The first section of the annual surveys stock market development and private capital accumulation in the country. The second section contains research papers on a wide range of topics such as labour, fiscal issues, banking and finance, econometrics, computations and mathematical methods, foreign direct investment, income redistribution policy, growing savings rate, skill acquisition with regard to India and the role of finance in business cycles.

This work will hold great value for people involved in the study of Macroeconomics, International Trade, Labour Economics, Public Economics and Econometrics.
