SPECIAL ASSIGNMENTS
GDP Estimates



BOS computed GDP estimates for Punjab.
These are, however, crude due to paucity of
data and lack of break-up of information by
provinces for many sectors as well as the
conceptual and methodological problems
involved therein.
In the cases where provincial data was not
available GDP estimates for Punjab were
arrived at by apportioning the national GDP on
the basis of labour force engaged in that
sector.
