INDIA-ECONOMICAL LOOK
 The Indian economy is the world's seventh-largest by
nominal GDP and third-largest by purchasing power
parity(PPP). Following market-based economic reforms in
1991, India became one of the fastest-growing major
economies; it is considered a newly industrialised country.
However, it continues to face the challenges of poverty,
corruption, malnutrition, inadequate public healthcare, and
terrorism. A nuclear weapons state and a regional power, it
has the third-largest standing army in the world and ranks
ninth in military expenditure among nations.
 According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), as of April
2015, the Indian economy is nominally worth US$2.306 trillion;
it is the 7th-largest economy by market exchange rates, and is, at
US$7.996 trillion, the third-largest by purchasing power parity,
or PPP.With its average annual GDP growth rate of 5.8% over the
past two decades, and reaching 6.1% during 2011–12, India is
one of the world's fastest-growing economies. However, the
country ranks 140th in the world in nominal GDP per capita and
129th in GDP per capita at PPP. Until 1991, all Indian
governments followed protectionist policies that were influenced
by socialist economics. Widespread state intervention and
regulation largely walled the economy off from the outside
world. An acute balance of payments crisis in 1991 forced the
nation to liberalise its economy; since then it has slowly moved
towards a free-market system by emphasising both foreign trade
and direct investment inflows. India's recent economic model is
largely capitalist. India has been a member of WTO since 1
January 1995.
 The 486.6-million worker Indian labour force is the world's second-
largest, as of 2011. The service sector makes up 55.6% of GDP, the
industrial sector 26.3% and the agricultural sector 18.1%. Major
agricultural products include rice, wheat, oilseed, cotton, jute, tea,
sugarcane, and potatoes. Major industries include textiles,
telecommunications, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, biotechnology, food
processing, steel, transport equipment, cement, mining, petroleum,
machinery, and software. In 2006, the share of external trade in India's
GDP stood at 24%, up from 6% in 1985. In 2008, India's share of
world trade was 1.68%; In 2011, India was the world's tenth-largest
importer and the nineteenth-largest exporter. Major exports include
petroleum products, textile goods, jewellery, software, engineering
goods, chemicals, and leather manufactures. Major imports include
crude oil, machinery, gems, fertiliser, and chemicals. Between 2001
and 2011, the contribution of petrochemical and engineering goods to
total exports grew from 14% to 42%. India was the second largest
textile exporter after China in the world in calendar year 2013.
