This document discusses the impact of demonetization on the construction labor force in India. It notes that construction is one of the largest employers in India after agriculture. However, the cash-based nature of most transactions in the industry and informal nature of most employment left many construction workers vulnerable when demonetization removed 86% of cash from circulation. This led to workers leaving construction sites as they weren't paid, slowing or stopping many ongoing projects. The document also discusses skills that will be needed to help the construction industry recover, such as management, sales, and green skills for new jobs. It concludes that both government initiatives and skills training by companies can help alleviate the negative impacts of economic crises on the labor force.

Impact of Globalization on Small Scale Industries in (1)Russel Shaik
Globalization has negatively impacted small-scale industries in India. Before globalization, small industries were an important part of the Indian economy, contributing significantly to output, exports, and employment with low investment and high job creation. However, since market liberalization in 1991, small industries have struggled with increased competition and a decline in the number of units, production, and employment. While globalization opens new opportunities, small industries must improve technology to survive intensified competition in the global market.
This document summarizes macroeconomic performance in India across four areas: foreign capital flows, human development indicators, the power sector, and globalization/privatization/liberalization. It provides details on foreign portfolio flows, foreign institutional investments, gender equality, healthcare, education, the power industry, and reforms related to capital flows and the economy. Key points include gradual liberalization of capital flows, a shift from debt to non-debt flows, improvements in gender equality and health/education indicators, issues facing the power sector, and the impact of reforms on foreign investment.
The document discusses the role of foreign direct investment (FDI) and migrant remittances in India's economic development. It notes that FDI in India has increased significantly since economic liberalization in 1991, reaching $37 billion in 2009-2010. Major sources of FDI are Mauritius and the US. Remittances from Indian migrants working abroad, estimated at $52 billion in 2009-2010, account for 5.63% of India's GDP and help reduce the current account deficit while increasing household expenditures. Both FDI and remittances have thus contributed substantially to India's economic growth and development.

Investment is defining as asset or item that is
purchased with the hope that it will generate income or
appreciate in the future. In an economic sense, an investment is
the purchase of goods that are not consumed today but are
used in the future to create with. In finance an investment is a
monetary asset purchased with the idea that the asset will
provide income in the future or appreciate and be sold at a
higher price. The purpose of this paper is to investigate the
impact of investment (public and private) on economic growth

Descriptive Analysis of Micro, Small And Medium Sized Enterprises (SMEs)Khaled Eid
This document provides a descriptive analysis of micro, small, and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Egypt. It finds that SMEs represent 75% of Egypt's workforce and 99% of private sector establishments. Most Egyptian SMEs are sole proprietorships concentrated in manufacturing and trade. They tend to be small, with 83% having capital under $35,000 USD and 85% employing 5-19 workers. SME performance is closely tied to factors of production, with larger SMEs having higher sales. The analysis finds a "missing middle" between small and large firms.
Fdi in india:An analysis on the impact of fdi in india’s retail sectorSubhajit Ray
The document discusses trends in foreign direct investment (FDI) in India. It analyzes literature on the economic impacts of FDI and summarizes India's policies toward FDI over time. Key points include:
1) Studies have found mixed results on the economic impacts of FDI, with some finding benefits like technology transfer and others finding weak or negative spillover effects.
2) India initially had restrictive FDI policies but began liberalizing in the 1990s, allowing greater foreign equity ownership and automatic approvals in many sectors.
3) Actual FDI inflows to India have increased steadily since 1991 reforms, though growth has been slower than some other countries. In recent years India has gained a
- The document discusses emerging markets, focusing on India and China. It argues that while China's economy is slowing due to factors like a housing bubble and overcapacity, India's economy remains strong, as evidenced by positive manufacturing and services data as well as macroeconomic stability.
- The Indian budget aims to further boost the economy through tax cuts, infrastructure spending, and reforms. With its favorable demographics and policies under Modi, India has strong long-term growth potential and opportunities for investors.
- While the Indian stock market may be overpriced, now could be a good time for entry due to the country's economic resilience and promising outlook. The document recommends sectors like banking and construction.
The document provides an overview of the history and development of the Indian economy from pre-colonial times to the present. It discusses key phases and sectors that have shaped the economy. The pre-colonial economy was well-developed with trade, but the colonial period caused economic depletion as the British extracted resources. Post-independence, planned economic development began, and sectors like agriculture, industry and services now contribute significantly to GDP. The economy has grown substantially but still faces challenges like poverty, unemployment and rural-urban disparities.
This document discusses outsourcing in government and public sector organizations. It provides statistics on outsourcing spending by various governments. For example, the US Department of Defense saw average savings of 30% by outsourcing activities. The UK government spent over £7 billion on outsourced IT services in one year. The document also outlines some of the key concerns with outsourcing for the public sector, such as data security issues when sensitive government data is handled by external vendors. Proper screening and security policies are recommended to mitigate risks to data privacy and intellectual property.
This document analyzes India's economic slowdown in the 2010s. It argues that India is facing a "Four Balance Sheet" challenge involving banks, infrastructure companies, non-bank financial companies, and real estate companies. The slowdown can be traced back to structural issues from the post-Global Financial Crisis period compounding recent cyclical factors. Specifically, investment and exports slowed due to balance sheet problems in infrastructure, while temporary boosts to growth from lower oil prices and credit growth have now faded. Addressing the underlying balance sheet issues across these four sectors is necessary to durably revive economic growth.
The passage discusses India's declining economic growth rate of 5.3%, the lowest in seven years, and the implications this has. It notes that the near double-digit growth previously promised to lift hundreds of millions out of poverty but that goal is now in jeopardy. The economic miracle now feels like a mirage with the currency slump, decline in private investment, and falling GDP. Lower growth carries significant social costs as jobs and opportunities for the large youth population are reduced.

