INDIA AFTER INDEPENDENCEChapter One
- Nehru, 1st Prime Minister of India
“Long years ago we made a tryst with destiny, and now the time comes when we shall redeem our pledge. The achievement
we celebrate today is but a step, an opening of opportunity, to the great triumph and
achievements that await us.”

ECONOMIC SYSTEM
INDIA’S 1ST & 2ND FIVE YEAR PLAN
Raise domestic savings for growth
1st Plan 2nd Plan
Help the economy resurrect from colonial rule
Created by the Planning Commission
1951 - 1956 1957 - 1961
Implementation of Industrial Strategy
Development of heavy industries and supported dominant role from the public sector
1. Encourage small scale industry
6. Reducing income inequality3. Reducing foreign dominance
4. Building indigenous capacity
2. National self-reliance 5. High growth rate
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
INDIA’S FIFTH FIVE YEAR PLAN
1974-1979“To accelerate the process of production with a mild v e r s i o n o f e c o n o m i c liberalization that was started in 1980s”
Establishment of 3 Committees:
1. Narsimhan Committee: Fiscal Policy
2. Sengupta Committee: Public Sector
3. Hussain Committee: Trade Policy
Delicensing Activity:
1. 32 industry groups were delicensed without any investment limit
2. Entry into the industrial sector was made easier
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
FAILURE IN THE PLANNING PROCESS (PLANNED VS REALITY)
Lowest Rates of Growth Rising Public Deficit
High Growth High Public Savings
India’s average growth rate
was less than 4% in
comparison to 5.2% per
annum in other developing
countries between
1950-1990
Total public sector
borrowings averaged
4.4% of GDP in 1960-1975
6% of GDP in 1980
9% of GDP in 1990.
High Degree of Self-Reliance
Balance of Payment Crisis
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
WHY IT FAILED?
Failure in the Generation of Public Savings
No Social Improvements; Literacy, Education and Healthcare
Public sector-instead of being a generator of savings for the community’s good, became a consumer of community’s savings. As a result, the government needs to borrow to meet its own expenditure and public sector deficits and investments.
The people wasn’t equipped with education and literacy rate to support growth. Hence, the massive development plan mostly failed, as suggested by Indian leading economist, Amartya Sen.
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
THE BHAGWATI-SEN DEBATE
Amartya Sen Professor, Economics & Philosophy at Harvard University
Jagdish Bhagwati Economics & Law Professor at Columbia University
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
DEBATE ON PATHWAY TO DEVELOPMENT
Amartya SenJ. BhagwatiPrioritizes on accelerated growth
Generation of investments
Higher growth rate
Social improvement and reduction in poverty
Focuses on literacy, education and social improvement
Economics as a discipline has moved away from values of freedom to the
creation of income and wealth
Social opportunities is the main element in the development
process
ECONOMIC SYSTEM
6 CHARACTERISTICS OF INDIA AFTER INDEPENDENCESelf-Sufficiency Resources Management Private Sector Control
Incentive for Small Scale Firms
Labor Protection Prioritizes Tertiary Education
As a country emerging from colonialism, this was important to be
achieved. India wants to avoid dependance
on imports.
To ensure that investible resources were channeled to
the “right industries”
Investment licensing, Import licensing,
controls on the use of FX, credit allocation &
prices
Access to credit, tax concessions, subsidized
interest rates and preferential treatment
in government procurement.
Compulsory for firms (with >300 workers) to seek the permission of
governments for dismissing workers.
India invests greater on tertiary education
than on primary education, up until
the year 2000.

DETERMINANTS OF INDIA’S ECONOMIC GROWTH
1. Changing Attitudes
2. Foreign Direct Investment
The government’s attitude shifted from a centrally-planned government to decentralized & public sector-focused to private sector-focused. This stimulates entrepreneurship and expansion of the private sector.
Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) grew exponentially after the economic reforms in 1991 and until today India is one of the top destinations for FDI in the world.

2. Regulatory Reforms: Issues of transparency
3. Removal of FDI Restrictions: India’s FDI restriction is higher than of Republic of Korea.
4. Boosting service sector education and employment
5. Taxes and Subsidies: Corporate taxes in India is 30-40%, compared to 17% in Singapore and 25% in China.
6. Access and Availability of Infrastructures: Government invests to low on public infrastructures

CONCLUSION & KEY TAKEAWAYSEconomic
Liberalization is KeyNext Economic
PowerhouseAgriculture-Service Shift
Sen vs Bhagwati IlliteracySocio-Economic
Challenges
Liberalization is the main reason that caused India
to “take-off”
Major institution has predicted that India
will be the fastest growing economy
until 2050.
India skipped the utilisation of the
manufacturing sector and moved to services
straight away.
Debate on stimulating growth from social
improvement first, or high economic growth
India’s literacy is far below other developing
countries, with only approximately 74%
Poverty, infrastructure, rural opportunities,
income gap remains key issue for India
