Introduction:
About the Indian economy- The economy of India is the ninth-largest in the world by nominal GDP and the third-largest by purchasing power parity(PPP). India is the 19th-largest exporter and the10th-largest importer in the world. The independence-era Indian economy (from 1947 to 1991) was based on a mixed economy combining features of capitalism and socialism, resulting in an inward-looking, interventionist policies and import-substituting economy that failed to take advantage of the post-war expansion of trade. This model contributed to widespread inefficiencies and corruption, and the failings of this system were due largely to its poor implementation. In 1991, India adopted liberal and free-market principles and liberalised its economy to international trade under the guidance of Former Finance minister Manmohan Singh under the Prime Ministry of P.V. Narasimha Rao, prime minister from 1991 to 1996, who had eliminated Licence Raj, a pre- and post-British era mechanism of strict government controls on setting up new industry. Following these major economic reforms, and a strong focus on developing national infrastructure such as the Golden Quadrilateral project by Atal Bihari vajpayee, prime minister, the country 's economic growth progressed at a rapid pace, with relatively large increases in per-capita incomes.
General growth of the Indian economy in the last decade- The economic development in India followed socialist-inspired policies for most of its independent history, including state-ownership of many sectors. After more fundamental reforms since 1991 and their renewal in the 2000s, India has progressed towards a free market economy. In the late 2000s, India 's growth reached 7.5%, which will double the average income in a decade. The economic growth has been driven by the expansion of services that have

    INDIA'S ECONOMY HAS MADE great strides in the years since independence. In 1947 the country was poor and shattered by the violence and economic and physical disruption involved in the partition from Pakistan. The economy had stagnated since the late nineteenth century, and industrial development had been restrained to preserve the area as a market for British manufacturers. In fiscal year (FY--see Glossary) 1950, agriculture, forestry, and fishing accounted for 58.9 percent of the gross domestic product (GDP--see Glossary) and for a much larger proportion of employment. Manufacturing, which was dominated by the jute and cotton textile industries, accounted for only 10.3 percent of GDP at that time.…

    Post independence, Indian economy has seen many transitions till now. Form 50’s till 1991, it has followed the principles of Nationalization based on the Socialist principles which it followed from then prospering Soviet Union. But, during the crisis of 1991, when the country was on the brink of going bankrupt, economic reforms were introduced in the form of Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization and Indian economy went on from being a closed and planned economy to more of a market driven and mixed economy. Since then, the Indian economy has reached new heights. It is now, the tenth largest economy in the world and if adjusted to purchasing power parity, is the fourth largest. The growth rate of our economy is also third fastest in the world next only to China and Indonesia. But, although showing such high growth, has our country developed at such a pace? The answer to this question is a disheartening “No”. India, still, is very behind in the Human development Index (119, according to 2010 reports) and the economic growth has increased the unequal distribution of wealth in the country. So, the question arises, what went wrong? The primary reason for this can be attributed to corruption. Lets first look at the period when India was a planned economy and followed the principles of Nationalization. All the industries were state controlled and there was a system of “License Raj” during that period. Due to corruption, the industries were operating under losses and the quality of the products was also depreciating due to ignorance of the governing authorities. Adding to that, the vulnerability of foreign enterprises and private companies to venture into the market due to License Raj and corruption were also restricting the investment in the economy. This led to the crisis situation in the late…

    The Indian economy after reporting fairly robust growth of over 9 per cent during 2005-08, moderated to a growth of 6.7 per cent in 2008-09 because of the global financial crisis. Because there was fiscal and monetary space, timely stimulus allowed the economy to recover fairly quickly to a growth of 8.4 per cent in 2009-10 and 2010-11. Since then, however, the fragile global economic recovery and a number of domestic factors have led to a slowdown once again.…

    Economic Reforms of India

    INDIA'S ECONOMIC REFORMSThe reform process in India was initiated with the aim of accelerating the pace of economic growth and eradication of poverty. The process of economic liberalization in India can be traced back to the late 1970s. However, the reform process began in earnest only in July 1991. It was only in 1991 that the Government signaled a systemic shift to a more open economy with greater reliance upon market forces, a larger role for the private sector including foreign investment, and a restructuring of the role of Government.The reforms of the last decade and a half have gone a long way in freeing the domestic economy from the control regime. An important feature of India's reform programme is that it has emphasized gradualism and evolutionary transition rather than rapid restructuring or "shock therapy". This approach was adopted since the reforms were introduced in June 1991 in the wake a balance of payments crisis that was certainly severe. However, it was not a prolonged crisis with a long period of non-performance.The economic reforms initiated in 1991 introduced far-reaching measures, which changed the working and machinery of the economy. These changes were pertinent to the following: * Dominance of the public sector in the industrial activity * Discretionary controls on industrial investment and capacity expansion * Trade and exchange controls * Limited access to foreign investment * Public ownership and regulation of the financial sectorThe reforms have unlocked India's enormous growth potential and unleashed powerful entrepreneurial forces. Since 1991, successive governments, across political parties, have successfully carried forward the country's economic reform agenda.Reforms in Industrial PolicyIndustrial policy was restructured to a great extent and most of the central government industrial controls were dismantled. Massive deregulation of the industrial sector was done in order to bring in the element of…

    The economic liberalisation in India refers to ongoing economic reforms in India that started on 24 July 1991. After Independence in 1947, India adhered to socialist policies. Attempts were made to liberalise economy in 1966 and 1985. The first attempt was reversed in 1967. Thereafter, a stronger version of socialism was adopted. Second major attempt was in 1985 by prime minister Rajeev Gandhi. The process came to a halt in 1987, though 1966 style reversal did not take place. The fruits of liberalisation reached their peak in 2007, when India recorded its highest GDP growth rate of 9%.[7] With this, India became the second fastest growing major economy in the world, next only to China.[8] The growth rate has slowed significantly in the first half of 2012.[9] An…
