Aggregate Productivity Growth in Indian Manufacturing: An Application of Domar Aggregation

Author

Listed:
  • Deb Kusum Das

Abstract

An attempt is made to compute the aggregate productivity growth using the Domar aggregation technique. Building up from the Total Factor Productivity Growth (TFPG) estimates for 3-digit industries, we have used Domar weights to computed total factor productivity (TFP) growth for selected 10, 2-digit industries for the period 1980-2000. [ICRIER WP no. 239].
