India is administratively divided into 35 major and minor states and union territories. Copious amounts of information is produced on each of these. CMIE puts all of this together into one offering - States of India.
A substantial part of the data is sourced from either central or state agencies based on availability and updates. CMIE's own monitoring information generates a lot of state-level data. CMIE compiles all of these from different sources and weaves them into one cohesive and seamless offering. The spectrum of statistics in States of India includes demographic, economic, industrial and socio-economic indicators. The database in the product is supported by analysis, charting tools and forecasts.
The data provided by the service can be divided into 13 broad components. These are listed below with the principal source of data in parenthesis.
Time-series data are provided mostly from 1990-91. In the case of some indicators, the service also provides district-level data.
