Abstract: The present paper points towards the need for integration between the new Exit policy and the 8th plan in India by considering direct and indirect effects of a unit increase in coefficients in each of the 47 commodity producing sectors using the CSO’s latest Input-Output Tables. Out main findings are : (a) If our objective is to achieve diversified high growth in the economy, the agri-based manufacturing sectors considering their linkages and DI effects; (b) Degree of export orientation of a sector varies inversely with the linkages of the sector with the rest of the economy; and (c) Import intensity of export oriented sectors is higher than that of other sectors. There is, thus, an urgent need to integrate the export promotion measures in our overall development strategy.
