Growth Versus Development • Growth is a uni-variate concept and measured as growth rate of per capita real GDP. • Development is a multivariate concept; essentially taking into account per capita GDP; mortality rate and literacy rate.

Some Facts • “Among wage and salary earners the top 20 per cent of the population in urban India earns 56 per cent of the income while the bottom 20 per cent earns barely 3.4 per cent of the income” – pp.42 • “Indeed the top 20 per cent earns more than all other put together” – pp.43 Source: India Today, September 18-24, 2007; NSSO – 2004-2005.
Data and Methodology • Decompose agricultural, manufacturing and services, components of GDP into trend component and cyclical component. • It is a bi-variate model; with rainfall and individual GDP components - agriculture, manufacturing or services, all at the State level. • Trend component generally represents supply side whereas cyclical component generally represents demand side components. • Blanchard - Quah decomposition techniques is used for identifying demand and supply side shocks.
Results • Supply side disturbances contribute most to fluctuation in agricultural output and least to fluctuation in services sector output. • Demand side disturbances mostly affect manufacturing output. Services output again are least affected. • Fluctuations are measured at a lag length of four quarters.
