Indian Economy

This textbook was written for undergraduate students outside the economics honours track, including those studying commerce, and it covers the course on the Indian economy. Its five sections trace the country's growth and development, starting with the central questions of growth, development and sustainability and the factors that shape them. The book then looks at economic development in India since independence, the structural changes that followed, and an assessment of the country's record on growth, inequality, poverty, employment and unemployment. A final section compares the Indian economy with other economies. Twenty chapters, with contributions from several specialists, carry the material and include recommended original readings.
