Objectives: To investigate the employment opportunities and participation of SHG (Self-help Group) in selected households in Karnataka, India.
Methods/Statistical analysis: We selected Karnataka state intensively. For study purpose, we divided Karnataka into three regions: North, Central and South Karnataka. Among regions, two districts selected where the SC population is high and this is second stage. And third stage, two villages were selected where the SC population was high. In all selected villages, 150 sample households were selected randomly. The total sample size was 1800.
Findings: The major findings of the study are: half of the households did not get regular employment in their villages. Agriculture labour was the main occupation of the selected households. Among the households, forty eight per cent of the household were involved in Self-Help Group (SHG) activities during study period. Labour work is the main source to deposit the money in SHG. Thirdly, half of the households were having bank accounts in their respective villages. Some of the households not opened account in banks (50%), due to poverty and illiteracy were the main reasons. Five per cent of the households were availed loans from the banks some of the households were not getting loans from the banks due to lack of collateral security.
Application/Improvements: The government of Karnataka must provide needful financial assistance to the people without collateral in general and particularly in selected dalit households. In addition to that government shall provide employment opportunities to the dalit people in Karnataka.

Background/Objective: Indian economy has been witnessing an uptrend in growth rate since 1990’s. The main objective of the paper is to investigate the factors influenced on output.
Methods/Statistical analysis: The study used output as a depended variable and number of workers, fixed capital and factories are independent variables are considered for regression analysis. We have used Cobb-Douglas production function. The study used Annual Survey of Industry data, and 69 industries data used for analysis. Also, for the aggregate industry-wise analysis the selected 69 three-digit industries are grouped into 12 industries as mentioned in the ASI two-digit classification.
Findings: Manufacture of Beverages, tobacco and related products, Textile products, Metal products and manufacture of Other Manufacture Industries employment per unit has been growing at a constant rate during study period. The study found workers influenced output in machinery equipment other than transport equipment industry in post globalisation period. As far as fixed capital is concerned, it influenced output growth in pre globalization period. Results shows that, in pre globalization period factories were influenced output growth in Beverages and tobacco and related products, Wood and wood products, Paper and paper products, basic chemical industry and transport industry. As far as factory is concerned, total study period (pre and post globalisation period together) shows that only a few industries viz, manufacture of food products, beverages tobacco and related products, wood and wood products, Basic chemical industry, non-metal products and metal products have reported influence of factory on output. However, in post globalization period, food products, rubber, plastic petroleum, Non-metal products and metal products have reported more influence on output.
Improvement/Application: Government has to give some incentives in regard to fixed capital to those industries not having sufficient level of fixed capital.

Objectives: To explore the Indian small scale industrial contribution to exports, especially of mentioned industries.
Methods/Statistical Analysis: This study attempts to present and analyze industrial manufacturing sector’s contribution to the export growth. It particularly concentrates on the contribution of SSIs sector. Exports data collected from Hand Book of Statistics on the Indian Economy, RBI, from 1987-88 to 2002-03. The study calculated Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR).
Findings: The success of the Globalization of the Indian economy should be measured by its export performance. Innovation in the operation and organization of this sector is key for the success of the economic reforms. SSIs contributed enormous exports in post globalization period. Those industries are: Chemical and allied products, Marine products processed foods, Woolen garments and knitwear’s, Rayon synthetic products, Processed tobacco, Snuff & Beedi spices, spice oils and Lac industry.
Improvements/Applications: Government has to give some special incentives SSI, provide market facilities and purchase SSI products in Government institutions.

Objectives: To assess highest export performance of commodity within agricultural products. Also to analyze the export performance of agriculture products in India.
Methods/Statistical analysis: We collected the secondary data from Hand Book of Statistics on the Indian Economy, published by Reserve Bank of India (RBI). And data analyzed through calculated Compound Annual Growth Rates (CAGR) during 1990-91 to 2013-14 in agricultural commodities. In addition, we used simple percentage shares of various products in the agriculture sector in mentioned years.
Findings: Among the products, primary products exports share is occupied the third place. Among the agriculture products, rice exports growth rate was higher in the first reform period. Overall, the rice growth rate is higher. From 1991-92 to 2004-05, marine products’ share is higher within products and rice products export’s share also higher in few years in study period. Among the three products, other ores and minerals export’s CAGR has increased tremendously.
Improvements/Applications: The Government of India has to give needful subsidies to the agriculture sector; this leads to increase the exports performance.
