Abstract

The perspective of this research is to explore how much India’s protectionism in the services exports has been. This study used the annual data from UNTCAD and United Nations Statistics Division for the period of 1980-2018 and presented a new method to measure the degree of a country’s export policy interference. The results show that India has had revealed comparative advantages in the services export for most years during the sample period, while she has adopted strong export promotion policies. After 1996, India’s policy interference in the services exports suddenly strengthened. This research concluded that India has attempted to improve the services export comparative advantages by export promotion policies.
