Supplementary notes

The Wholesale Price Index or WPI determines the price of wholesale goods, focusing on trade between corporations rather than goods bought by consumers. WPI monitors the movements of supply and demand in industry, manufacturing and construction.
India's financial year begins in April and ends in March. For example, FY 2006 started in April 2005 and ended in March 2006.
