"The publication estimated the impact of reforms in the manufacturing sector, concluding that tariff liberalization and export promotion had played an important role in pushing manufacturing growth from 5 per cent in previous decades to 8 per cent in the 2000s. That had eased the import compression witnessed during the previous decade and had made it easier for exporters to obtain inputs and intermediates at competitive prices from global sources. Nevertheless, the role of domestic demand in the growth of this sector could not be ignored, since India's per capita income had -- for the first time -- risen above 5 per cent per year."--Provided by publisher.

Why was liberalization important for India? What was its effect on sectors like IT, banking, telecom, etc.? How did it help Indian entrepreneurs build international businesses? And where do we go from here? The Liberalization Story is a selection of essays which explain the most important financial event in modern Indian history and its impact. The book contains candid interviews with decision makers like Montek Singh Ahluwalia and entrepreneurs like Sunil Bharti Mittal and Uday Kotak, who give a ringside view of the changing Indian economy. How did we reach here? The book also looks at the present in the context of our past. It tackles some important questions to explain the overall Indian economy today: What led to the rise of private equity; how did the dynamics of family businesses change; how did MNCs conquer the Indian market; how did the Indian middle class change; what led to the digital wave; what led to India leapfrogging to innovation, among many others. A highly readable book which shares a holistic view of the twenty-five years of Indian liberalization.

"As India marks the twenty-year milestone of economic liberalization, some concerns about the country’s future prospects as an emerging power are beginning to be voiced; often, these stem from the past history of sharp swings in India’s fortunes. Bimal Jalan, one of the country’s well-known economists and former Governor of the Reserve Bank of India, has closely followed the path of India’s economic policies across its changing trajectories, from before the time the economy was liberalized to the very present The pieces that appear here were all written during the last twenty years, with the exception of three prescient notes from the mid-1970s highlighting the need for economic reforms to foster growth. The principal thought behind these essays is that, in the past twenty years, India’s capacity to grow faster than ever before has increased substantially because of its comparative advantage in relation to other countries. However, Jalan points out that for India to seize the opportunities that lie ahead, it is essential to bring about further reforms in the running of India’s politics and administration in order to ensure inclusive and incremental economic growth.

This book reviews India's liberalisation measures in the last decade, in cognisance of the impact of the country's World Trade Oraganisation (WTO) membership on the same. The collection of articles by subject experts recognises that the changes mandated by WTO membership are but one of the three-pronged liberlisation measures that the country has been subjected to-in the external, domestic (industrial policies) and financial sectors. The lucid analyses bear out that rather than being WTO-induced, external liberalisation of most sectors has been part of India's general economic reform programme, having been shaped by domestic compulsions. India's Liberalisation Experience: Hostage to the WTO? also analyses how the country has coped with and benefited from its obligations and rights as a WTO member. It attempts to evaluate the impact of the domestic reforms on the country's economy and the implications thereof on its performance as a WTO negotiator. It tries to dispel the myths regarding the impact of international trade negotiations on India's ongoing reform processes and its developmental and poverty/livelihood concerns. Thus, it will appeal not only to WTO experts, but also to trade policy analysts, academicians, research students, policy-makers, scholars and economists.
