However, the effect of ownership status on exports proves to be that domestic and private firms are more export intensive than foreign firms and state-owned firms, respectively. Salaries, wages, and R&D expenditure incurred by firms may also improve labour productivity, however these mechanisms have not been included in this study.Text1 digital file (25 p.)Application/pdfenINDIAMANUFACTURINGEXPORT ORIENTED INDUSTRIESPRODUCTIVITYCOMPETITIVENESSECONOMETRIC MODELSLABOUR ECONOMICSLabour productivity and export performance : firm-level evidence from Indian manufacturing industries since 1991Synthesis Report
