Book excerpt: In this paper, state-level input and output quantity data constructed from the Annual Survey of Industries, for the period 1986-7 through 1995-6 are analysed, to measure levels of technical efficiency for each state, for each of the sample years using the non-parametric method of Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). The resulting information is used to examine (i) whether the post-reform years show any improvement in efficiency compared to the years prior to the reforms and (ii) which of the states have shown the most gain in efficiency. We also measure both Tornqvist and Malmquist indexes of multi-factor productivity for each state for individual years treating the preceding year as the base. This permits us to compare the average annual rates of multi-factor productivity growth before and after the reform. Both measures show that, on average, the annual rate of productivity growth has been higher in the post-reform period than in the pre-reform years. However, some states have actually experienced a slowdown in the productivity growth or even productivity decline after the reforms. Decomposition of the Malmquist productivity index shows that improvement in technical efficiency as well as faster rates of technical progress contributed to the observed acceleration in the growth rate. A subsequent regression shows that there is a tendency towards convergence in productivity growth rates across states.

Book Synopsis Indian Economy: Reforms and Development by : Pradip Kumar Biswas
Download or read book Indian Economy: Reforms and Development written by Pradip Kumar Biswas and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-08-09 with total page 332 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book presents a comprehensive study of the impact of policy reforms on output, employment, and productivity growth across sectors of India since 1991. It showcases varied responses from different sectors as they faced different degrees of policy interventions, and challenges or opportunities as regards markets, technology, and availability of skills and other complementary resources. The book also discusses the contributions of the service sector on India’s GDP and employment. The book throws light on the phenomena of rising inequality and persistent poverty which continues to shadow and be a hallmark of post-reform India, despite high economic growth. It underlines the failure of these reforms to bring about major change in social and economic organizations and institutions. The book’s contents stress on the criticality of addressing these issues as they have a serious potential of jeopardizing the country’s ability to maintain high growth momentum. With these pertinent topics, the book would be of interest not only to the research community, but also to policy makers and practitioners of various sectors addressed here.
Book Synopsis From “Hindu Growth” to Productivity Surge by : Mr.Dani Rodrik
Download or read book From “Hindu Growth” to Productivity Surge written by Mr.Dani Rodrik and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2004-05-01 with total page 44 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper explores the causes of India's productivity surge around 1980, more than a decade before serious economic reforms were initiated. Trade liberalization, expansionary demand, a favorable external environment, and improved agricultural performance did not play a role. We find evidence that the trigger may have been an attitudinal shift by the government in the early 1980s that unlike the reforms of the 1990s, was probusiness rather than promarket in character, favoring the interests of existing businesses rather than new entrants or consumers. A relatively small shift elicited a large productivity response, because India was far away from its income-possibility frontier. Registered manufacturing, which had been built up in previous decades, played an important role in determining which states took advantage of the changed environment.
Book Synopsis Liberalization, Productivity, and Competition by : Vivek Srivastava
Download or read book Liberalization, Productivity, and Competition written by Vivek Srivastava and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 1996 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The empirical evidence linking economic reform in developing countries with gains in productivity and efficiency is both limited and inconclusive. Using large firm-level data collected by the Reserve Bank of India, this book examines the impact of reform on productivity and competition for the Indian manufacturing sector in the eighties. Relying on econometric estimates of pre- and post-reform productivity growth, the study finds evidence of significantly higher productivity growth rates after the mid-eighties both at the aggregate and two-digit sector levels. The author seeks corroborating evidence by developing a framework that enables him to simultaneously estimate economies of scale, a measure of optimal labour utilization and the mark-up of price over marginal cost as an indicator of competitiveness. Though he finds evidence of better labour utilization, there is no indication of reduced market power or any significant departure from constant returns to scale in the post-reform period. He concludes that even the limited reforms of the eighties led to productivity gains which were achieved largely through better resource use.

