Notes :

1.

Rise in indices indicates appreciation of rupee and vice versa.

2.

For "Note on Methodology" on the indices presented here, please see Page S 653 of July 1998 issue of this Bulletin.

3.

It may be recalled that in the aforesaid Note on Methodology, it was indicated that the base year 1996-97 would be a moving one. Accordingly, with effect from April 1999, the base year 1996-97 has been shifted forward to 1997-98. Again, with effect from April 2000, the base year 1997-98 has been shifted forward to 1998-99 and with effect from April 2001, the base year has been shifted forward to 1999-2000.

4.

The indices on REER have been recalculated from April 1993 onwards using the new Wholesale Price Index (WPI) series with base year 1993-94=100.
