C .  R.C. Dutt
D .  D.R. Gadgil
Answer: Option A Answer: (a) Dadabhai Naoroji prepared the first estimates of National income in 1876. He estimated the national income by first estimating the value of agricultural production and then adding a certain percentage as non-agricultural production. However, such a method can only be called a non-scientific method. The first person to adopt a scientific procedure in estimating the national income was Dr VKRV Rao in 1931.
