The article discusses the updated Modified BG Prasad Classification for October 2023, which is a socio-economic classification scale used to determine the health status of urban and rural families in India. The classification is based on year-on-year inflation rates and changes in prices of consumer goods, such as food, beverages, clothing, housing, and fuel. The All-India Consumer Price Index for Industrial Workers (CPI-IW) for October 2023 is 138.4. The BG Prasad Scale, initially introduced in 1961 with a base value of 100, has been periodically revised with linkage factors introduced in 1982, 2001, and 2016 to convert the CPI back to the 1960 base year. The article provides the calculation method for the revised Modified BG Prasad classification and presents the updated per capita monthly income values for October 2023. The correction factor is calculated as 90.98, and the new income values are determined using this factor.
