PREFACE
Price collection is one of the major items of work undertaken by the Department of
Economics and Statistics. The importance and usefulness of the information pertaining to the
price movements has much significance in the context of a growing economy. This Department
has been collecting different types of prices viz. Farm price, Market price, etc. (both Wholesale
and Retail). These prices are being widely used for various purposes such as for the preparation
of Indices, to provide compensation to Farmers and for tendering consumable articles for Govt.
Institutions. Among the Retail prices, the statement of daily prices of fifty essential commodities
being collected on daily basis from District Headquarters assume significance, because it is
being forwarded daily to the office of the Chief Minister and Minister of Food and Civil
Supplies, Minister for Agriculture, Chief Secretary, Food and civil Supplies Secretary, Planning
secretary,,Department of Civil supplies, Reserve Bank of India, Consumerfed etc. In addition to
the daily prices, weekly prices are also being collected every Friday.
From January 2004 onwards a publication titled “PRICE BULLETIN” is being prepared
and published monthly incorporating the Retail prices of main essential commodities under 8
major groups. Group wise analysis has been made with reference to current month, previous
month and the corresponding month of the previous year with suitable pictorial representations.
This publication is being prepared and published by Prices Division under the
supervision of Sri.K.Damodaran,Additional Director (Prices). I appreciate the work done by
Cheruthottathil (Statistical Assistant Grade I) and all the Price Reporters and Price
Supervisors in the Districts for preparing such a worthy publication.
Suggestions if any for improving the publication is solicited.
