Annual Survey of Industries (ASI) provides information on important characteristics of registered manufacturing sector for objectively evaluating the industrial scenario of India. It covers the factories registered under the Factories Act, 1948 and establishments under Bidi and Cigar Workers (Conditions of Employment) Act, 1966 and all electricity undertakings engaged in generation, transmission and distribution of electricity, not registered with the Central Electricity Authority (CEA). Survey findings are extensively utilized by planners, policymakers, industry associations, researchers, and business analysts.
As a matter of convention, the results of ASI 2020-21 are published in Volume I, Volume || and an abridged publication namely "Summary Results for Factory Sector". While the two volumes of the publication provide detailed results of factory sector from ASI, the Summary Results for Factory Sector is prepared with the objective to draw attention to certain key features of the ASI results and the same is being brought out as a separate publication. The Summary Results aim to present a comprehensive overview of ASI findings through specialized tables highlighting key characteristics such as employment size, capital investment, gross output, and net value added at both the national and state/UT levels. These tables provide a comprehensive overview of the industrial landscape at the regional as well as at the national level.
Survey for ASI 2020-21, was carried out during April 2022 to November 2022. The Industrial Statistics Wing, Data Processing Division of National Sample Survey Office (NSSO) prepares the entire plan of the survey and the field work is carried out by Field Operations Division of NSSO0. In this survey a significant portion of the reference period was impacted by the COVID 19 pandemic. Additionally, the Ministry of Corporate Affairs extended the deadlines for filing various corporate returns. This resulted in a delayed commencement of the survey's field work.
Iwish to place on record my appreciation for all the officers and staff members of Field Operations Division, Industrial Statistics Wing, Data Processing Division and Survey Coordination Division of NSSO for their dedicated efforts in bringing out the publication. I also record my appreciation for the factory management, who had extended all c0-operation to the field officers in collecting the data from relevant records.
