Newsletter

March 2022

 
 
 

The March 2022 issue of the Newsletter provides a quick recap of ICRIER's research and policy engagements during the month of February 2022.

We organised a webinar on the topic, ‘WTO Amidst the Changing Geopolitical Landscape’ in collaboration with the India office of the Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung (KAS). The discussion was well-attended. ICRIER participated in the 16th 5-Institute Budget Seminar 2022, to present a reform and development perspective on the 2022-23 Union Budget. We also released working paper titled, ’Stylized Facts on the Evolution of the Enterprise Size Distribution in India's Manufacturing Sector’.

Apart from the budget-related news circulated in the last Newsletter, our media articles during the last month covered a wide range of topics including the state of the economy, agriculture, international trade, employment, and telecommunications.

To help us customize the information we share with our readers and reduce the number of announcements from us, we request you to select the themes that are of most interest to you by clicking on the subscribe button.
