The nationwide lockdown and other measures implemented to restrict the spread of COVID-19 from March-end led to most establishments not operating in April 2020 and consequently, there were many units that reported `Nil` production, affecting comparison of the indices for April 2020 and April 2021, the ministry said.
Along with the quick estimates of IIP for April 2021, the indices for March 2021 have also undergone the first revision and those for January 2021 have undergone the final revision in the light of the updated data received from the source agencies.
“The Quick Estimates for April 2021, the first revision for March 2021 and the final revision for January 2021 have been compiled at weighted response rates of 85 per cent, 92 per cent and 95 per cent, respectively,” it added.
