Director’s column
The second half of 2017 was marked by intensive debate on structural features impact- ing the Indian economy. The NIPFP faculty participated actively in contributing to this debate. Our contributions were, of course, analytical, not rhetorical. Thus, we have published work on Corporate Tax Incidence in India, an analysis of revisions in Indian GDP data, the effect of inter-governmental transfers on public services. Our faculty have also addressed several work- shops including macroeconomic and financial institution building, GST, and financial sector reform.
Our flagship public finance work in the second half of 2017 was an analysis of State Finances which incorporates analysis of States Budget 2017-18, revised estimates 2016-17 and Finance Accounts 2015-16. The seminar was extremely well attended by academicians and public officials from the Centre, the States, and the Reserve Bank of India. This has now become a landmark event in the -Pub lic Policy calendar bringing together all stakeholders to discuss our analysis of State Finances which has assumed increased importance over time.
We continue to very strongly focus both on Gender Budgeting and Environmental Issues in Public Finance. Faculty have been involved in presenting on gender equalities and fiscal space as well as international initiatives on gender budgeting in the Asia Pacific. On environmental public finance, we have been working quite actively on public finance and biodiversity, and on analytical issues facing the development of the green bond market in India. We have also presented key work on public finance issues in education and health. Our portfolio in both these areas continues to grow with strong demand.
Our international work continues to be wide in range and scope. Faculty have been subject experts on fiscal policy on economic diversification in the Arab region, on international perspectives on gender budgeting, on international issues facing developing countries trade, development and challenges to globalisation, and the work of the Independent Commis- sion for the Reform of International Corporate Taxation.
We are also extremely happy that the Fifteenth Finance Commission, has requested NIPFP to deliver 4 research papers on different domains of the Commission’s work. This is of great importance to fiscal policy in the country and we are fully geared up to meet this challenge. In addition, we continue to work with key partners in the central and state govern- ments on different fiscal reform initiatives which require mobilisation of the entire senior faculty, ably supported by younger colleagues.
Going forward, we have a lot of important policy & research to execute and complete and we have a very busy 2018.
