Introduction
Global economic meltdown has affected almost all the countries. Strongest of American, European and Japanese companies are facing severe crisis of liquidity and credit. India is not isolated either. Although, Indias cautious approach towards reforms has saved it from possibly disastrous implications, Indian economy is also facing a slowdown. The prime reason being, world trade does not function in isolation. All the economies are interlinked to each other and any major fluctuation in trade balance and economic conditions causes numerous problems for all other economies. According to official data, industrial growth has plummeted to 1.3% which definitely is a cause of concern for policy makers and industries. 1.3% industrial growth is the lowest IIP(index of industrial production) data ever registered since last ten years. It is also not possible to achieve a yarget of 7.5% GDP growth rate this fiscal. As the global financial and economic crisis deepen, the growth in India would continue to be affected. The external economic environment of India is likely to worsen as the major developed countries contract further and international trade growth slows down sharply. Today the Indian business is facing the following broad risks: A deeper and prolonged recession in the world economy. Future lightening of external funding conditions. Financial stress due to volatile capital flows. Weak domestic demand.