Book Synopsis Economic Reforms and Total Factor Productivity Growth in the Indian Unorganized Manufacturing Sector by : Rajesh Raj
Download or read book Economic Reforms and Total Factor Productivity Growth in the Indian Unorganized Manufacturing Sector written by Rajesh Raj and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper analyses total factor productivity growth in the unorganized manufacturing sector in India using several rounds of the large scale National Sample Survey state-level data for 15 major Indian states for the period 1978-79 to 2000-01. Data Envelopment Analysis is used to compute Malmquist total factor productivity index and its components. The impact of economic reforms on efficiency is examined. Evidence suggests that total factor productivity registered a positive growth during the period in the country as a whole. Most states in the country witnessed higher total factor productivity growth in the post 1990s reform period than in the pre-reform years. Decomposition of the Malmquist productivity index shows that improvement in technical efficiency rather than technical progress had contributed to the observed acceleration in the growth rate. Technological regress was observed which has continued at a decelerated rate in the reforms period. Econometric analysis of the determinants of total factor productivity growth indicates tendency towards convergence in the productivity growth rate across the Indian states.

Book Synopsis J-Curve of Productivity and Growth by : Mr.Arvind Virmani
Download or read book J-Curve of Productivity and Growth written by Mr.Arvind Virmani and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2011-07-01 with total page 35 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most estimates of Indian manufacturing productivity find a slowdown in the 1990s. This has puzzled analysts, given that 1990s reforms were deeper and wider than the 1980s reforms that raised the growth rate of the Indian economy by 2 per cent points. This paper tests the hypothesis of the J curve of Productivity and Growth following major liberalization and finds it to be broadly supported by the data: Technological obsolescence, gradual adoption of new technology and learning by doing result in negative effects on measured productivity.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lost Glory: India's Capitalism Story deconstructs India's industrialization story, challenging contemporary ideas about her economy. Based on careful and detailed empirical analyses of India's industrialization, for a period of almost seven decades, the book provides deeply-nuanced depictions of the history of political economy, that have affected India's industrialization over the course of a century. These dimensions of India's economic history have never before been collated and presented. The presentation takes readers on a definitive evidence-based survey of India's industrial landscape. It includes a detailed historical description of the intellectual origins of India's modern industrialization, anchored in a privileged view of economic policy making. Grounded in deep historical and political analyses, that account for the variations, continuities, and changes in institutional contingencies, the facts derived on India's long-term economic performance are used to put the record straight. The findings of the book will transform debate, and set the agenda for thoughtfully assessing what course the Indian economy needs to follow.

Book Synopsis Productivity Trends in India's Manufacturing Sectors in the Last Two Decades by : Mr.Bulent Unel
Download or read book Productivity Trends in India's Manufacturing Sectors in the Last Two Decades written by Mr.Bulent Unel and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2003-01-01 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starting in the late 1970s, the Indian authorities implemented a series of reforms aimed at exposing the economy to greater competition and at liberalizing key aspects of economic activity. This paper investigates productivity trends in India's (registered) manufacturing sectors during the 1980s and 1990s. The main findings of the paper are (i) labor and total factor productivity (TFP) growth in total manufacturing and many of the component sectors since 1980 were markedly higher than that in the preceding two decades, although the extent of the acceleration in TFP growth depends critically on the underlying assumptions about factor elasticities and the assumed structure of the production function; (ii) productivity growth for total manufacturing as well as for many subsectors picked up further after the 1991 reforms; and (iii) classification of the best performing sectors and the weakest performing sectors, based on comparative TFP, remains robust to changes in underlying assumptions.

Book Synopsis Economic Reform and Total Factor Productivity Growth in Indian Manufacturing Industries by : Sangho Kim
Download or read book Economic Reform and Total Factor Productivity Growth in Indian Manufacturing Industries written by Sangho Kim and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stochastic frontier production function model is applied to Indian manufacturing industries, to decompose the sources of total factor productivity growth into technical progress, technical efficiency, scale efficiency, and allocative efficiency. Empirical results based on data from 2000 to 2006 suggest that increased investment needs time to deliver increased productivity and efficiency, because new technology combined with fresh investment requires higher numbers of skilled workers, better managerial practices and an advanced input mix, all of which generally take time to develop. Thus, the Indian economy must boost technical efficiency by providing skilled workers and high quality managers to further economic reform.
