Economic reforms in India V.1

The economic reforms that began in India in 1991 heralded a major change in economic conditions in India that have affected its whole social fabric and changed the entire way in which its economy performs. At first, these reforms were limited to the macroeconomic sphere but later they spread to the microeconomic or industrial structure of the Indian Economy. The full extent and consequences of these reforms are not as yet widely appreciated. In fact every facet of Indian socio-economic structure is being affected through all pervasive economic reforms.

About forty eminent scholars from various backgrounds have contributed in this book. The book is divided into two volumes and three parts. Volume one has Part A, which has Economy, Banking, Finance, Fiscal Reforms, IT, Power Sector Reforms, Agricultural Reforms etc. as its central theme.
