Abstract
India is the second largest producer of ceramic tiles worldwide, accounting for 7 per cent of the global production. The Indian Ceramic Industry has matured and is expected to grow at 9 per cent CAGR by 2022. The present study estimated the state-wise number of ceramic workers using NSO-PLFS data from 2017-18 to 2020-21. Uttar Pradesh was on the top list, with 1.02 lakh workers engaged in this industry, followed by West Bengal, Rajasthan, and Gujarat. The truncated Tobit regression model results showed a significant gap between ceramic and non-ceramic workers’ earnings, and per day earning of ceramic workers was determined based on age, education, and type of worker.
