2014 India Enterprise Survey

The World Bank interviewed a representative sample of the private sector in India. The sample consisted of 9281 business establishments surveyed from June 2013 and December 2014. The Enterprise Survey covers several aspects of the business environment as well as performance measures for each firm. This report presents following highlights from the survey: firms are performing relatively well in terms of employment growth despite poor annual sales growth; the quality of electricity provision varies widely across states and territories; corruption levels vary significantly across locations in India; Indian firms outperform comparator countries in the use of technology but lag behind China and Turkey; half of Indian firms report competing against unregistered or informal firms; and the Indian private sector considers corruption and electricity as their biggest obstacles.
