Description

The Indian economy is an extraordinary blend of contrasts and convergences. It is a place where high tech

information technology services coexist with informal labor markets, where digital start-ups rise

amid rural agrarian challenges, and where policy reforms must reconcile growth with equity and scale

with sustainability. Capturing this complexity—and making sense of it—is both the challenge and the

purpose of this book. What sets this book apart is its unwavering commitment to data-driven insights. We move beyond theoretical constructs to present the latest statistical evidence, trends, and projections that truly reflect the ground realities of the Indian economy. Through a rich array of graphs, tables, and empirical analyses, you will gain a nuanced appreciation for the scale and complexity of economic phenomena— from macroeconomic indicators to sectoral performance. In short, this is a book that sits at the crossroads of academic rigor, professional relevance, and public discourse.
