ConclusionConclusion
• Unless steps are taken to prevent damage toUnless steps are taken to prevent damage to existing industries and to promote new ones, manufacturing trade deficit likely to worsen, putting severe strain on India’s BOP
• The claim of positive long term impact on BOP of abolition of Industrial Policy, as a part of Structural Reforms, is questionable.
• Industrial Policy is of vital importance in India today
