The poverty line used in this chapter is based on, the Report of the Expert Group headed by S. Tendulkar, which reviewed the methodology for estimation of poverty (GOI 2009). This poverty estimate is based on the Mixed Reference period (MRP) where the recall period is over 365 days for lower frequency consumption goods (like clothing, footwear, etc.) and 30 days for higher frequency consumption goods (like food). This is unlike the old method where the Uniform Reference Period (URP) of 30 days was used.
