Most exports comprise low technology, labour-intensive goods such as textiles, gems and jewellery, and animal and leather products. India’s existing Preferential Trade Agreements (PTAs) do not appear to be designed with the objective of reducing costs involved in setting up an IPN. Five key policy recommendations are proposed based on the current state of India’s participation in IPNs and associated policy challenges. Actions should be taken in the area of reducing behind-the border restrictions on international trade and investment, with a focus on improving domestic regulations.Text1 digital file (77 p. : ill.)Application/pdfenINDIAINTERNATIONAL PRODUCTION NETWORKFOREIGN INVESTMENTPRODUCTION FACTORSMANUFACTURINGPREFERENTIAL AGREEMENTSAUTOMOBILE INDUSTRYELECTRONICS INDUSTRYFOREIGN TRADE POLICYTRADE FACILITATIONTRADE AGREEMENTSSOUTH ASIASynthesis Report
