Empirical inferences about particular forms of agents' inflation expectations are crucial for the conduct of monetary policy. This paper is an attempt to explore the properties of the Reserve Bank of India's survey data of households' inflation expectations. The paper shows that survey...

Purpose - Among the many factors fueling the inflationary tendencies in an economy such as monetary shocks, structural shocks, demand shocks, external shocks and demographic changes, the issue of inflation (INF) has also been found to be related to fiscal policy decisions of the government. The...

The paper seeks to obtain an optimal asymmetric trimmed mean-based core inflation measure in the class of trimmed mean measures when the distribution of price changes is leptokurtic and skewed to the right for any given period. Several estimators based on asymmetric trimmed mean approach are...

The paper aims to examine the dynamic impact of openness on inflation in India applying by an Autoregressive Distributed Lag (ARDL) Bound testing approach. Empirical evidence shows that there is a unique and stable long-run relationship between inflation and other variables, such as trade...

Maintaining a stable price level featured by low inflation rate has remained a prioritized objective of macroeconomic management of all the economies including India. Among many other determinants, this study examines the issue of inflation from the fiscal point of view. A unidirectional...

What can we learn about the entanglement of a multipartite system and residual correlations beyond two-tangle if we have access only to two-qubits at a time? Algebraic analysis of two-qubit marginal states of a multiqubit system in a pure state yields monogamy constraints at different levels on...

In developing world, the risk behavior of farmers is very crucial as their daily risk and uncertainty decisions affect their livelihood and overall well-being in the long run. Recent studies related to risky choices among poor farmers found varied results in various countries. Present study...
