Decent attempt. More or less you have covered the points. Intro is good.
Double deflation can be explained a bit better, you can explain how it leads to overestimation as well as underestimation.
Other points are good.
Try to mention a way forward in GS2, GS3 questions.
Conclusion is fine.
Keep practicing. 🙂

Please mention reference ID.
Introduction is fine. In next part, elaborate upon the points a bit as this part is the crux of the answer. Use key terms like in 1st point, mention absence of double deflation, next mention about lack of sectoral weight revision ( use the example of IT industry etc).
Also mention some recent factors which have effected the unorganized sector in a more adverse manner such as demonetisation, GST, pandemic etc.
Next part about relationship between GDP and economic recovery can be kept short.
Try to write a brief way forward.
Conclusion is fine.
Keep practicing. 🙂
