Understanding GDP Deflator and Inflation Rates

Nominal GDP increases due to production and price increases over time.
To measure real production changes over time, the effect of increasing prices must be eliminated.
GDP is calculated based on the constant prices of final goods, not current prices.
Nominal GDP is calculated at current prices, but to find real GDP, inflation effects must be removed.
The GDP deflator is a price index used to convert nominal GDP to real GDP.
The GDP deflator helps calculate the impact of inflation on GDP.
Inflation rate can be calculated using the GDP deflator for different years.
In India, the GDP deflator is projected to reach 154.57 points by the end of 2022.
Inflation rate in 2023 compared to 2022 is calculated to be 8.43%.
GDP deflator above 100 indicates higher price levels compared to the base year, while below 100 indicates lower prices.

Operating surplus, a component of employee compensation, includes rent, interest, profit, and royalty.

National income is calculated by adding employee compensation, operating surplus, and mixed income, then adjusting for net factor income from abroad (NFIA).
Gross domestic capital formation involves calculating the change in fixed capital and stock to determine the total capital formation.
Three methods of calculating national income include the income method, expenditure method, and product or value-added method.
Gross value added is determined by subtracting intermediate consumption from the value of output.
State income estimates and net state domestic product (NSDP) are calculated at the state level, with per capita state income obtained by dividing NSDP by the projected population.
Regional accounts in India provide an integrated database on regional economic activities, aiding decision-making at the regional level.
