Impact of Globalization on Indian Economy- an Overview

India the world's seventh largest country and the second most populace nation has been a destination of unrealized potential. In the recent past it has seen as stir of economic activity changing the prim face of the nation. The country has had breath taking reforms bringing in foreign direct investments and foreign institutional investments into the country at a brisk pace. Today India is one of the most exciting emerging markets in the world to be in. A new

In the early 1990s, there was economic growth due to industrial deregulation and reduced controls on foreign trade and investment (“Central Intelligence Agency”). India is similar to Iran in this way because Iran also worked to make economic changes in the 1990s. Both reduced how much control and power each government had within their economies; for Iran it was subsidies and for India it was reducing controls on foreign trade. India’s economy has also undergone privatization of what were once

​The third advantage of modernization is the rapid growth of china’s manufacturing capacity in the last 20 years. This growth is as a result of a combination of political and social transformation that happened between 1948 and 1979. Though the social costs of this transformation were high, the resulting benefits were worth the efforts. This enabled China to grow at a faster rate economically than many countries that stuck to traditional methods (Hewitt 30). For example, in the year 1980, China and India were at the same economic level in terms of Gross Domestic Product and Per Capita Income. India’s economic development approach was focused on preserving the country’s tradition and heritage. This slowed down the country’s economic growth because the policy

The impact that globalization has and will have on the U.S economy continues to be one of the most debated economic issues of our times. Many people believe that due to the international trade there are less jobs and lower wages for people. International trade is important to the America economy, and to the economy of the world as whole, because neither the United States nor any other country in the world has everything that its people need and want. Globalization and international trade, come with a brighter view of the international trade and it has positive impact on economic growth of the United States.

Indian economy had witnessed many key policy changes in early 1990s. The new economic transformation, popularly known as, Liberalization, Privatization and Globalization (LPG model) meant for making the Indian economy as fastest rising economy and globally competitive. The chain of improvement undertaken related to industrial sector, trade as well as financial sector aimed at making the economy more efficient. With the inception of reforms to open the Indian economy in July of 1991, a new episode has been started for India and its billion plus population. This period of economic evolution has had a remarkable impact on the on the whole economic development of almost all key sectors of the economy, and its effects over the last decade can hardly

Globalisation is the process of the globe interconnecting through integration of communication, trade, investments and production in the global market. The development of Technology through the industrial revolution, is one the most significant factors behind globalisation. Globalisations removes the limits to business, the trade of goods and services worldwide. This allows business cooperation’s to expand in foreign markets. Global trade is a powerful force that has been made possible through the process of globalisation, and has opened up the gates to the global economy. There are many advantages and disadvantages to the ‘good’ force of globalisation. It has developed the economy to a global scale and given nations the opportunity to

There are many factors involved when a company makes a strategic choice to enter into a new market. These factors include strategic market position, resource availability, human capital, as well as financial gains and efficiencies. For General Electric Healthcare (GEH), the strategy was clear: “...to revolutionize the world’s health by improving the quality, access and affordability of care.“ (GE Healthcare, n.d.) For GEH, the position that they needed was clear, to find a cost effective way to meet their goal. And their choice was to expand their operations into India and China. Specifically, according to Kumar (2012), India is on the brink of an innovation boom where many companies like GEH are establishing operations due to the influx of talented human capital.

In 1991, when Prime Minister Narasimha Rao agreed to take a loan from the International Monetary Fund to stave off a financial crisis we witnessed the low-point of the Indian economy. At that time, the country had dwindling foreign exchange reserves and was months away from defaulting on its debts. As part of the I.M.F. package, the government passed reforms such as devaluing the rupee, encouraging private sector competition, and deregulating the economy after 40 years of central planning. By opting for market-oriented reforms in 1991, India’s GDP has grown at a rate of 6.6% annually over the past 20 years. As a rapidly emerging economy and a member of the BRICS, we must continue to push our strategy of export led

Globalization is a trend that is taking more and more effective in the construction industry worldwide included in growing economies. This particular trend is leading the industry in major cases, but because the construction industry also covers a leading number of issues this attractive trend negatively impact developing economies in several ways. First issue raised is the one related to the capacity of local institutions to follow the regulation practically imposed by globalization. In fact the projects that are require the socio-economic development seems to be beyond the ability of the industry in developed countries to compete successfully. In most cases the project dimension, new technology involved as well as management skills are yet to be mastered in some regions as a results countries willing to perform on a global level are forced to import some action related to the construction project itself. Raftery et al (1998) identifies three trends in globalization when it comes to construction. The first identified trend was related to the involvement of the private sector of organizations in the industry, the second trend was a vertical procedure integration, which is increasing in large scale infrastructure projects, a growing number of international or foreign participation in project teams. These trends were attributed to “the globalisation and deregulation of markets necessitated by fiscal, technological and managerial constraints” from the same

The economic system that developed in India after 1947 was a mixed economy characterized by a large number of state-owned enterprises, centralized planning, and subsidies. In 1991, India’s government embarked on an ambitious economic reform program. Much of the industrial licensing system was dismantled, and several areas once closed to the private sector were opened. In addition, investment by foreign companies was welcomed, and plans to start privatizing state-owned businesses were announced. India has posted impressive gains since 1991, however there are still impediments to further transformation. Attempts to reduce import tariffs have been stalled by political opposition from employers, employees, and politicians. Moreover, the privatization program has been slowed thanks to actions taken by the Supreme Court. Finally, extreme poverty continues to plague the country

When we think of a country’s economy the first thing that comes to mind is how successful a country is, and how successful a country is determines its status as a global power. One of the tools used to measure a country’s economy is call Gross Domestic Product (GDP). GDP can be defined as the value all the goods and services produced within a country within a given period of times, such as a financial quarter or a year. Over the years we have seen an increase in globalization, which is the integration between companies and governments of different countries, which has lead to an increased international trade. As a result of globalization countries can produce more because they are more markets for their products, which in returns adds to GDP. One of the engines of globalization is the transportation and logistics industry, and this industry is considered an engine because without the industry globalization would not be possible. Today with globalization companies can set up factories in low income countries across the world like China and India, and sell the their finish product in the united states making huge profits. Maximizing the profits of companies depends on good transportation and logistics management, because when these products are finish they have to be transported to the United States. Goods can be transported in many different modes of transportation, the most popular mode for international trade are ships, because they are more economical, but airplanes,

The New Zealand Government has made significant changes to the economy throughout the last 15 years. The operation and organisation of business activity in New Zealand has been affected by this changing economy. All aspects of the New Zealand Government have been altered. The reason for this change was to improve the performance by being more efficient. The key reforms are privatisation and corporatisation of State Owned Enterprises (SOEs) and restructuring government agencies.

Economic Globalization has swept across the world since the end of WWII. Slowly but surely all the nations across the world have been impacted by Economic Globalization. India for example, has been one of the countries that has been recently hit by the storm, and India’s economy can be seen to still be shooting up. In my paper I will be discussing the Economic Globalization of India, the roots of the globalization to occur, the effects it had and the negative effects it had. Effects such as foreign trade, economic growth and GDP (Gross Domestic Product). From the mid 90’s to current times India sees the effects of globalization, bringing India into one of the top countries in the world in terms of GDP being ranked at 10th in the world.
