National income, inclusive growth and other social sector related schemes 

National Income

National income accounting refers to the set of methods and principles that are used by the government for measuring production and income, or in other words economic activity of a country in a given time period.

The various measures of determining national income are GDP (Gross Domestic Product), GNP (Gross National Product), and NNP (Net National Product) along with other measures such as personal income and disposable income.

National income accounting equation is an equation that shows the relationship between income and expense of an economy and other categories. It is represented by the following equation:

Y = C + I + G + (X – M)

Where

Y = National income

C = Personal consumption expenditure

I = Private investment

G = Government spending

X = Net exports

M = Imports

The most important metrics that are determined by national income accounting are GDP, GNP, NNP, disposable income, and personal income.
