Foreign direct investment increases the productive capacity of economy on one hand and influences the demand on the other side due to increase in the income level. Keeping in view the above said phenomenon, Government of India has abandoned its long held restrictive foreign investment policy in 1991, and sought to compete with the successful Asian economies to get a greater share of the world's FDI. The present study is undertaken to identify the emerging trends with regard to FDI and the impact of FDI on Economic Growth Parameters in India. The economic growth indicators selected for the study are gross domestic production, net domestic production, gross national product and net national product. The results of the analysis indicate that gross domestic product and gross national product increase to a large extent increase in the volume of FDI while other selected parameters also indica...

Capital adequacy is an indicator of the financial health of the banking sector. It is measured by the Capital to Risk Weighted Asset Ratio (CRAR), defined as the ratio of a bank’s capital to its total risk-weighted assets. Financial regulations generally impose a capital adequacy norm on their banking and financial system in order to provide a buffer to absorb unforeseen losses due to risky investments. The CRAR is the most widely employed measure for the soundness of a bank. Globally, the CRAR ranges between 7.1% and 34.9%. The overall CRAR of the Indian scheduled commercial banks at the end of March, 2007 was 12.3%, as against the Indian regulatory requirement of 9%, which itself was higher than the Basel norm of 8%. This study presents the status of Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) of diff...

Value Added Services have become the backbone of telecom service providers, as users look beyond voice and mobile turns in to personal computer. VAS providers’ contribution to the total revenue kitty of telecom companies has been increasing over the last 2-3 years from 2-3% to 8-10% currently. The present paper is an attempt to study “Usage of Mobile Value Added Services: An Empirical Study” of mobile phone users. The results of the study showed that subscription of value added services is not so popular among subscribers. To make it subscribe service providers continuously pursued their subscribers by different means such as making calls or SMS or through dealers. Performance of value added services and charges charged for these services play important role for the popularity of value added services among subscribers. It was observed that approximate 33 percent o...

Quarterly data of BSE Sensex, Exchange rate, Index of Industrial Production, Wholesale Price Index and Gross value Added over the period April 2012 to June 2017 has been used in this study. Descriptive analysis, Pearson correlation, Unit root test and Granger Causality test are used to test the relationship between macroeconomic variables. Thestudy finds strong correlation between BSE Sensex, Exchange Rate, Industrial productivity and Gross Value Added. Although no causality relationship exists between respective variables and BSE Sensex, this may be due to the influence of other factors on stock market returns, warranting further research.

FDI also tends to improve the productive efficiency of resource allocation by facilitating the transfer of resources across different sectors of the economy. The cause and benefit of foreign investment varies from country to country. It can persuade the factor productivity of the recipient country and also shape the balance of payments. The purpose of the paper is to estimate and analyze the impacts of FDI on exports, imports, foreign exchanges and capital formation in India for the post-liberalization period (1991-2009). With this intention, simple regression technique has been used to capture the impact of FDI on these economic indicators. FDI has been used as an independent variable and others are used as dependent variables. Growth rates are evaluated and trends are analyzed for this purpose. The study enables us to obtain a bluepri...

The present study is an attempt to search out the determinants of subscription of IPOs. Various studies regarding Initial Public offers conclude about the positive and significant relationship between oversubscription and extent of underpricing of IPOs on listing day. The paper examines various characteristics of IPOs which may have impact on level of subscription of IPOs. A sample of 488 IPOs offered through Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) during the year 1993-94 to 2007-08 has been considered to work out the level of subscription of IPOs. The summarized view of various characteristics of IPOs has been reported also. The zero order correlations have been used to test the association between different variables. The variables those may have significant impact on subscription have been traced through multivariate regression model.

The study employed the Data Envelopment Approach (DEA) to examine the efficiency of the selected sample. The Malmquist Productivity Index was used to reveal the productivity change in Housing companies over the specified time. The study found little productivity growth among the Decision Making Units (DMUs) in spite of their efficiency improvement practices during the study period. The study indicates that there is a need for better utilization of resources and scale expansion. Further improvements in the housing sector can be achieved by technological improvements as it is the main reason behind poor productivity growth during the study period.

