Abstract

Arby (2008) quarterised the production side of annual GDP, and its subsectors, for 1970- 1971 to 2004-2005, based on constant prices of 1999-2000, as well as on current prices. This study provides quarterly estimates of (sectoral and overall) gross domestic production in Pakistan for the years 1999-2000 to 2011-2012 based on constant prices of 1999-2000, as well as on current prices. Seasonality in quarterly gross domestic product in Pakistan mainly arises from agriculture. Furthermore, this study also provides estimates of various components of the expenditure side of the GDP for 1972-1973 to 2011-2012, for the first time, as far as we are aware of.
