Description
Authors present a comprehensive survey of the Indian Economy in terms of GDP growth, savings, investment and developments in various sectors like agriculture, industry and services. A contradiction observed in India is that while the reform process has resulted in boosting GDP growth, it has failed to yield acceleration in the process of poverty reduction and growth of employment. A thorough revision of the book was necessitated by these rapid changes taking place in the Indian Economy. Readers will appreciate that economic scenarios, both at the global and national levels, have been changing continuously. It has been our endeavour to introduce new analysis by way of adding new section and revising existing chapters for a better understanding of the evolving problems and opportunities for the Indian Economy. A new chapter namely 'The Approach Paper to the Twelfth Five Year Plan (2012-17)' has recently been added in the book. Following sections have also recently been added in the book:
•  Central Government Budget 2014-15
•  Extent of water resources
•  Relative Shift in the Shares of NSDP and Employment
•  A Critique of the Eleventh Plan
•  A Note on Railway Budget 2013-14
