Note:
1. Basic data are from BSCIC surveys of cottage
(1980-82 and 1987-91) and small 11978 and 1987-91) industries.
2. For calculation of growth rates, the cottage industries data
for 80-82 are treated as though for 1980 and 1987-91
data are treated as
though for 1989 (the Survey started in Dec. 1987 and ended in June 1991).
3. The data for small industries have been extrapolated to 1980 from 1978 using the growth rates of value added and employment over 1978-89.
4. For obtaining rural levels, rural/total ratios of employment
and value added for each subsector were taken from the BBS survey of nonfarm
activities 1990, and the assumption made that rural-urban distribution has not
changed over the period.
5. The handloom data are from Handloom Censuses 1978
and 1990 and is included in 32-Textiles, apparel, and leather.
1978 data have been extrapolated to 1980 using the 1978-90
growth rates.1980 figures have been adjusted or non - inclusion of Chittagong
Hill Tract region, by using the same rate of growth as for
handlooms in rest
of the country.

Note: The industries are predominantly rural in nature,
though the data include both rural and urban areas.
Basic data is from BSCIC surveys of cottage (1980-82 anal 987-911 and small (1978 and 1987-91) industries.
For calculation of growth rates, the cottage industries data for 1980-82 are treated as though for 1980 and 1987-91 data are treated as though for 1989 (the Survey started in Dec. 1987 and ended in June 19911.
The data for small industries have been extrapolated to 1980 from 1978 using the growth rates of value added and employment over 1978-89.
