Abstract

According to national accounts data, manufacturing industries have been contributing close to 18 percent of GDP in recent years, of which about 14 percent is contributed by “large and medium-scale” industries while the remainder is contributed by “small-scale” industries (Table 2.2). Together manufacturing has already become the largest sector of the economy though still substantially below its peak share in recent history of development, as demonstrated in Chapter 4. Indeed, we argue here that the share of manufacturing in GDP may already be higher than what the national accounts data show.