The document discusses the impact of India's 2016 demonetization on the economy, businesses, and people. It had several key effects:
1) It created a large cash shortage in the economy as ₹7 lakh crores was removed but only ₹6 lakh crores was remonetized, hurting many cash-dependent industries and daily activities.
2) Major sectors impacted included retail, agriculture, real estate, construction, and labor-intensive industries as they rely heavily on cash transactions.
3) Common people faced difficulties exchanging and withdrawing cash due to bank queues and cash shortages, impacting their daily spending on necessities, transport, and healthcare.
This document provides an overview and summary of key trends that will shape the Indian technology services industry between now and 2020. It discusses how the industry has grown rapidly over the past decade but now faces risks from the global economic slowdown. The document outlines several major global megatrends, such as the rising economic power of Asia and demographic changes in developed countries, that will alter the industry landscape in coming years by expanding some markets and shrinking others. It asserts that opportunities exist for the industry if it transforms its business models and talent strategies to address the changing needs of customers.

Effects of demonetisation on the retail business of puneIJARIIT
The Modi government’s demonetisation move has had an impact on several sectors, especially real estate. How could
retail be far behind? Given Indian’s propensity to deal in cash, especially when shopping in luxury malls and high streets, retail
will see the short-term impact on sales. The media has already reported how retail sales have dwindled in the immediate aftermath
of the government’s announcement, and how millions of new users are registering on portals offering digital payment services.
The study was conducted by meeting respondents personally and by generating the questionnaire online by means of a Google
spreadsheet, where different retailers of different products were interviewed.
Through this study findings, I could learn that demonetisation negatively affected the middle class the most, followed by the
lower and higher class retail business firms. Surprisingly, the higher class of retail firms was not affected much due to their
dependence on plastic money. In fact, they were also to some extent positively affected as they had many customers seeking them
to dispose of their illegally stored currency notes of Rs. 500 and Rs. 1000.
However, demonetization seems to have largely achieved the objective of its introduction in India, as would the findings of the
study reveal.
I had an amazing experience while doing this research which was full of learnings.
CONSEQUENCES OF ECONOMIC DOWNTURN ON CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY AND ITS REMEDIESIAEME Publication
The construction industry is most significant sector for development of any country. The state of construction industry directly reflects the state of economy of the country and has substantial effect on GDP growth. Our paper aims to study the consequences of economic slowdown on construction industry and to analyze various strategic initiatives taken by different construction firms to combat such times and to come out with remedial tactics in the form of conclusion which can be
referred by construction firms to sail smoothly in the grave situation of economic downturn. Also to study the impact of Government interventions like FDI with policy liberalisation play an important role to combat economic downturn.
The document discusses Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) in India and their role in stimulating economic growth. It notes that MSMEs are considered key to promoting equitable development and have fueled India's economic growth by generating employment and contributing to industrialization. However, MSMEs still face significant challenges accessing funds due to their high risk profile. The document examines alternative avenues of fundraising that could help minimize the demand-supply gap for MSME financing in India.
This document discusses the impact of an industrial slowdown on credit flow and the quality of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in India. It analyzes secondary data on credit flow to SMEs from public sector banks in Rajasthan over recent years. The analysis finds that while there was consistent growth in credit to SMEs, the pace increased sharply from 2007-2008. However, the numbers may be inflated due to an expansion in what is included under SMEs in 2006. Despite the global recession, the number of SME beneficiaries in Rajasthan continued growing between late 2008 and early 2009.
This problem is a result of India's over-leveraged companies and bad loan-saddled public sector banks. As the years rolled by, the ‘Twin Balance Sheet problem’ morphed into a ‘four balance sheet challenge’. The Four Balance Sheet challenge includes the sectors infrastructure companies, banks, NBFCs and real estate companies. We delved into the solutions that can be taken to solve these balance sheet problems of intertwined sectors.

