Extensive information on key Indian industries is presented using ten select sectors-tea, tobacco, textiles, fertilizers, pharmaceuticals, steel, computer hardware, electronics, auto components, an banking-as case studies. The contributors provide a theoretical framework, encompassing strategic as well as economic factors, to analyse the differing performance of individual industries in the first phase of reforms.

Combining quantitative tools with qualitative analysis, the contributors examine:

The organizational framework of each industry

Market behaviour and performance of leading firms in the sector

Monopolistic or Oligopolistic trends

Product composition

Government policies and incentives, especially for exports, and their consequences

Performance and share in inernational trade, and
