Indian economy is one of
the largest in the world
with an average GDB
growth rate of 7 per cent
over the last two decades.
Classified as a newly industrialized
economy among the developing
nations, the country is yet to
reap the benefits of demographic
dividend in view of its huge young
population. The economy thrives in
the wake of its growth in industrial
production, urbanization and rural
to urban migration for employment
purposes. The service sector is the
biggest contributor to the GDP of
the country followed by industry
and agriculture. Around half of
our country's labour force is selfemployed
and around 93 per cent of
them work in the unorganized sector.
