Introduction The increasing importance of the Indian Economy has led
to a need to Forecast the Performance of the of the
Indian Economy Monitoring of the Indian Economic Cycle has become an
increasingly attractive option for this
Dua et. al. initially propounded an index based on
concurrent indicators but using an index based on
leading indicators is seen to be more appropriate.

The Indicator Approach The Indicator Approach exploits the fact that different
time-series do have different cyclical periods
Time-series can be classified into Coincident, Leading andLagging Indicators
Coincident: Measures of Output, Income, Employmentand Sales
Leading: Placement of New Orders, Intention to Buildand Changes in Profitability
Lagging: Installment Credit Outstanding and InterestRates

The Ideal Indicator It would cover half a century or longer, thus showing its
relation to the economic cycles over a variety of
conditions It would lead the month, around which cyclical revival
centers, by an invariable interval of say, three months or
even better, six months. It would also lead the central
month of every cyclical recession by an invariable timeinterval, which might differ from the lead at revival.

The Ideal Indicator It would show no erratic movements, that is, it would
sweep smoothly up from each cyclical trough to cyclicalpeak and then sweep smoothly down to the next trough,
so that every change in its direction would herald thecoming or recession in the general economy or business.
The cyclical movements would be pronounced enough tobe readily recognized, and give some indication of the
coming change It would be so related to the general economic activity
as to establish as much confidence as the nature of suchthings allows that its future behavior in regard to
economic cycles will be like its past behavior

GDP: Indian Scenario
The GDP growth trend for the last three years appears to
indicate the beginning of a new phase of cyclical upswing
in the economy from 2003-04 The initial momentum to this new phase of expansion, in
2003-04, was provided by agriculture
Industry and services have acted as the twin engines
propelling overall growth of the economy

Human Development Index
Indias labour force has reached 375 million approximately
in 2002, and it will continue to expand over the next twodecades.
The actual rate of that expansion will depend on severalfactors including population growth, growth of the
working age population, labour force participation rates,educational enrolment at higher levels and school drop-outrates.
Approximately three-fourth of the unemployed are in rural
areas and three-fifth among them are educated.

EDUCATION :
Literacy rates in India have arisen dramatically from 18%in 1951 to 65% in 2001, but these rates are still far fromthe UMI reference level of 95%.
Literacy among males is nearly 50% higher than females,and it is about 50% higher in urban areas as compared to
the rural areas. Literacy rates range from as high as 96% in some districts
of Kerala to below 30% in some parts of Madhya Pradesh.

Human Development Index
In terms of total investment in R&D, Indiasexpenditure is 1/60th of that of Korea, 1/250th of
that of the USA, and 1/340th of that of Japan. More significantly, atomic energy, space and
defense research account for 71% of all centralspending on science and technology, which means
that relatively little is left for investment inagriculture, energy, telecommunications and othercrucial sectors within the sphere of science and
technology.

R&D expenditure even in Indias fast-growing IT sectorhas been averaging around 3% of sales turnover (STO),which is much lower as compared to the 14-19% expendedby internationally reputed software firms.
These low figures reflect on our R&D performance.Indias share of global scientific output in 1998 was only
1.58 per cent of the worlds total. Out of 500,000 new patent applications filed globally
each year, China accounts for 96,000 and Korea accountsfor 72,000, while India accounts for only 8,000.
