Regional Input Output Table for the State of Punjab

Abstract

Because of policy relevance of regional input-output analysis, a vast literature on the construction of regional input-output tables has emerged in the recent past, especially on the non-survey and hybrid methods. Although, construction of regional input-output tables is not new in India, but generation of input-output table using non-survey methods is relatively a rare phenomenon. This work validates alternative non-survey, location quotient methodologies and finally uses comparatively better approach to generate the forty two sector regional input-output table for the state of Punjab for 2006-07.Regional, Input-Output, Location Quotients
