Institutional speed as an economic variable

Contract enforcement timelines and the average duration of commercial litigation remain significantly longer in India than in peer economies at similar income levels — a friction that shows up directly in the cost of capital and the willingness of firms to invest at scale.[1]

State capacity & federal execution gaps

Much of the variance in how well national schemes actually land — from PLI disbursement to infrastructure execution — traces back to state-level administrative capacity rather than the design of the national policy itself.
