Here we detail about the following nine important roles played by public sector in Indian economy, i.e., (1) Generation of Income, (2) Capital Formation, (3) Employment, (4) Infrastructure, (5) Strong Industrial Base, (6) Export Promotion and Import Substitution, (7) Contribution to Central Exchequer, (8) Checking Concentration of Income and Wealth, and (9) Removal of Regional Disparities.

1. Generation of Income:

Public sector in India has been playing a definite positive role in generating income in the economy. The share of public sector in net domestic product (NDP) at current prices has increased from 7.5 per cent in 1950-51 to 21.7 per cent in 2003-04. Again the share of public sector enterprises only (excluding public administration and defence) in NDP was also increased from 3.5 per cent in 1950-51 to 11.12 per cent in 2005-06.

2. Capital Formation:

Public sector has been playing an important role in the gross domestic capital formation of the country. The share of public sector in gross domestic capital formation has increased from 3.5 per cent during the First Plan to 9.2 per cent during the Eighth Plan. The comparative shares of public sector in the gross capital formation of the country also recorded a change from 33.67 per cent during the First Plan to 50 per cent during the, Sixth Plan and then declined to 21.9 per cent in 2005-06.



But the Public sector is not playing a significant role in respect of mobilization of savings. The share of public sector in gross domestic savings increased from 1.7 per cent of GNP during 1951-56 to only 3.6 per cent during 1980-85. During 1980s, the share of public sector in gross domestic savings declined from 16.2 per cent in 1980-81 to 7.7 per cent in 1988-89.

In this connection Narottam Shah observed, “The failure of the public sector contributes only 21 per cent of the nation’s savings; that also in part, through heavy taxation and semi-fictitious profits of the Reserve Bank. The remaining 79 per cent of the nation’s savings came from the private sector.” Again the share of public sector in gross domestic savings increased from 4.78 per cent in 1990-91 to 6.61 per cent in 2005-06.

3. Employment:

Public sector is playing an important role in generating employment in the country.

Public sector employments are of two categories, i.e:


(a) Public sector employment in government administration, defence and other government services and

(b) Employment in public sector economic enterprises of both Centre, State and Local bodies. In 1971, the public sector offered employment opportunities to about 11 million persons but in 2003 their number rose to 18.6 million showing about 69 per cent increase during this period.

Again in 2003, the public sector offered employment opportunities to 18.6 million persons which was 69 per cent of the total employment generated in the country as compared to 71 per cent employment generated in 1991. However, there is considerable decline in the annual growth rate of employment in the public sector from 1.53 per cent during 1983-1994 to 0.80 per cent during 1994- 2004.

Moreover, about 69.0 per cent of the total employments are generated in the public sector. Moreover, at the end of March 2004, about 51.7 per cent of the total employment (i.e. about 96 lakh) generated in public sector is from Government administration, community, social and personal services and the remaining 48.3 per cent (i.e., nearly 89.7 lakh) of the employment in public sector is generated by economic enterprises run by the Centre, State and Local Governments.

The maximum number of employment is derived from transport, storage and communications (28.1 lakh). The public sector manufacturing is the next industry which generated employment to the extent of 11.1 lakh persons.

4. Infrastructure:

Without the development of infrastructural facilities, economic development is impossible. Public sector investment on infrastructure sector like power, transportation, communication, basic and heavy industries, irrigation, education and technical training etc. has paved the way for agricultural and industrial development of the country leading to the overall development of the economy as a whole. Private sector investments are also depending on these infrastructural facilities developed by the public sector of the country.
