Notes :-1.Per Capita net availability given above is not strictly representative of the actual level of consumption in the country, because it does not take into account any change in stocks in possession of traders, producers and consumers
2. For Calculation of Per Capita Net availability,the figures of Net Imports from 1981 to 1994  are based on Imports and exports on Govt. of India Account Only.  Net Imports from 1995 onwards are, however, based in the total exports & Imports (both Government and Private accounts).
