPI) is a measure that examines the weighted average of prices of a basket of consumer goods and services, such as transportation, food, and medical care. It is calculated by taking price changes for each item in the predetermined basket of goods and averaging them. Changes in the CPI are used to assess price changes associated with the cost of living. In total it consists of 460 items which are divided into the following six heads- Food and Beverages. Pan, tobacco, and other intoxicants. Cloth and footwear. Fuel and electricity. Housing Miscellaneous- medicines, etc. 2) WPI- Wholesale Price Index This is the most popular inflation rate calculation methodology in India. The index used to calculate wholesale inflation is known as the Wholesale Price Index (WPI). This inflation rate is often known as headline inflation It’s calculated by the Office of Economic adviser under dept of promotion of Industry and internal trade (DPIIT) under the Ministry of Commerce and Industry. Data is published on the 14th or 15th day of the Month. In WPI there are 692 items, which can be divided into three categories: Primary articles- 23% weightage; Energy. -13 %; Manufacturing—64 %. The biggest shortcoming of WPI is that it does not consider the service sector. 3) Service performance Index In line with Chandrashekhar committees’ recommendations, Ramesh Chand has recommended that along with New WPI there should be a service performance indicator also consisting of six major services RBI in coordination with the government through monetary and fiscal policy tries to manage inflation. The government has consistently revised the base year as well as the composition of these Indexes to ensure a true reflection of inflation of economy as wholesale as well as at retail level,
