Abstract:
Globalization has ensured that none of the economies of the world stays insulated from the global economic crisis. But there was a general belief that the emerging economies could remain largely apart from the global economic meltdown and provide an alternative engine of growth to the world economy. The effect of the crisis on the Indian economy was not significant in the beginning. The argument soon proved unfounded as the global crisis intensified and spread to the emerging economies. This had a knock-on effect initially on the IT sector all over the world and Indian IT industry could not insulate itself from the adverse developments in the international financial markets. This paper interrogates the implications of the global economic meltdown on the Indian Economy within the framework of a consolidated IT Industry.

Key words: Economic development, Economic meltdown, global economic crisis and globalization.
