Indian economy
The Economy of India is the seventh-
the value of the variable in question, such as GDP. For example, a one-month
appreciation of the US$ by 5% against the Japanese Yen would reduce the dollar
value of the Japanese economy by 5%. Clearly, this is more to do with changes in
the exchange rate than changes in the underlying state of the Japanese economy.
Secondly, market exchange rates are determined by demand and supply of
currencies, which reflect changes in imports and exports of traded goods and
services.
Example : PPP
Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) is measured by
Example : PPP
Suppose that Japan has a higher GDP per capita
2011 compared with China's 14.9% and the US' 17.1%. The
survey covered 199 economies.
"The United States remained the world's largest
economy, but it was closely followed by China
when measured using PPPs. India was now the
world's third largest economy, moving ahead of
Japan," the report said.
Despite high inflation in India in recent years,
prices in the country are still well below those in
advanced economies, explaining the higher
raking for India on the PPP measure.
