What is wrong with this data (20)
- VALUE IN MILLIONS OF US DOLLARS. The portal will also return rupee crore and quantity, but at 4-digit level its Unit column is BLANK — an HS heading can mix units and DGCI&S does not state one — so quantity is not carried. A figure with no unit cannot be published here.
- FOUR-DIGIT HS HEADINGS, one per crop, taken as published. Going deeper would mean summing sub-headings, and a total we computed is a different kind of number from one DGCI&S published.
- Onion is NOT carried: heading 0703 is 'onions, shallots, garlic, leeks and other alliaceous vegetables', which is not onion.
- Coffee (0901) and natural rubber (4001) are not carried: the Atlas has no production series for either, and a crop page holding trade data alone cannot render.
- Spices are not carried here. They come from the Spices Board report, which is the same DGCI&S data; taking both would put two facts against one dimension tuple.
- Portal vintage: Data available 2017-2018 to 2025-2026. Last data updated on 07/08/2026. Figures for the most recent year are the ones most likely to be revised.
- The portal flags some headings with an asterisk, meaning the ITC HS code was dropped or re-allocated and its unit may change from April 2026. This affects comparability across that boundary.
- The workbook carries no publisher line of its own; attribution rests on the download page in source.url.
- 'Others' rows are unallocated residuals, not places. Never name one as a state.
- No crop is excluded; potato is included (the indianpotato-web carve-out was reversed on 2026-09-14).
- Crop names are the workbook's, with the '(i)' style bullet inside the Citrus block stripped; the sub-group is carried in `subgroup` instead.
- Category and sub-group totals ARE included, but carry kind = 'aggregate' and must be excluded before summing — they would double-count. Only kind = 'crop' rows are crops.
- Two categories are corrected against the sheet's own layout: it prints an 'Aromatics and Medicinal' header with no crops under it before the flower rows, and gives Honey no header. Flowers Cut/Loose are labelled Flowers, and Honey is labelled Honey.
- The workbooks carry no publisher line of their own; attribution rests on the download page in source.url.
- 'Others' rows are unallocated residuals, not places; they carry kind = 'residual'.
- Columns named TOTAL… or OTHER… are aggregates of the columns beside them, not crops. They are kept for the additivity check and carry kind != 'crop': none.
- Union Territories ARE included, from each workbook's separate UT sheet, and carry kind = 'ut'.
- State naming drifts between releases (Chhatisgarh/Chhattisgarh, Arunchal/Arunachal Pradesh). Normalise via the region registry before joining years — do not join on the raw string.
- A crop absent in one year's sheet is simply absent — it is not a zero.
- Potato is included. It was previously excluded so it could live only in indianpotato-web; that rule was reversed on 2026-09-14.
