  Abstract: Emerging Economy Studies, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 107-114, November 2021.
  Cities stand at the forefront of climate adaptation as they face the risk of disastrous climate change impacts. Indian cities are vulnerable to climate change impacts due their geographic location; therefore, they need to build climate-resilient infrastructure to survive, adapt, and grow. Investing in climate-resilient projects will help cities in preventing climate disaster cost and will result in swift recovery from disaster. However, several challenges are constraining Indian cities to finance climate-resilient projects. Cities can use novel ways to raise capital from mainstream financers. Innovative financial instruments, mechanisms, and business models and the judicious use of public capital can help municipalities attract private capital. Cities should smartly select projects and financial instruments and deploy appropriate financial strategy to raise capital from private financers.

  Abstract: Emerging Economy Studies, Ahead of Print.
  In India, a national lockdown was enforced following the novel COVID-19 pandemic coronavirus. This article addresses social, psychological, and health issues following the lockdown, concentrating on women of all strata in India. A literature search was conducted using Google Scholar. Besides, current guidelines, including those of the World Health Organization and publications from a range of nonacademic outlets (e.g., news website publications), have been accessed. National lockdown programs have resulted in financial losses and mass concern and agony due to factors such as a sense of cornering and loss of control. We interviewed 21 Indian women from different ages and professional backgrounds. The outbreak and lockdown of COVID-19 have several implications for people’s lives, specifically females; stress, fear, frequent griefs, children’s school breaks, and lockdown in India have increased psychological issues and concern for the economic future of their families.

  Abstract: Emerging Economy Studies, Ahead of Print.
  This case unravels the market dynamics and consolidation of online travel portals in India whose strong buoyant force ushered a new era for the Indian start-up ecosystem. Several talented and risk-taking individuals followed the vestiges of global technology start-ups and found avenues amalgamating technologies and customers’ need for better services. Based on existing narratives and secondary data, this case delves deep into the decision dilemma covering a wide range of challenges such as capital crunch, market forces, and nuances of mergers and acquisitions (M&A). Furthermore, this case helps in understanding the decisions and the rationale behind them in a high growth start-up ecosystem.

  Abstract: Emerging Economy Studies, Ahead of Print.
  Indian mobile phone manufacturing sector has performed tremendously during the last few years. Currently India is the second biggest mobile phone market in the world. The total number of mobile manufacturing units in India has increased to 268 in 2019 from just 2 in 2014. Together these units employ 6.7 lakh people. The mobile phone sale in India has shown a compounded annual growth rate of 6.66 percent and 6.54 percent, respectively, for volume and value between 2007 and 2018. During 2018 the average monthly sale of mobile phones was 10 million. There were around 75 brands and 3,400 models of mobile handsets in Indian market during 2019. India now accounts for 11 percent of global mobile production, which was only 3 percent in 2014. The mobile manufacturing sector has achieved this success in a very short span of time. Hence, it is important to examine the factors that led to the phenomenal success of the sector. Second, what is the impact of this success to the Indian economy' These are the two prime objectives the current article attempts to explore. The study finds Indian policy initiatives, digital India campaign among a few others have contributed immensely to the growth of the sector. Analyzing the factors like domestic sale and export of mobile handsets, FDI received and employment generated for the period between 2014 and 2019 the study finds a positive impact created by this sector to the Indian economy.
