Description
It is widely believed that the Indian economy witnessed near stagnation in real GDP growth from Independence till the late 1970s. Challenging this notion, the collection of papers and speeches in this volume provides fresh perspectives on India's growth experience from Independence to the recent global financial crisis. This volume documents how the conduct of Indian monetary and financial policy has been unorthodox by the standards of extant international conventional wisdom, but appropriate to the macroeconomic and structural conditions prevailing in India.
With a focus on growth drivers and financial stability, the volume deals with a wide-range of issues: growth of manufacturing and service sectors, role of policies (monetary, fiscal, financial market and sector, external sector), urban infrastructure investment, public service delivery, role of central banks, and the interaction between international finance and monetary policy. Drawing upon the post-reform experience and the global crisis, the volume takes stock of current challenges and suggests strategies to sustain long-term double-digit growth rates.

Review
"Rakesh Mohan's Growth with Financial Stability offers a balanced analysis of the monetary and financial policies followed by the RBI and the government, particularly in the post-reform period and during the recent global financial crisis. It also gives a good exposition of RBI's way of thinking as the author was part of the establishment when these policies were formulated and implemented. This volume is essential reading for students, researchers and policy-makers, and all those interested in monetary and financial policies and economic growth." - ASCI Journal of Management
