[Nayan]

In a study comprising of time series data, is it necessary that the data should be equally spaced or of the same interval i.e.t, t+2, t+4…rather than having data of the form t, t+1, t+3, t+7…
I seek the experts advice asap…pls suggest…

You don’t need to have an equally spaced data, but depending on your question you may need to make some adjustments for the unequal intervals.
