Agglomeration and Productivity: Evidence from Indian Manufactuaring

Abstract: This study analyses the impact of industrial agglomeration on the total factor productivity (TFP) of Indian manufacturing. We employ plant-level data from the Annual Survey of Industries (ASI) to measure TFP and industrial agglomeration. Our econometric analysis discerns a positive impact of industrial agglomeration on plant productivity. In addition, we find that the larger plants are the beneficiaries of productivity gains associated with agglomeration. Further, our findings are robust to alternate … Show more

“…Industrial agglomeration is the carrier for microeconomic subjects to engage in technological innovation or efficiency improvement activities. This is because its supporting capacity determines the efficiency of technological progress or technical efficiency improvement to a large extent (Wei et al, 2020;Ramachandran et al, 2020).…”

“…ASI fills this void by providing aggregate labour data at the plant/unit level. Some recent studies on Indian manufacturing businesses have also used ASI owing to its broad coverage, for example, Ramachandran et al (2020), Kailthya and Kambhampati (2022) and Kapoor (2022).…”
