About

I am a Professor in Economics, teaching in Pondicherry University, India since 2010. I have taught papers in Macroeconomics, Money and Banking, Econometrics, Theories of Growth, and Indian Economy. Prior to joining Pondicherry University, worked as an economist (first as Research Officer, and then as Assistant Adviser/Assistant General Manager) in the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for over a decade - providing research inputs for policy decisions related to monetary policy and banking regulations/supervision. I also teach at Indian Institute of Management (IIM), Kozhikode as a visiting faculty. My areas of research interest include monetary economics, banking developments, business environment in India, and related contemporary issues. I have published a large number of papers in professional journals in Economics, and written several columns on contemporary issues in Hindu Business Line, a popular financial newspaper.
