Download or read book 2017 18 Social Accounting Matrix for India written by Pal, Barun Deb and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on 2020-12-05 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this document is to provide Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) database for Indian Economy for the year 2017-18. This SAM accounts 112 sectors of Indian economy of which 39 sectors are accounted for agriculture and allied activities, 18 sectors are related to agriculture based processing activities, 4 mining sectors, 24 manufacturing sectors other than agro-processing, 3 sectors related to utilities, 1 construction sector and 23 service sectors including transport and trade. The primary factor input has been classified into 8 types of labor, 4 types of capital and one category of land. The categorization of labor is based on the level of education of the workers and geographical location i.e. rural and urban. The 4 types of capital are; crop, live animal, mining and other financial capital. This SAM distinguishes households into three broad categories like, rural farm households, rural non-farm households and urban households. Households are further disaggregated into per capita expenditure quintiles. Therefore, this database is useful for the scholars and policy makers who are interested to work on macroeconomic policy analysis for Indian economy.

Download or read book Compilation of an Input Output Table and Social Accounting Matrix for India written by Anuradha Venkatesh and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main objective of this paper is to contribute to India's macroeconomic database of Input- Output Tables (IOTs) and Social Accounting Matrices (SAMs). The Central Statistics Office (CSO) of the Government of India has been regularly publishing IOTs since the 1960s. The latest table was published in 2012 for the reference year 2007-08. Although a Supply and Use Table (SUT) is available for 2012-13, a corresponding IOT has not been presented thus far. Given the significance of these databases in understanding complex inter-relationships within economies, it is imperative that they are regularly made available to practitioners in the field. Therefore, to maintain continuity, this paper proposes to transform the SUTs into a symmetric I-O flow matrix. A 140 x 140 commodity matrix will comprise a uniquely detailed database, useful to practitioners and policy makers alike. We also propose to compile satellite accounts based on the new I-O table. Since the government has not published such matrices for several years, we develop a methodology to undertake their construction. In addition, this study seeks to enrich India's anthology of SAMs by constructing a dis-aggregated matrix of 140 sectors for the Indian economy. Such an extensive database can be used for I-O, SAM and computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling of energy, employment and climate policies for India.

Download or read book Fiscal Control of Pollution written by Rajat Verma and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-07-08 with total page 314 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume analyses the process and structure of ecotaxes in India to bring forth its rationale, application and incidence on emerging environmental problems on the backdrop of the environmental issues confronted by the Indian economy. Being at infant stage in India, the concept of ecotaxes is plagued with large empirical difficulties. This book provides a holistic understanding of the complexities in the design and implementation of these fiscal instruments at the country level. After elaborating on the theory, history of its applications, the book provides an innovative methodological exercise. It examines the adequacy and relevance of ecotaxation in the Indian context, along with ensuring that the distortions due to the proposed levy are minimised. The incidence of these taxes on the households, the double dividend hypothesis and the effect on competitiveness of the producer are a few of the core themes elaborated upon in this book. This is demonstrated through a linear general equilibrium framework of Environmentally extended Social Accounting Matrix (E-SAM). The book provides material for the researchers and graduate students on the methodological structure of eco-taxes. The proposed methodological intervention could be utilised by the researchers who wish to analyse the macroeconomic impact of any tax through the framework of Social Accounting Matrix (SAM). Additionally, the process as well as the implications and nuances provided in the book will assist the policy makers to design innovative policies for dealing with environmental issues. The volume also has something for the practitioners by helping them comprehend various effects of these instruments on different stake holders of the economy and thus will be useful as a policy prescription. The three policy scenarios analysed in this study could be considered by the policymakers while attempting to design these instruments in the Indian context and thus ending the extensive reliance on the age old and grossly ineffective Command and Control (CAC) Policies.

Download or read book Applications of the Input Output Framework written by Kakali Mukhopadhyay and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides a fresh perspective on the ever-growing relevance of input-output analysis in problem solving. It is based on the “19th National Conference of the Input-Output Research Association of India (IORA)”, held in 2017 in Mumbai, India. The conference promoted the exchange of ideas on input-output analysis and related methods among economists, government officials, policymakers, academicians and industrialists. The book captures the unique ideas of prominent scholars, extends the basic “input-output framework,” analytical tool, outlines the possible impacts of some major policy decisions adopted by the Government of India, and puts forward concrete policy suggestions. In addition, it highlights the versatility of the Leontief model, which is currently being extended to cover a diverse spectrum of policy issues, ranging from agricultural productivity to science and technology and from carbon hotspots to energy and environmental consequences. A perfect blend of theory and application, the book provides a realistic outlook on sensitive economies and interdependencies between sectors.

