  The development pattern of India during 1950-80 was characterised by strong centralised planning, government ownership of basic and key industries, excessive regulation and control of private enterprise, trade protectionism through tariff and non-tariff barriers and a cautious and selective approach towards foreign capital. It was quota, permit and license regime guided and controlled by a bureaucracy trained in colonial style. This socalled inward-looking, import substitution strategy of economic development began to be widely questioned with the beginning of 1980s. Policy makers started realising the drawbacks of this strategy which inhibited competitiveness and efficiency and produced a much lower rate of growth than expected.

Consequently, economic reforms were set in motion, though on a modest scale, when controls on industries were reduced by the 1985 industrial policy. The economic reforms programme got a big boost when the Government announced a new industrial policy in the Indian Parliament on July 24, 1991. Since then, it is liberalisation, privatisation and globalisation all the way and the process is underway. In the new liberalised industrial and trade environment, the Government is progressively assuming the role of a promoter, facilitator and catalytic agent instead of a regulator and controller of economic activities. India is now Asia?s third largest economy and has the world?s fourth largest foreign exchange reserves. Technology, competition, and benchmarking to the best international practices are the driving forces of India?s development efforts. Technology is getting upgraded rapidly and competition in the market place has become fierce. The vibrant information technology (IT) industry is contributing immensely by providing information about latest technology and international business practices. India?s gradual and cautious approach to economic reforms has proved well-founded and the country is placed on a firm footing for future forays into domestic and global economic activities.

This book provides a comprehensive description and analysis of economic policies, strategies, challenges and achievements in various sectors of the Indian economy over the years.

Part I provides a sector-wise review of developments in the Indian economy since Independence in 1947.

Part II presents year-wise review (1947-48 to 2010-11) of developments in the following sectors of the Indian economy: Agriculture and Rural Development ? Industry and Infrastructure ? Government Finances ? Money, Credit and Prices ? Financial Institutions and Financial Markets, ForeignTrade, Balance of Payments and Foreign Investment.
