Summary, etc. In this study the investigation has primarily focused on assessing the interrelationships between the industrial structure of the male working population of class I cities of India as obtained from the censuses of 1961 and 1971, urbanward migration into them in the period 1961-71 and the relative concentration or distribution of capital investments in those cities' 'in a particular year, 1971. Of these three elements, if the first one is considered as providing a spatial structure, then the latter two may be treated as elements of spatial flow although the third element is strictly stock at a particular point of time. The primary objective of the analytic design presented is to determine the degree of interdependence between the spatial structure and spatial flow. <br/>This study may justifiably claim to be the first of its kind to examine the relationships between population growth of the principal cities of India on the one hand and on the other: (a) the industrial structure of their working population; (b) the inflow of migrants into them over a decade; (c) the stock of investment of capital in all registered establishments in• the organised industrial sector of each city in the terminal year of the decade; and (d) the sum of all workers employed in the registered industrial establishments in the organised industrial sector of each city during 1970-71. <br/><br/> The principal reason for this study was the need to strike a new approach to the problem of demographic growth of cities, the need to depart from mere statistical and geographical interpretation of census numbers and to turn attention to possible interrelationships between urban growth and economic enterprise. <br/>; <br/>The second major reason was to underline the urgency of routinely generating and widely disseminating new kinds of data over many more areas than have hitherto been done by the Census of Manufacturing Industries or the Annual Survey of Industries or what is proposed by the Census of Small Industries. Unless new al kinds of data are continuously made available of on a more dis aggregated scale, the study of In growth of Indian Cities will always remain at a sad disadvantage. <br/>This study therefore claims to be primarily a tour de force in breaking new ground. What has been attempted is a new conceptual approach matched by a new design and methodology urging the development of new kinds of data to cope with the problem of explaining demographic movement in a variety of interacting relationShips. <br/>The study reveals several significant relationships between the economic structure of Indian cities, capital flows and urbanward migration streams which deserve further investigation for purposes of regional balance and urban policy
