Conclusion• Motive of Liberalization• Exports• Technology• Unemployment• Handloom and SSI• No remedial measures• No policy for grassroots level
Banking Sector
Banking Sector• The banking reforms were initiated in the middle of a
“current account” crisis.
• Public deficit of 10 per cent, a current account deficit of 3 per cent, an inflation rate of 10 per cent of GDP.
• It is also triggered by a temporary oil price boom following the Iraqi invasion of Kuwait in 1990.
Major Reforms in the Banking Sector in India, 1992–2002
1. Liberalizing Controls over Commercial Banks• Low interest rates on loans • Reduction in cash reserve requirements • Abolition of the credit authorization scheme
2. Encouraging Competition
• Issue of new licenses to Indian private-sector banks • More liberal licensing of foreign bank branches.
3. Legal Framework
• Securitization and Reconstruction of Financial Assets and Enforcement of SecurityInterest Act of 2002,
Disadvantages of Reforms • NPA of 27 public-sector banks amounted to 24
per cent of total credit.• 15 public-sector banks achieved net profit.• Concentration of power in a few banks.• Lack of innovative decision making.• Public sector banks that perform poorly are
regularly recapitalized rather than weeded out.• Limiting the efficiency of banks is the legal
framework, which makes it very difficult for creditors to enforce their claims.
Performance Analysis – CompetitionSource RBI
• Asset shares of public sector banks have fallen after reforms and those of Indian private sector banks have increased.
• Public sector banks still dominant accounting for three-fourths of industry assets
• In recent years, considerable increase in the share of public sector banks in the industry-wide profit

Future Steps• Further improvements in
– Efficiency– NPL position– Corporate governance norms, especially in cooperative banks– Competition
• Consolidation of the banking system• Bridging legal gaps
Power Sector
The first area opened for private investment:• Electricity sector had virtually no surpluses to
make available for investment• To astern the increase in generating capacity • To improve the system efficiency • To reduce power lost in transmission and distribution
from 35% to 15%• To reduce theft of electricity.• Overcome the corruption
Progress hindrances
• Litigation/renegotiation leading to delays
• Financial arrangements
• Obtaining clearances
• Fuel supply agreements.
Problems faced by the SEBs
• High Return on Equity.
• High capital costs of private plants.
• High tariffs.
• Unfavourable financing
Future Steps• Independent statutory regulators have to be
established to set tariffs.• Tariff rationalization and enforcing penalties for non-
payment of dues.• Cost-effective cogeneration and decentralized
generation.
Agriculture Sector

Scenario
STRENGTHS• Rich Bio-diversity• Arable land• Climate• Strong and well dispersed
research and extension system
OPPORTUNITIES• Bridgeable yield crops• Exports• Agro-based Industry• Horticulture• Untapped potential in the N.E.
WEAKNESS• Fragmentation of land• Low Technology Inputs• Unsustainable Water
Management• Poor Infrastructure• Low value addition
THREATS• Unsustainable Resource Use• Unsustainable Regional
Development• Imports

The First Ever National Agriculture Policy – July 2000The Policy seeks to overcome these constraints and achieve
• A Growth rate in excess of 4 percent per annum in the agriculture sector.
• Growth that is based on efficient use of resources, and conserves our soil, water , and bio diversity.
• Growth with equity, i.e. growth which is widespread across regions, and different classes of farmers.
• Growth that is demand driven and stabilizes domestic markets and maximizes benefits from exports in the face of Global Challenges.
• Growth that is sustainable ,technologically , environmentally, and economically.
India’s Positions in WTO• On 1 January 1995 India joined WTO. Although India
highlighted significance of role of agriculture in their economies and seek to preserve domestic policy flexibility to guard food security concerns but it did not bargain properly in the WTO discussion, while the developed countries secured everything in their favor.

Need for More• Growth of IT/ITES• Growth of organized retail sector• Need for more housing
The Growth OF FDI
Shortcomings• Development at the cost human lives• Unclear terms and terminology• Uncertainties in rehabilitation• No scope for legal recourse• Number of people displaced
Shortage of Houses
