Externality of Economic Reforms
Externality of Economic Reforms
An Empirical Analysis
In 1991
Data on Population: 88.89 crores
Data on Govt Expenditure: 176548 crores
Data on Inflation: 13.7 percent
Results: The paper finds that the 1991 reforms
have had positive externalities on India's economy
in terms of increased private investment and
export competitiveness. These results are
consistent with the literature, which suggests that
economic reforms create a more conducive
environment for investment and trade. However,
the paper also finds negative externalities, such as
rising income inequality and environmental
degradation. By making the economy more
market-oriented, the reforms have led to greater
income disparities. The reforms also led to
environmental degradation due to the neglect of
environmental regulation in trade and investment
policy. High regression in variation as it increases
by 0.25 so we can detect problem of
multicollinearity so it is not a perfect regression
equation and model is also not significant we also
get to know that economic reforms as a whole
were impactful as we see increase in all
parameters or explanatory variables.
