India Proposes Sector-Wise Framework to Measure Knowledge Economy Contribution
India's Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation is considering a new framework to measure the knowledge economy's contribution to growth. A committee led by former finance secretary Ratan P Watal recommends sector-wise statistical accounts for seven areas, including AI, research and development, human capital, and the digital economy. The proposed federated model aligns with the System of National Accounts 2025 and aims to improve policymaking by identifying strengths and gaps in knowledge-related sectors.
