Industrial economy of India

Industry is the most vital sector of economic development. No country could think of uplifting the lot of its people without resorting to overall development and growth of this vital sector. Even in the underdeveloped countries like India, there is no question of any competition with agricultural development. Agriculture, though, the main stay of the people cannot march ahead on the roads of development without being substantiated properly by other sectors more specially the secondary sector. Hence in the process of economic planning the place of industry has to be so carved out that it continues to augment the process of growth and welfare without in any way be competitive to other sectors of economy.

The present study is the latest book on the industrial development of our country. It seeks to analyse different aspects of industrial economy with a view to provide an in-depth knowledge of the subject-matter on the one hand and to make suitable suggestions to accelerate the pace of industrial development on the other.
The book has been written in the light of the shadows and sunlight of the former government and the perspective of the plans and policies of the present government. Some of topics of current value such as Industrial Policy, Bonus Policy, Industrial Relations, Productivity etc. may be of special interest to all those who are committed to industrialise the country on sound footing.
