Abstract: This paper analyzes the factors of industrial growth in India from a multi-sectoral perspective and also highlights inter-industry linkages in the economy during the period 1973-74 through 1984-85. The analysis at aggregate level, indicates the dominance of the domestic final demand expansion; the role of export expansion decreasing overtime. The ratio of intermediate input use for total demand which measures inter-industry linkages, does not appear to have risen markedly. Disaggregative analysis, however, presents important variations from the above pattern. Liberalization attempts undertaken since the late seventies have not so far yielded the expected results. Policies that foster greater coordination between demand and supply so as to step-up the momentum of growth require urgent attention.
