Frequently Asked Questions :
Q - Does Prarang do surveys to collect data? How does Prarang have such granular
Country-level details which no private or public data source offers?
A - Prarang does not conduct surveys to gather data; instead, we rely on publicly available
sources such as UN Population data, the CIA World Factbook, and private surveys whose results
are accessible through news media and public websites. Our data classification follows a
three-fold method rooted in Indian logic (Tarkashastra): Pramana (evidence-based data
collection) involves gathering data from credible sources; Anumana (estimation and inference)
uses modeling to draw inferences from the collected data; and Upamana (comparison) ranks
countries through relative comparison, calculating the Samana (country average) to determine
whether each country ranks above or below this benchmark. All data sources and estimation
modeling methods are transparently detailed and accessible, with information available for each
data field by clicking the "i" icon.
Q - Does Prarang take responsibility for the absolute data fields that someone buys from it, along with the calculation of the associated ranks?
A - Prarang does not do any surveys. It does data modeling & estimations based on third-party census & surveys, already in the public domain. It also shares the source of the data it uses. Users need to make their own judgment of how and for what purpose and when they use the data that they download from this Prarang website.
Q - What is the frequency of data updates on various data fields of Prarang analytics?
A - We are continuously on the lookout for market announcements of new surveys & new data. You can expect important World survey results to be live on our website, within 30 to 45 days after appearing in press/media. We model on spreadsheets & update our SQL databases, after data validation.
