Abstract

The World Bank Enterprise Survey (WBES) is a firm-level survey of a representative sample of an economy's private sector. The surveys cover a broad range of topics related to the business environment including access to finance, corruption, infrastructure, competition, and performance.

Geographic coverage

National coverage

Analysis unit

The primary sampling unit of the study is the establishment. An establishment is a physical location where business is carried out and where industrial operations take place or services are provided. A firm may be composed of one or more establishments. For example, a brewery may have several bottling plants and several establishments for distribution. For the purposes of this survey an establishment must make its own financial decisions and have its own financial statements separate from those of the firm. An establishment must also have its own management and control over its payroll.

Universe

The universe of inference includes all formal (i.e., registered) private sector businesses (with at least 1% private ownership) and with at least five employees. In terms of sectoral criteria, all manufacturing businesses (ISIC Rev 4. codes 10-33) are eligible; for services businesses, those corresponding to the ISIC Rev 4 codes 41-43, 45-47, 49-53, 55-56, 58, 61-62, 69-75, 79, and 95 are included in the Enterprise Surveys. Cooperatives and collectives are excluded from the Enterprise Surveys. All eligible establishments must be registered with the registration agency. In the case of India, the definition of registration of the 6th Economic Census (EC) was used, where registration can be from any of the following: Shops and Commercial Establishments Act; Companies Act, 1956; Factories Act, 1948; Central Excise/Sales Tax Act; Societies Registration Act; Co-operative Societies Act; Directorate of Industries; KVIC/KVIB/DC: Handloom/Handicrafts; Registered with other relevant agencies.

Kind of data

Sample survey data [ssd]

Sampling procedure

The WBES use stratified random sampling, where the population of establishments is first separated into non-overlapping groups, called strata, and then respondents are selected through simple random sampling from each stratum. The detailed methodology is provided in the Sampling Note (https://www.enterprisesurveys.org/content/dam/enterprisesurveys/documents/methodology/Sampling_Note-Consolidated-2-16-22.pdf). Stratified random sampling has several advantages over simple random sampling. In particular, it:

• produces unbiased estimates of the whole population or universe of inference, as well as at the levels of stratification
• ensures representativeness by including observations in all of those categories
• produces more precise estimates for a given sample size or budget allocation, and
• may reduce implementation costs by splitting the population into convenient subdivisions.

The WBES typically use three levels of stratification: industry classification, establishment size, and subnational region (used in combination). Starting in 2022, the WBES bases the industry classification on ISIC Rev. 4 (with earlier surveys using ISIC Rev. 3.1). For regional coverage within a country, the WBES has national coverage.

Note: Refer to Sampling Structure section in "The India 2022 World Bank Enterprise Survey Implementation Report" for detailed methodology on sampling.

Abstract

The Central Statistical Organization (CSO) conducted fifth Economic Census in 2005 in all the States/UTs in collaboration with State Directorates of Economics and Statistics. The first Economic Census was conducted in 1977 covering only non- agricultural establishments and the three Economic Censuses subsequently carried out in 1980, 1990 and 1998 covered all agricultural and non-agricultural enterprises excepting those engaged in crop production and plantation. There was no change in the coverage of the fifth Economic Census as compared to the fourth Economic Census. Economic Census not only provides updated frame for detailed follow-up surveys but also gives basic entrepreneurial data for planning and development specially for unorganized sector of the economy.

There are certain new features in the fifth Economic Census. Addresses of the enterprises employing 10 workers or more were collected for the first time in the fifth Economic Census through Address Slip. At present the country does not maintain a Business Register. The directory of enterprises to be generated from the Address Slip would be the basic input for preparation of a Business Register. For the first time, data collected in the fifth Economic Census are processed through Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) Technology.

The results of EC-2005 "ALL INDIA REPORT" contains the all India figures on the number of enterprises and their employment, cross-classified according to their locations, major activity groups, type of the establishments, size-class of the employment, etc. The disaggregated data for States/UTs are also included in the report.

Intelligent Character Recognition (ICR) technology, which is also known as Automated Forms Processing, was used to process the EC-2005 data. Automated Forms Processing technology enables the user to process documents from their images or directly from paper and convert them to computer readable data.

The schedules of the Fifth EC were scanned/digitized at the fifteen regional Data Processing Centres of Registrar General of India (RGI). After running the edit programme, the error list files were handed over to the State Governments for corrections. The DES officials of the State Government corrected the error files in two/three cycles and then sent the data files to RGI Headquarters to give final touch before sending to Computer Centre, MOSPI. The data files were made further error free by applying auto corrections at the Computer Centre.

At the end of 2024, the number of entities liable to pay the goods and services tax in India under the "normal taxpayer" category consisted of more than 13 million taxpayers. Overall, there were over 14 million registered GST taxpayers during this time. The GST was introduced by the Indian government on July 1, 2017, as a singular indirect tax on the supply of goods and services, which replaced most of the existing indirect taxes levied in the country. GST structure While the GST is paid by consumers, it is conveyed to the government by the businesses providing the goods and services. Currently, GST has a tier tax structure of 5 percent, 12 percent, 18 percent, and 28 percent, with some exceptions for gold and real estate. Items such as food, education, and healthcare are exempt from GST. Luxury items and comfort goods are categorized under higher slabs, whereas necessities are included in lower and nil slab rates. The Goods and Services Tax Network (GSTN) provides a single interface for taxpayers and governments. The system provides processes like registration, filing of returns, and tax payments, online. Impact on the economy GST implementation has proved to be beneficial on various fronts. These include higher revenues, uniformity in taxation, increased transparency, elimination of cascading taxes, online process, and efficient logistics and distribution system. As the GST gains wider acceptance, it is slowly leading to the formalization of the Indian economy.
