Introduction

After India's independence in 1947, the government focused on state-controlled industrial growth. This led to the License Raj- a complex system of approvals and restrictions.
By the late 1980s, India’s economy was struggling:

  • Low foreign exchange reserves
  • High inflation
  • Slow industrial growth
    To address this crisis, the New Economic Policy (NEP) of 1991 was introduced, focusing on LiberalizationPrivatization, and Globalization (LPG).
