Promise of new economy

By Our Special Correspondent

MUMBAI, AUG. 28. The Reserve Bank of India today stated that the new economy sectors continue to enjoy a competitive edge, despite the underlying domestic industrial conditions and the global slowdown.

``The fast growing sectors, that is, software, knowledge-based industries, information technology enabled services, pharmacology, biotechnology and entertainment services carry the potential of generating increasing returns to scale and sustaining the step-up in the growth path of the economy,'' the RBI stated in its Annual Report 2000-01.

According the RBI, these industries have inherent confidence and the capabilities to expand rapidly and command global leadership.
