Table 2 presents the revised figures on volume index of retail sales for all retail outlets and by broad type of retail outlet for January 2013 and the provisional figures for February 2013 (and also those for January and February combined). The volume index is compiled with the average monthly volume index of retail sales from October 2009 to September 2010 taken as 100. Table 3 shows the movement of the value and volume of total retail sales in terms of the year-on-year rate of change for a month compared with the same month in the preceding year based on the original series, and in terms of the rate of change for a three-month period compared with the preceding three-month period based on the seasonally adjusted series.
