Abstract
This paper reviews India’s experience to understand how services sector liberalisation can generate (welfare) gains for developing countries, in particular vis-à -vis its employment generation potential. The analysis has been based on India’s experience of an increasingly open service sector and reviews the different channels through which economic gains are garnered from openness to trade in services. [WP No. 210].
