Summary: This unique book brings together the views of both companies abroad that have sold technology and firms in India that have bought it. It reports on what foreign companies think of the Indian market for technology, of Indian firms' practices and of India's policies; it also reports on how Indian companies decide on import of technology and how far they benefit from it. In this book: Ashok Desai shows how India's industrial structure differs from the structure in industrial countries, and how the proliferation of small firms leads to a fragmentation of the Indian demand for technology and cuts down the benefits of technology imports. Martin Bell and Don Scott-Kemmis wonder whether a commercial and shortsighted approach to technology imports leads Indian firms to miss opportunities of growth and exports.
