Breaking Down IPO Barriers
The paper aims at providing a modeling framework on the barriers, which influence the retail investment decision in the initial public offering (IPO) market. Based on a structured literature review and nominal group‐based expert discussions, eight major barriers were identified and they were assessed through the grey‐DEMATEL methodology. The findings point out that information asymmetry and higher pricing by issuers are the most prominent barrier…
Examining Antecedents of AI-integrated Digital HRM Adoption in Indian SMEs
The study aims to assess the relative prominence of antecedents responsible for the adoption of digital AI-integrated human resource management (HRM) in small, and medium enterprises (SMEs). The present study has employed the technological–organizational and environment (TOE) framework to identify and categorize the antecedents and their sub-antecedents through an extensive literature review. Further, the fuzzy analytic hierarchy process was empl…
The virtual voyage
Metaverse technology has the potential to revolutionise the way we travel, experience places, and engage with tourism establishments. However, due to its early development stage, individuals tend to resist the adoption of this new technology. In this regard, this study aims to understand the factors that can impact individuals’ intention to adopt metaverse technology in the tourism and hospitality sector. Drawing on the Behavioural Reasoning Theo…
(Wl-8179)-Poverty Decline in India after 2011-12
The absence of official poverty estimates after 2011-12 has led to a new debate about the recent evolution of poverty in India. This paper reviews the existing estimates of consumption-based poverty after 2011-12. While a wide range of estimates have been put forward, pointing to both rapid and negligible poverty decline, the paper argues that a slowing of poverty reduction after 2011-12 is most likely. A variety of complementary indicators of po…
Wl-8164-Prices, Poverty Lines, and Poverty in 2022–23
This paper presents initial and partial estimates of poverty from the 2022-23 consumption survey. In the absence of new official poverty lines, the paper updates the official Tendulkar committee poverty lines for 2022-23. It also reports alternative estimates of poverty based on updated Rangarajan committee poverty lines. Preliminary estimates suggest that while poverty has continued to fall post-2011/12, the pace of poverty reduction has slowed …
Impact of Covid ‐19 on portfolio allocation decisions of individual investors
Covid-19 has impacted the financial markets dramatically. The risk and return expectations of investors have changed, leading them to reallocate their portfolios. This paper aims to analyse the impact of Covid-19 on the portfolio allocation decisions of individual investors. The study examines the perceptions of investors about various investment avenues before and during the period of extreme uncertainty caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. The data…
Has Ind‐AS adoption affected earnings management in India
The current study provides empirical evidence on how Indian Accounting Standards (Ind‐AS hereinafter) adoption has affected earnings management (EM hereinafter) in India. The study uses the Beneish Model and Modified Jones model to detect EM. The sample of the study comprises 240 companies listed in the S&P BSE MidSmallCap index for the period 2013–2019. The results of the Modified Jones model reveal that Ind‐AS have no significant effect on EM. …
Income mobility in the developing world
This paper examines income mobility in developing countries. We start by synthesizing findings from the available evidence on relative mobility and poverty dynamics. We then describe evidence on economic mobility obtained via synthetic panels constructed from cross-section data. We echo earlier literature in pointing to substantial movement across income classes by households over time: poverty is not inevitably a chronic condition. However, less…
Inequality in India
This paper contributes to the literature by reviewing levels, trends, and structure of inequality since the early 1990s in India. It draws extensively on the existing literature, supplemented with analyses of multiple data sources, to paint a picture. It notes where different data sources suggest conflicting conclusions that reflect both data challenges and the complexity of the underlying drivers of inequality changes. While the primary focus is…
How Lives Change
Development economics is about understanding how and why lives and livelihoods change. This book is about economic development in the village of Palanpur, in Moradabad district, Uttar Pradesh, in north India. It draws on seven decades of detailed data collection by a team of dedicated development economists to describe the evolution of Palanpur’s economy, its society, and its politics. The emerging story of integration of the village economy with…
The Changing Village in India
India has a long-standing tradition of village studies. Within this tradition, observation of the same village or villages over long periods of time has a special place, because it highlights the transformation of economic systems and social structures in rural areas. The essays in this volume examine the challenges and outcomes of such longitudinal research from a variety of angles. They address three broad themes: the first concerns the method …
Changing Village in India
Longitudinal studies that have followed the same village or set of villages over time have a special place in the literature on economic and social transformation in rural areas. By bringing together different contributions from the tradition of such studies in India, this book aims to illustrate the range of analytical and policy issues that can be addressed, highlight the problems and potentials of the longitudinal method, and encourage more wo…
Non-Farm Diversification, Poverty, Economic Mobility and Income Inequality
This paper assembles data at the all-India level and for the village of Palanpur, Uttar Pradesh, to document the growing importance, and influence, of the non-farm sector in the rural economy between the early 1980s and late 2000s. The suggestion from the combined National Sample Survey and Palanpur data is of a slow process of non-farm diversification, whose distributional incidence, on the margin, is increasingly pro-poor. The village-level ana…
