Item India�s Merchandise Exports to Asia: A Constant Market Share Analysis(Sage Publications India Pvt. Ltd, 2022-02-08T00:00:00) Fayaz, Mohd; Kaur, SandeepThe present study attempts to examine the structural changes in Indian merchandise exports to Asia during the period 1980�2016 by using Constant Market Share (CMS) analysis. The index values of the CMS analysis suggest that India has mostly maintained and strengthened its export market share primarily in resource-based and low tech/labour-intensive products. Major technology-intensive exports include organic chemicals and dyes and colouring materials to all its export destinations in Asia. The market effect result shows a positive impact on India�s export performance which suggests that India has diversified its exports to South Asia, Southeast Asia and West and Central Asia. However, market adaptation effect result shows negative impact in East Asian market which means that India is lacking in adapting the import structure of this market.

However, for the invention of new techniques and skills, there is a great need to invest on R&D, requires a huge amount of capital, which can be available through FDI inflows. Technology has been imported in heavy amount after the implementation of liberalization policies. Therefore, the present study intends to know whether FDI contributes to the Indian manufacturing sector through R&D or not. The average growth of the manufacturing sector in India (7.93 per cent) has been found considerably higher during the second decade of reforms (2001-2012) as compared to first decade reforms (1991-2000). In the context of this, the present study has tried to examine the trends and patterns of FDI and R&D in manufacturing firms of India during the second decade of reforms (2001-12) and also, to analyze the impact of FDI and exports on R&D in manufacturing firms of India through fixed effect model. The results suggest that R&D has been significantly impacted by the import of capital goods, foreign equity, disembodied technology, and export intensity during the second decade of liberalization period. The present study suggests that greater approvals for foreign capital inflows are required in India, for enhancing the R&D in the manufacturing sector. There must be an appropriate coordination between public and private sector, which can improve the R&D expenditure of manufacturing firms of India.Item India’s Trade with Central Asia: Trends and Prospects(IACD- Institute of Asian Culture and Development, 2011) Kaur, SandeepAlthough the countries of Central Asia have been integrated in the global economy, their economic relations with India have been declined significantly. India’s BOT with all Central Asian countries (except Uzbekistan) had been favourable during 1993- 2009. Indian exports as well as imports from Central Asia are highly concentrated around few commodities during same period. Moreover, the Central Asia’s role in selected Indian exports as well as imports was not so strong and in fact negligible. There has been found very low trade of India with Central Asian countries. This is due to many reasons but lack of economic and financial sector reforms in some of these countries is one of the basic reasons. The other factors of this low trade are lack of direct transport links, poor infrastructure, inadequate banking facilities and tax structure, competition by Russia, China and USA etc. India can increase trade relations with Central Asia and also can play a multi- dimensional role in the development of these former Soviet Republics. Recently these economies have grown up; therefore good economic relations of India with Central Asia can boost their trade.
