The year 1991 is marked by significant economic reforms in India. The New Industrial Policy of 1991 was the cornerstone of these reforms, which aimed at liberalizing, privatizing, and globalizing the Indian economy. It dismantled the complex ‘License Raj’ system, liberalized foreign trade and investment policies, and reduced the role of the public sector.
The 1991 New Industrial Policy initiated the shift towards a market-oriented economy in India.
