Authors:-Assistant Professor Dr. Pooja Kumari, Associate Professor Dr. R. Vennila
Abstract- A lot of debate is going on about the importance of foreign direct investment (FDI) in the process of growth has been hot in a number of nations, including India. The foundation and prerequisite for economic development and growth is investment. In addition to a country’s foreign exchange reserves, other factors that are essential to its health include exports, government revenue, financial status, the amount of available domestic savings, and the volume and caliber of foreign investment. The aim of this study is to analyze the impact of FDI on Indian Economy. To meet the objective of the study time series data is used 2005 to 2023. Variables used in the study are Foreign Direct Investment as dependent variable and Gross Domestic Capital Formation (GDCF), export, import, Gross Domestic Product (GDP), Foreign Exchange Reserve (FER) and Wholesale Price Index (WPI)as independent variables. Techniques used in this study are descriptive test, correlation and regression analysis. FDI exhibits a positive correlation with variables such as GDCF (0.44), Export (0.38), Import (0.42), GDP (0.44), and FER (0.44). This implies that a 1% increase in FDI corresponds to a corresponding degree of change in other variables. The correlation between WPI and FDI is negative, or – 0.22, indicating that the two variables go in different directions. The study concluded that FDI statically significantly impact on Indian economy.
Efficiency of Pareto Optimality for Consumption and Production
Authors:-Pakhshan M R Palani, Ali jalal Hussen
Abstract- Pareto efficiency, or Pareto optimality, is an economic condition where possessions cannot be rearranged to make one specific better off without creating at least one individual worse off. In this paper, the main objective is to focus on the empirical implications of Pareto optimal provision of public goods and of competitive equilibrium with public goods. The data set to test the empirical implications does not require full information on individual private goods consumption, and only involves market prices, aggregate endowments and production, government tax revenue and individual incomes. The research is based on reviewing and analyzing 15 different articles in a variety of international peer reviewed journal. The overall results show that the Pareto principle in mathematical economy can be used to derive necessary and sufficient conditions for observable data to be consistent with Pareto optimal provision of public goods and competitive equilibrium with public goods, respectively. Furthermore, the research has confirmed that Pareto efficiency is occurring when an organisation or entrepreneurs has its resources and goods apportioned to the supreme level of efficiency, and no alteration can be made without creating someone worsened. The study recommends the business world, factory managers to adopt Pareto development trials, in which they relocate labor capitals to attempt to increase the output of gathering workers without say, declining the productivity of the stuffing and delivery workers.

Authors:-Pallavi Rai Chandra Shekhar
Abstract- This study investigates the dynamics of mutual fund performance in India, focusing on factors such as investor behavior, regulatory influences, technological advancements, and the growing popularity of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) funds. It provides an in-depth analysis of the evolution of mutual funds, both globally and in the Indian context, examining key performance evaluation metrics, investor preferences, and the role of financial technology in enhancing mutual fund accessibility. Drawing from a wide range of domestic and international literature, this research aims to fill existing gaps in mutual fund performance studies, offering insights into the impact of recent regulatory changes, the growing influence of digital platforms, and the shift toward sustainable investing. The findings underscore the significance of investor education, cost efficiency, and the resilience of ESG funds during market downturns. This research also identifies areas for future exploration, such as the long-term effects of emerging technologies on mutual fund transparency and performance.
Economic Impact of Self-Help Group Members in Lucknow and Basti District, Uttar Pradesh: An Analytical Study
Authors:-Pallavi Rai Chandra Shekhar
Abstract- This study explores the economic impact of Self-Help Group (SHG) membership on individuals in two districts of Uttar Pradesh, India—Lucknow (urban) and Basti (rural). The study evaluates the impact of SHGs on income, savings, access to credit, and livelihood diversification among 300 participants—200 SHG members (100 from each district) and 100 non-members. Both quantitative data (survey) and qualitative data (interviews and focus group discussions) were collected. The results show a notable improvement in economic outcomes for SHG members in both districts, although members in Lucknow experienced a significantly higher increase in income and livelihood diversification. The rural district of Basti faces challenges such as market access, digital illiteracy, and infrastructural limitations, which hinder the full potential of SHGs. Recommendations emphasize infrastructural improvements, digital literacy, and financial inclusion programs, particularly for rural SHGs, to enhance their long-term sustainability and impact.
