One of the problems in calculating National Income in India is :

aUnder-employment
bInflation
cLow level of savings
dNon-organized sector✓ Correct
eNone of the above / More than one of the above

Explanation

The non-organised sector is a major problem in calculating national income because production and income data from this sector are not provided to any institution, or in many cases, they are not even measured in monetary terms. Due to this data gap, it becomes difficult to estimate the contribution of the unorganised sector in national income.
