A Bhopal State postage stamp worth 1 anna and three pies. A pie (abbreviated as Ps) was a unit of currency in India, Burma and Pakistan until 1947. It was the smallest currency unit, equal to 1 ⁄ 3 of a pice, 1 ⁄ 12 of an anna or 1 ⁄ 192 of a rupee. During the mid-nineteenth century, one pie was worth 12 cowry. [1]
The wholesale price index (WPI) ... in India about 435 items were used for calculating the WPI in base year 1993-94 while the advanced base year 2011-12 uses 697 ...
The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159.It appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics, and some of these formulae are commonly used for defining π, to avoid relying on the definition of the length of a curve.
Indian mathematics emerged in the Indian subcontinent [1] from 1200 BCE [2] until the end of the 18th century. In the classical period of Indian mathematics (400 CE to 1200 CE), important contributions were made by scholars like Aryabhata, Brahmagupta, Bhaskara II, Varāhamihira, and Madhava.
An anna (or ānna) was a currency unit formerly used in British India, equal to 1 ⁄ 16 of a rupee. [1] It was subdivided into four pices or twelve pies (thus there were 192 pies in a rupee). When the rupee was decimalised and subdivided into 100 (new) paise, one anna was therefore equivalent to 6.25 paise.
Maximum retail price (MRP) is a manufacturer-calculated price that is the highest price that can be charged for a product sold in India, Indonesia, where it is known as Harga Eceran Tertinggi (HET), and Bangladesh. [1] The MRP is also imposed by the government in Sri Lanka for goods designated as 'essential commodities'. [2]
In India, a total of 697 commodities data on price level is tracked through WPI which is an indicator of movement in prices of commodities in all trade and transactions. It is also the price index which is available on a weekly basis with the shortest possible time lag only two weeks. [17] Base year to calculate WPI is 2011-2012=100
