The monetary policy of British India was highly controversial during the interwar period as it aimed to protect the budgetary obligations and private commerce. The currency stabilization policy was seen as a tool to protect the British economic interest while they ruled India. The currency came under serious pressure during the World War I and Great depression, the facets of Indian currency’s dependence was exposed through the modified council bill system and Gold exchange standard. The much-needed currency reforms and banking system were conceded by the colonial administration after much wrangling for half a century.

The forecasting graphs of World Bank, Reserve Bank of India, etc. are mostly line graphs or time series graphs. Any forecasting contains “standard error” as an error with complicated statistical formulae. A keen observation shows that mathematical patterns are available in nature, but in most of the cases, it is difficult for us to recognize these patterns. Similarly, it is most important for us to know the least upper bounds of these line graphs or time series graphs so that peaks of the prices with respect to time will not exceed these least upper bounds. It is hard to find any statistical or mathematical tool to determine these least upper bounds. Thus we give methodology to obtain these least upper bounds. We show existence of an equilibrium between the expected price and the original price of a commodity with the help of local functions and expansion operators of a bitopological space. These methods are based on choice of a consumer. Examples are provided to show that price of a commodity cannot exceed the interval of expected price. Moreover, we try to provide possible answers to the problem of “Control of Economic Variable” of Morgenstern [O. Morgenstern, Thirteen critical points in contemporary economic theory: An interpretation, Journal of Economic Literature 10(4) 1972 1163–1189] by determining least upper bounds.

Infrastructure is one of the most crucial pillars of productivity in any economy. Pushing infrastructure development and particularly organizing funds for infrastructure projects have been the biggest challenge in developing nations. The present study was taken up to review the infrastructure development and its financing in India. The study intended to (1) study the infrastructure development in India in the 11th and 12th Five Year Plan, (2) examine the sources used for infrastructure financing in India, (3) assess the actions taken by government to facilitate infrastructure financing and (4) propose measures to augment infrastructure financing to overcome infrastructure deficit in the country. It was found that though Government of India and Reserve Bank of India have taken several initiatives to facilitate infrastructure financing, there still exists a vast gap between supply side and the demand side. Some of the recommendations given in the paper include the need to evolve innovative business models and mitigate administrative glitches to ensure larger private participation; exploit the untapped potential of diaspora; revisit the statutory liquidity ratio norms for banks; evolve the municipal bond market; boost regional integration and improved connectivity through creation of corridors between sub-continental regions, which would not only bridge the finance gap but also the knowledge gap, etc.

As a part of financial sector reforms, the Reserve Bank of India is committed to a reduction in the Cash Reserves Ratio (CRR) and the Statutory Liquidity Ratio (SLR). This paper by L M Bhole examines this issue critically and argues that the present economic conditions as well as the future economic scenario in India do not warrant a reduction in the CRR and the SLR.
