History of India India is a land of ancient civilization. India's social, economic, and cultural configurations are the products of a long process of regional expansion. Indian history begins with the birth of the Indus Valley Civilization and the coming of the Aryans. These two phases are usually described as the pre-Vedic and Vedic age. Hinduism arose in the Vedic period. The history of this astonishing sub continent dates back to almost 75000 years ago with the evidence of human activity of Homo sapiens. Amazingly, almost five thousand years ago, the inhabitants of the Indus Valley Civilization had developed an urban culture based on commerce and sustained by agricultural trade.

CULTURE Indian cultural history spans more than 4,500 years. During the Vedic period.(c. 1700 – 500 BCE), the foundations of Hindu philosophy mythologytheology and literature were laid, and many beliefs and practices which still exist today, suchasdharma,karma, yoga, and mokṣa, were established. India is notable for its religious diversity with Hinduism, Buddhism, Sikhism, Islam, Christianity, and Jainism among the nation's major religions. The predominant religion, Hinduism, has been shaped by various historical schools of thought, including those of the Upanishads, the Yoga Sutras, the Bhakti movement and by Buddhist philosophy.
ECONOMY According to the International Monetary Fund (IMF), the Indian economy in 2015 was nominally worth US$2.183 trillion; it is the 7th-largest economy by market exchange rates, and is, at US$8.027 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 capital 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 liberalize its economy. since then it has slowly moved towards a free-market systemby emphasizing 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.
