| Abstract: | The paper is based on the eight input-output (I-O) tables for the Indian economy available over a period of 36 years from 1968-69 to 2003-4. The technical progress (TP) in the context of the I-O tables is based on the concept of a production function defining the relationship between gross output and material inputs as well as value added at the disaggregated sectoral level. The paper attempts to answer the following questions: • Was the TP substantial and continuous throughout the period? • Was the rate of TP during the inward looking and outward looking growth strategy phases of the economy the same? • Was the rate of TP at the disaggregated sectoral level almost constant over time? |
