The new 19th edition of the widely accepted textbook on Indian Economy for undergraduate students (BA /BCom/Hons) incorporating the latest recommended readings. The book provides a comprehensive coverage of Indian economy under five sections: I. basic issues in economic development: institutional framework and policy regimes; II. growth and distributional issues: poverty, inequality and employment; III. current perspectives in Indian agriculture: growth, productivity, constraints and pricing; IV. industry and services sector; V. financial sector and the external sector. In the present volume, the author has made an effort to keep the language simple without compromising the effectiveness of the argument or diluting the analyses. The book also carries a comprehensive glossary. Apart from undergraduate students, the book is widely used by students preparing for the IAS and other competitive examinations.