Download or read book Industry Led Growth written by Arup Mitra and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-11-18 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book explores, for India and other developing countries, the potential role the organized manufacturing sector could play as an engine of growth. Alongside growth, can this sector generate adequate employment opportunities to facilitate the transfer of labour from the agriculture sector? The book identifies the major constraints that result in limited demand for labour in the organised manufacturing sector. Beyond technological aspects, skill shortage is an important factor, resulting in sluggish labour absorption. Further, the labour market laws are not necessarily the root cause of sluggish employment growth in the organised manufacturing sector. The development of technologies that are appropriate for labour surplus countries like India is instrumental to employment creation. Though innovation is generally assumed to be capital-intensive in nature, the book argues that innovation nevertheless has a positive effect on employment in absolute terms. Lastly, the main policy issues are highlighted in terms of the priority that should be assigned to industries which can contribute to employment growth and skill formation for improving the employability of the available labour force, and to which innovations should be pursued, with a specific focus on pro-poor growth objectives.

Download or read book Handbook of Climate Change and India written by Navroz Dubash and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-03-15 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do policymakers, businesses and civil society in India approach the challenge of climate change? What do they believe global climate negotiations will achieve and how? And how are Indian political and policy debates internalizing climate change? Relatively little is known globally about internal climate debate in emerging industrializing countries, but what happens in rapidly growing economies like India’s will increasingly shape global climate change outcomes. This Handbook brings together prominent voices from India, including policymakers, politicians, business leaders, civil society activists and academics, to build a composite picture of contemporary Indian climate politics and policy. One section lays out the range of positions and substantive issues that shape Indian views on global climate negotiations. Another delves into national politics around climate change. A third looks at how climate change is beginning to be internalized in sectoral policy discussions over energy, urbanization, water, and forests. The volume is introduced by an essay that lays out the critical issues shaping climate politics in India, and its implications for global politics. The papers show that, within India, climate change is approached primarily as a developmental challenge and is marked by efforts to explore how multiple objectives of development, equity and climate mitigation can simultaneously be met. In addition, Indian perspectives on climate negotiations are in a state of flux. Considerations of equity across countries and a focus on the primary responsibility for action of wealthy countries continue to be central, but there are growing voices of concern on the impacts of climate change on India. How domestic debates over climate governance are resolved in the coming years, and the evolution of India’s global negotiation stance are likely to be important inputs toward creating shared understandings across countries in the years ahead, and identify ways forward. This volume on the Indian experience with climate change and development is a valuable contribution to both purposes.

Download or read book GHG Emissions and Economic Growth written by Barun Deb Pal and published by Springer. This book was released on 2014-09-24 with total page 199 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Issues linking climate change and economic growth are now at the centre of discussions regarding development strategies especially in the context of developing countries. This book contributes by analyzing the relationship between economic growth and GHG emissions in India with explicit reference to all major economic sectors. One of the most popular tools for macroeconomic policy analysis is Social Accounting Matrix (SAM). The book presents the methods and estimates of the latest Social Accounting Matrix (SAM) for India, which provides a major data base describing the complete circular flow of income and input-output transactions among the sectors of the economy. The novelty of the book lies in the fact that for the first time a SAM has been prepared for the Indian economy with environmental indicators. A detailed methodology for constructing such an extended SAM is also presented in the book. The environmental social accounting matrix (ESAM) based analysis has been included to show direct and indirect links between economic growth and GHG emissions. The book also includes analysis of factors affecting historical GHG emissions trends in India. The book goes beyond SAM and applies computable general equilibrium (CGE) modelling to derive climate-change policy analysis and simulations. This CGE-based analysis is an important contribution to the current debate surrounding carbon tax and its possible impact on macroeconomic growth.

Download or read book Economic Evaluation of the Diamer Basha Dam written by Robinson, Sherman and published by Intl Food Policy Res Inst. This book was released on with total page 15 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This paper describes the potential impact on the economy of Pakistan of building the Diamer-Basha dam. An integrated system of economic and water simulation models is applied to Pakistan to analyze the economywide impacts of changes in water resources in the Indus river basin, focusing on agricultural and hydropower benefits provided by the Diamer-Basha dam under different climate scenarios. The model framework links separate economic and water models, drawing on the strengths of both approaches without having to compromise by specifying either a simplified treatment of water in an economic model or simplified economics in a water model. The model system is used to simulate the impact of economic growth and changes in water resources over the long run, focusing on agriculture and hydropower. The results of scenario analysis indicate that the Diamer-Basha dam would improve the resilience of Pakistan to adapt to climate shocks, providing increased hydropower capacity and enhanced ability to manage the water system to offset climate-induced variation in river flows.
