Abstract

For the investors and businesses still swooning over India's red-hot growth, a pair of economists delivered a splash of cold water to their faces during a talk organized by the Center for the Advanced Study of India. Shanta Devarajan, chief economist for South Asia at the World Bank, and Arvind Subramanian, a division chief in the IMF's research department, argued that India's infamously inefficient institutions are a drag on growth -- though things aren't actually all that bad in comparison to other nations. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
