It is expected that the much of the success of India at present is a result of labour moving from low value added sectors into areas of high value added. To determine whether this is in fact the case, a shift share analysis of India will be conducted to determine the underlying reasons for the changing economy. From these results, inferences about Bangalore’s economy will be made. The analysis... (More)

The results will shed light on policy implications, as and will add to the discussion of convergence and divergence. (Less)
