National Council of Applied Economic Research, India (NCAER)


Indian research body, with expertise and organizational resources in the design and execution of large-scale sample surveys on regional development and planning, human development, demography, demand variations for specific products as well as for a whole range of consumer durables and non-durables. More specifically, NCAER has built up a rich database on income, consumption, savings and investment of households.

A broad theme that permeates the Council's current research activities is the progress of India's economic reform programme and its impact on agriculture, industry and human development. An emerging focus is rigorous evaluation of major government public expenditure schemes in the social sector, at both state and union levels. New areas being considered include analysis of social security and social protection issues; health economics; and the economics of the "new economy", particularly information technology and biotechnology. The Council also has an emerging specialisation in gender issues.<\UL>
