Book Description
This study paper discusses regional imbalance and policy perspectives of services sector in Maharashtra State of India. The country adopted the special program targeted to accelerate development of service activities after liberalization and privatization since year 1991. Between 2009-2010 and 2015-2016, estimates from the state sample of the National Sample Survey for Maharashtra show that the proportion of workers dependent in agriculture and allied activities declined by 16 percentage points (from 60 per cent to 44 per cent) the proportion of workers in the industry remained around 16 per cent and that in services increased from 24 per cent to 40 per cent. Assuming the continuation of a similar trend, one can say that in 2016-17 more than 50 per cent of the workers and their families depend on service industry. In Maharashtra service industry flourished full flange mainly where industrial development is good and having more population density like and adjutant districts Thane, Nasik, Pune, Satara, Sangali & Kolhapur. In rest of Maharashtra; service industry took shape only at district head quarters. However, still there is much potential to be studied and involved in dimension of ongoing reforms for regional balance.
