Abstract

We analyze post 1991 liberalization Indian economy using the Monetary Business Cycle Accounting framework. We use quarterly National Accounts data from 1996.Q1-2017.Q4, and we find that efficiency wedges explain up to 68% of fluctuations in output and 40% of hours worked, while investment wedges explain up to half of consumption and investment. Up to 42% of inflation is accounted for by the Taylors rule wedge. We also show that non-food credit to nominal GDP ratio correlates with investment wedge, and total emoluments to profits ratio correlates with labor wedge.