We use the Fisher Matrix formalism to evaluate the potential for the galaxy cluster surveys to make predictions about cosmological parameters like the gravitational growth index gamma. The primary purpose of this study has been to check whether we can rule out one or the other of the underlying gravity theories in light of the present uncertainty of mass-observable relations and their scatter evolution. We found that these surveys will provide better constraints on various cosmological parameters even after we admit a lack of complete knowledge about the galaxy cluster structure, and when we combine the information from the cluster number count redshift and mass evolution with that from the cluster power spectrum. Based on this, we studied the ability of different surveys to constrain the growth history of the Universe. It was found that whereas eROSITA surveys will need strong priors on cluster structure evolution to conclusively rule out one or the other of the two gravity models, General Relativity and DGP Braneworld Gravity; WFXT surveys do hold the special promise of differentiating growth and telling us whether it is GR or not, with its wide-field survey having the ability to say so even with 99% confidence. PART B: Chemical Evolution in Quasars: We studied chemical evolution in the broad emission line region (BELR) of nitrogen rich quasars drawn from the SDSS Quasar Catalogue IV. Using tools of emission-line spectroscopy, we made detailed abundance measurements of ˜ 40 quasars and estimated their metallicities using the line-intensity ratio method. It was found that quasars with strong nitrogen lines are indicators of high metallicities. Some of these quasars have reached metallicities as high as Z ˜ 20 Z⊙ . Our detailed analysis showed that except in three QSOs, most of the different line-intensity ratios implied the similar metallicities. This verifies that this abundance analysis technique does produce meaningful results. The exceptions are the line-intensity ratio NIV]/CIV, which gives systematically low metallicities and the line-intensity ratio NV/He II, which gives systematically high metallicities. We compared our findings with the predictions of the galactic chemical evolution models. From this study it was concluded that such high metallicities are reached either by requiring a top-heavy Initial Mass Function (IMF) for the quasar host galaxy as suggested by theoretical models, or by physically catastrophic events such as mergers that trigger star formation in already evolved systems which then leads to extreme metallicities in such quasars.

The N V 1240/ C IV 1549 intensity ratio is often used as a metallicity indicator for QSOs. The validity of this approach can be tested by studying objects in which the N IV] and N III] lines, in addition to N V, are unusually strong and easily measurable. If all of these ionization states of nitrogen point to the same metallicity, it implies that the large N V strengths observed in most QSOs are not due to some peculiarity of the N V 1240 line. This test had previously been applied to Q0353-383, a QSO long known to have extremely strong N III] and N IV] lines, with the result supporting high metallicity in that object. Here we make the same check in two other QSOs with very strong nitrogen lines, as a step towards using such QSOs to better probe the early chemical enrichment histories of their host galaxies. J1254+0241 has a metallicity of about 10x solar, with good agreement between the abundance results from different line ratios. J1546+5253 has a more moderate metallicity, about 5x solar, but the abundances determined from different line ratios show a much wider scatter than they do for J1254+0241 or Q0353-383. This QSO also has an unusual low-ionization emission line spectrum similar to some low-ionization BAL QSOs and to the unusual AGN I Zw 1. We attribute the peculiarities in its spectrum to some combination of unusual structure and/or unusual physical conditions in its BELR. Our results further affirm the validity of the N V/C IV ratio as an abundance indicator in QSOs.

The N V 1240/ C IV 1549 intensity ratio is often used as a metallicity indicator for QSOs. The validity of this approach can be tested by studying objects in which the N IV] and N III] lines, in addition to N V, are unusually strong and easily measurable. If all of these ionization states of nitrogen point to the same metallicity, it implies that the large N V strengths observed in most QSOs are not due to some peculiarity of the N V 1240 line. This test had previously been applied to Q0353-383, a QSO long known to have extremely strong N III] and N IV] lines, with the result supporting high metallicity in that object. Here we make the same check in two other QSOs with very strong nitrogen lines, as a step towards using such QSOs to better probe the early chemical enrichment histories of their host galaxies. J1254+0241 has a metallicity of about 10x solar, with good agreement between the abundance results from different line ratios. J1546+5253 has a more moderate metallicity, about 5x solar, but the abundances determined from different line ratios show a much wider scatter than they do for J1254+0241 or Q0353-383. This QSO also has an unusual low-ionization emission line spectrum similar to some low-ionization BAL QSOs and to the unusual AGN I Zw 1. We attribute the peculiarities in its spectrum to some combination of unusual structure and/or unusual physical conditions in its BELR. Our results further affirm the validity of the N V/C IV ratio as an abundance indicator in QSOs.
