The relative regression of Punjab's economy in the post-economic reforms period and slow current economic growth give cause for concern. The contributions in this book address the question of why the structural transformation of Punjab's economy has fallen into the middle-income trap. Each investigates the policy constraints influencing the relative stagnation of the economy and suggests appropriate measures for alleviating them. By integrating theoretical constructs and new evidence, the authoritative contributions diagnose the nature of the current problems and offer practical solutions. They cover important issues such as the crisis of agrarian transition, agrarian markets and distributive justice, employment growth and transition to non-agriculture sectors, fiscal policy, external factors in economic transformation, and perspectives on rejuvenating the state's economy Nota de contenido: Chapter 1.

Título : Equity Markets in India : Returns, Risk and Price Multiples Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Singh, Shveta ; Jain, P.K ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Yadav, Surendra Singh Editorial: Singapore : Springer Singapore Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: India Studies in Business and Economics, ISSN 2198-0012 Número de páginas: XXVII, 189 p. 16 illus., 8 illus. in color Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-981-10-0868-9 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Finance Risk management Capital market Macroeconomics Markets Macroeconomics/Monetary Economics//Financial Economics Management Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: The book presents a comprehensive view of the Indian equity markets over the past two decades (1994-2014). Equity markets constitute the most important segment of stock exchanges; in fact, the status of equity returns is, by and large, considered as a barometer of the state of a country's economy. Returns earned by the equity investors on their funds invested in equity markets have become a decisive factor in the growth of such markets. In this context, the book discusses all the major aspects of equity returns and also conducts a dis-aggregative analysis based on underlying factors like age, size, ownership structure, industry affiliation/sector, among others, to explain the factors affecting returns and risk. While on the one hand the study ascertains the market rates of return (earned) on equities from the investors' perspective (by including both the capital gains and the dividend income), it also shows how to compute the rates of returns on equities from the corporate perspective (that is, rate of return earned on equity funds). It further assesses the required/expected rate of return and examines the volatility in stock returns, with a focus on its behaviour during the period of the study. It deepens investors' understanding of equity investment, helping them to make more-informed investments. While of interest to the investor community, this book also contributes significantly to the existing literature on market returns and is a valuable reference resource for academics, researchers and market participants, financial institutions and other intermediaries, regulators and policy makers Nota de contenido: Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Rates of Return on Equities: Corporates' perspective -- Chapter 3. Expected Rates of Return on Equity -- Chapter 4.

Título : Micro Irrigation Systems in India : Emergence, Status and Impacts Tipo de documento: documento electrónico Autores: Viswanathan, P. K ; SpringerLink (Online service) ; Kumar, M. Dinesh ; Narayanamoorthy, A Editorial: Singapore : Springer Singapore Fecha de publicación: 2016 Otro editor: Imprint: Springer Colección: India Studies in Business and Economics, ISSN 2198-0012 Número de páginas: XIV, 178 p. 12 illus. in color Il.: online resource ISBN/ISSN/DL: 978-981-10-0348-6 Idioma : Inglés (eng) Palabras clave: Environmental management Water pollution Agricultural economics Economics Waste Technology / Pollution Control Management Aquatic Policy/Water Governance/Water Clasificación: 330 Economía en general Resumen: This book takes stock of micro irrigation systems (MIS), the technological intervention in India's agricultural and water management sectors, over the past couple of decades. Based on empirical research from the major agriculturally dynamic states, viz., Gujarat, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka, the book provides a nuanced understanding and objective assessment of the implementation and adoption of MIS across these states. It addresses several of the questions related to adoption and impacts of MIS in India. On the adoption side, the key question that the book addresses is which segment of the farming community adopts MIS across states? The impacts analysed include those on physical, agronomic and economic aspects. At the macro level, the question being asked is about the future potential of MIS in terms of saving water from agriculture and making more water available for environment. The book also addresses the question of the positive/negative externalities and real social benefits and costs from the use of MIS, a major justification for heavy capital subsidies for its purchase by farmers. It also brings out certain critical concerns pertaining to MIS adoption, which need to be addressed through more empirical research based on longitudinal panel/ cross sectional data. The book would be of great use to researchers (agricultural water management, irrigation economics), students of water resource engineering, irrigation engineering and water resources management, as well as to policy makers and agricultural water management experts - national and international Nota de contenido: Chapter 1. Introduction -- Chapter 2. Water Saving and Yield Enhancing Micro Irrigation Technologies in India: Theory and Practice -- Chapter 3.
