Since liberalization, Indian economy is going through some dynamic changes. From a primarily closed agrarian economy, India has become service-oriented open economy, becoming more and more susceptible to economic fluctuations.

This comprehensive book, in its third edition, continues to equip the readers with the necessary skills to assess and analyze the evolving economic scenario in India and world over. The new edition has been thoroughly revised and updated to incorporate the recent changes taking place in Indian and global economic environment. Every chapter is incorporated with a section on Understanding Economic Environment (UEE), in which the Indian economic environment is compared with the economic environment of its neighbouring countries, emerging markets and major players in the world economy.

All chapters are well-supported with illustrative examples and cases to provide an analytical insight to the topics. The chapters also include the topic Implications for Managers, in which implications of a particular aspect of an economy are summarized for the managers. Besides, for an easy assessment of the data, most of the quantitative information is presented in a graphical form rather than in the conventional tabular format.

Designed primarily as a textbook for the postgraduate students of management and commerce, this book is useful for the practising managers and policy makers as well.