Research topic-EMERGING MARKET IN INDIA
Thesis statement - “My research paper will focus upon different aspects of Emerging market as well as its impact on Indian economy. “As proposed in essay proposal I will first focus on the concept of Emerging markets and how they are having an impact on global businesses.
· What is Emerging Market?
= After a proper research I figured that emerging markets concept reside in developing countries. Wherein these emerging or underdeveloped economies are making a shift from their traditional economies which was originally residing on resource based industries like agriculture, oil or export of raw materials. These economies are growing at a very fast pace to more productive capacities where they are attracting foreign capital and are rapidly industrializing. Critically, they are moving to free/ mixed economies and are becoming more integrated with the global economy with its increase in trade volume, increase in liquidity, equity market. Not only this, they are also focusing on improved infrastructure: as at present they do not have such robust infrastructure to support fast-paced growth. Some other general indicators are high growth rate, competitiveness, high ROI with high risk rate, unified currency and stocks, low-to-middle per capita income and are some social instability. (Sraders, 2018) (Chappelow, 2019) (Amadeo, 2019)
Some of the characteristics of emerging markets are given below: -
1)Low to middle average per capita Income-Emerging markets have low to middle average per capita income depicting low living standards and a lot of scope for improvement. Unemployment usually in these economies is more and more and more people are deployed on single task, thus, resulting in lower wages for the workforce.
2)High potential for growth-These economies has high potential for growth, their market requires lot of capital investment. These market owing to their scope for high growth attract more of foreign investment. These economies provide higher-than-average returns for investors.
3)High volatility- These economies are highly volatile, they are very much subjected and vulnerable to social, political and economical changes. As these economies are very much reliant on agriculture and resource based they can be severely impacted by natural disaster, external price shocks and domestic policy instability leading a groundwork for future development.
4)Currency Swings- Emerging markets face more volatile to currency swings in comparison to U.S dollar that’s because they do not have enough power to influence such movements. These fluctuations also result in commodities swing as of oil and food.
5)High growth rate associated with High risk- These economies owing to huge potential are growing fast and are rapidly industrializing resulting in higher growth rate even in comparison to some of the developed economies. For e.g.: -growth rate in ...

Embedded machine learning-based road conditions and driving behavior monitoringIJECEIAES
Car accident rates have increased in recent years, resulting in losses in human lives, properties, and other financial costs. An embedded machine learning-based system is developed to address this critical issue. The system can monitor road conditions, detect driving patterns, and identify aggressive driving behaviors. The system is based on neural networks trained on a comprehensive dataset of driving events, driving styles, and road conditions. The system effectively detects potential risks and helps mitigate the frequency and impact of accidents. The primary goal is to ensure the safety of drivers and vehicles. Collecting data involved gathering information on three key road events: normal street and normal drive, speed bumps, circular yellow speed bumps, and three aggressive driving actions: sudden start, sudden stop, and sudden entry. The gathered data is processed and analyzed using a machine learning system designed for limited power and memory devices. The developed system resulted in 91.9% accuracy, 93.6% precision, and 92% recall. The achieved inference time on an Arduino Nano 33 BLE Sense with a 32-bit CPU running at 64 MHz is 34 ms and requires 2.6 kB peak RAM and 139.9 kB program flash memory, making it suitable for resource-constrained embedded systems.
