| Abstract |
Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) has been producing National Account estimates and other macro-economic indicators of the country from sector wise economic activities. Agriculture sector occupies largest share 23.95%, (CBS 2022) in the national economy in terms of GDP. The share of the industrial sector to total GDP is around 8.11% (CBS, 2022). Among the industrial sectors, the manufacturing sector (section C of NSIC) covers around 5.65% of the GDP; the Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply (section D of NSIC), the mining and quarrying (section B of NSIC) and Water supply, sewerage, waste management and remediation activities (section E of NSIC) cover around 1.37%, 0.58% and 0.51% of the total GDP respectively. The development of the industrial sector is considered essential because it can contribute not only to expansion of the industrial sector but also affects other sectors of the economy, which in turns supports in poverty alleviation through employment generation and income expansion. Reliable and strong statistical information is thus required to know the current situation of the industrial sector of the country and also for the proper formulation and evaluation of the industrial plans and programs. Keeping this in mind, CBS has been collecting and disseminating the official industrial statistics of the country through regular censuses and surveys.
In the previous industrial censuses and surveys, only the manufacturing establishments were taken under the scope. Now, the scope of industrial survey is extended to other three sectors of the economic activities i.e. Mining and quarrying; Electricity, gas, steam and air conditioning supply; and Water supply, sewerage, waste management and remediation activities. The current National Industrial Survey (NIS) has therefore covered all these four sectors of the economy as defined by the NSIC. This is therefore, the first integrated and comprehensive survey of industrial sector in Nepal, in terms of industrial statistics.
Nepal has a long history of conducting the manufacturing censuses and surveys. The first Census of Manufacturing Establishments (CMEs) was conducted in 1964/65. After that, it was conducted regularly in almost every five years. CMEs had covered those establishments which perform the manufacturing activities and have 10 or more persons engaged. It was continued upto 10th CME held in 2011/12. For the establishments with less than 10 persons engaged, CBS had conducted Sample Survey of Small Manufacturing establishments (SSMEs) in every 10 years. Begun in 1972/73, CBS had already conducted the 5th SSMEs in 2008/09. Both CMEs and SSMEs provide the comprehensive information on number of establishments, total number of employees, wages/salaries, input/output and other information on the manufacturing sector.
This NIS has covered both the large establishments (10 or more persons engaged) and small establishments (less than 10 persons engaged). It also includes other three sectors of the economic activities as mentioned above. The NIS, 2019/20 is the 11th series in terms of census operation whereas it is 6th series in terms of survey operation as in its history. |
