- IGC Research on India
In March 2015, IGC organised a Workshop on Industry Data, held in Delhi. The workshop provided an opportunity for academics, policy makers and government agencies to discuss difficulties they face with using or collecting datasets on Indian firms, and define the steps for a way forward to improve the quality of the data available in these areas. The researchers prepared a background paper that served as a starting point for the discussion. The paper includes a brief summary of recent academic research on firms and development, with an emphasis on what kind of data are used, and how they relate to data that are available in India.
