Tips on using this forum..

(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?

(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

There could be an industry sponsered body that distributes rates in India. In Australia we have a couple of organisations that publish up to date productivity rates. These organisations are industry sponsered but you have to look for them. Sorry I couldn’t be much more help.
Cheers

For what geopraghical area are you looking for productivity rates? Care should be taken that production rates used (man-hours/quantity unit) are consistent for the region. Otherwise the distortion of the relative % weightings or BQ (man-hours) could render physical progress EV unreliable and inaccurate.
