A base year is the year used for comparison for the level of a particular economic index. The
arbitrary level of 100 is selected so that percentage changes (either rising or falling) can be
easily depicted.
*By every 10 years there is change will be minimum 4% rise in price of items so base year
has to be changed .
GDP of any of the previous years is chosen as the intial GDP and the eyar that is chosen is
known as the base year.
Suppose India’s GDP is Rs. 100 and base year is 2000. Now, in 2015, many sectors such
as IT, e-commerce, mobile telephony etc contributes to our economy, which were not
present in 2000. Thus, India might be showing wrong GDP figures, since majority of
economic activities driving sectors are not represented in Rs. 100. So, our govt. decides to
change the base year to 2010. The revised base year will lead to all such sectors coming
into play, and the GDP number will increase as the total output from these sectors will be
added, which was not the case in 2000 base year.

to the same base year. This is a step in the right direction. AffairsCloud Today
