The paper attempts to build a Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) for India for 2007-2008. It consists of 78 sectors and nine categories of households which are based on occupation and location (i.e., rural and urban). The gross value added has been divided into three factors of production, i.e., labour, capital and land. Further, labour has been divided into three types, i.e., unskilled, semi-skilled and skilled. The main data sources used in the construction of SAM are CSO's I-O table 2007-2008, NSSO's 66th round of survey on consumer expenditure and NCAER's Income-Expenditure Survey, 2004-2005.

Economic Planning in India over the past four decades resulted in a differentiated growth process across regions/states. This paper examines the structural differences between a least developed state of India (Assam) and a most developed one (Punjab), using their respective Input-Output sectors, it highlights the technological differences in the two economies. The paper also evaluates and compares the sectoral backward and forward linkages - the former with and without imports. In addition, it brings out the conceptual and data problems in constructing an Input-Output model at the regional level. It also suggests the methodology of resolving these problems.- Structural Comparisons through Input-Output (I-O) Tables over Time

There have been a number of studies comparing the economic structure of the economy. The comparisons are done by comparing the changes in sector-wise outputs resulting from (i) Using the same final demand on different I-O tables (Technology effect) and (ii) Changing the final demand and keeping the same I-O table (Demand effect). For some studies even the individual input coefficients have been compared. These comparisons can be effectively done if the sources for the data and methodology of construction of tables are the same. However, there are problems in making a such analysis.
At an interval of about five years, the base for National Accounts Statistics is revised. With the revision of the base some changes are made in the estimates leading to huge differences. They are not because of a structural change but the change in output by adding new areas of production. Once this change is made, the revised output has to be adjusted in the row of the sector.
With the availability of recent data or changes of data source with each changing series, the estimates differ. For the series with the base 2011-2012, for manufacturing, the concepts have changed from registered and unregistered to organized and unorganized manufacturing. In fact, the CSO has already constructed supply-use tables for the years 20011-2012 and 2012- 2013 by using estimates compiled for the new series of estimation of GDP (2011-2012 base). There are huge differences in the value of output and GVA in case of a number of sectors for the year 2011-2012 for both the series. We have analysed the effects of such changes on the supply use table constructed by CSO for the year 2012-2013.
