  • Detecting the Role of Agriculture and Industry Value Added, Energy, Capital Flow, and Openness to Trade upon Environmental Kuznets Curve for India
    J. C. Sharmiladevi
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2024
    This study revisits the environmental Kuznets curve for India, considering unique variables like agriculture and industry value added, fossil fuel energy consumption, inward foreign direct investment, openness to trade, economic growth and carbon dioxide (CO2) emission. The study results indicate the presence of EKC for India, indicating a positive long-term equilibrium relationship between agriculture and industry value added and fossil fuel energy consumption with CO2 emission. Inward FDI and trade openness have a negative relation with CO2 emission, supporting the fact that the environmental regulations for international investments and trade in India are becoming more assertive. At the same time, India needs stringent regulations on emissions from the agriculture and industry sectors.
  • Women in law enforcement: The Indian perspective
    Nishtha Gupta, Sameera Raees, Sharmiladevi J. C.
    Consumer and Organizational Behavior in the Age of AI, 2024
    This study explores the Indian viewpoint on women in law enforcement, with a particular emphasis on public attitudes and how gender diversity may improve the efficacy of the system. The study examines the general public views of women in law enforcement and the difficulties they confront; secondly, it looks into the way gender equality affects agencies' effectiveness. The primary results show that the public has a combination of misunderstandings and awareness. While some see equal chances, others continue to have preconceived notions about women. The majority of those surveyed acknowledge that gender diversity has a favourable effect on law enforcement personnel's ability to solve problems. It is shown that obstacles exist, such as ingrained biases and preconceptions, which emphasize the necessity of transforming projects. This study offers insightful information about the attitudes and difficulties encountered by women in Indian law enforcement. The results highlight how crucial it is to deal with prejudices and encourage inclusivity in order to create a more efficient and fair legal system.
  • Agricultural Value Added in BRICS: A Panel Data Study
    Sharmiladevi Jekka Chandrasekaran
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2024
    Sustainable agricultural development is essential for ensuring food security, economic growth and ecological balance, which is a challenging phenomenon to achieve. This phenomenon is studied in the case of BRICS, considering agricultural value added, economic growth, openness to trade, carbon dioxide emission and net foreign direct investment. Panel unit root test, Fixed and Random Effect Model, Panel Cointegration test and Panel Causality are studied. Results of the analysis indicate that in all the BRICS countries, agricultural value added is significant to economic growth, inward foreign direct investment is reduced with agricultural growth, and inward foreign direct investment causes trade openness.
  • Impact Study of Foreign Direct Investment on Carbon Dioxide Emission, Economic Growth, Trade Openness for India following ARDL Approach
    J. C. Sharmiladevi
    International Journal of Energy Economics and Policy, 2024
    Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) is instrumental in increasing growth and development in many countries. The development outcomes of FDI must also be analysed, considering the long-term holistic implications of economic growth and environmental implications. Environmental consequences of FDI need to be analysed to better understand the developmental potentials of FDI. The objective of this study is to analyse the equilibrium relationship among carbon dioxide emission, inward FDI, trade openness, and economic growth considering India by using an autoregressive distributed lag model. This model overcomes the effect of endogeneity and indicates that there is a strong cointegrating relation between all the variables with significant long-run effects for economic growth and trade openness and insignificant results with carbon dioxide emission and inward FDI.
  • Analysing the evolution and patterns of the gig economy: a bibliometric examination of growth and trends
    Soumya Vadavi, Jekka Chandrasekaran Sharmiladevi
    Cogent Business and Management, 2024
    This article examines global academic research and provides an overview of the gig economy. The article provides a comprehensive framework based on a literature review, offering insights into the evolution of research trends, key themes, and collaborative dynamics within this evolving field. Our study focuses on the gig economy as a broader economic system characterised by short-term contracts, freelance work, and gig employment. This article presents a bibliometric analysis using the VOS Viewer tool; we examined 341 documents from the Scopus database covering January 2016 to March 2024. Our findings reveal a significant increase in the gig economy publication research. We identified three contemporary cluster themes, which include “The Changing Work Environment in the Digital Age,” “Navigating the Contemporary Labour Landscape,” and “Empowering the Future Workforce.” The article offers practical insights into the gig economy, suggests guidelines that will enhance working conditions and the welfare of gig employees and provides valuable implications for researchers, shedding light on the current state and potential future directions of the gig economy.

  • Impact study of agricultural value added on foreign direct investment, economic development, trade openness for India following ARDL approach
    J.C Sharmiladevi
    Cogent Economics and Finance, 2023
    This research aims to identify the impact of agriculture, forest and fishing value-added on international business, capital flow, and economic growth for India from 2000 to 2022, by examining short-term and long-term equilibrium using the Auto Regressive Distributive lag (ARDL) approach. Agriculture value added is taken as a dependent variable, and inward Foreign Direct Investment (FDI), stock of net FDI, economic growth and trade openness are taken as independent variables. Results indicate that there exists a long-term and short-term relationship between agriculture value added, economic growth and trade openness. Economic growth and trade openness have a statistically significant relationship with agricultural value added in the short and long run. Inward FDI and stock of FDI are not significant to agriculture value added. ARDL Bound test results indicate that there is a long-term cointegrating relation among the variables. The error correction term is also strong and significant (−13.96), suggesting resistance to shocks. Existing literatures coverage on agriculture and international business is scarce in the Indian context, and this research will be significant in that line. The results of this study resonate with the findings of a few studies conducted in other geographical areas, indicating the fact that the receptivity and absorptive capacity prevailing in an economy play a dominant role in receiving maximum benefits from inward capital flow leading to economic growth. This research reinstates that agriculture still influences economic growth in India. Openness is essential for creating a conducive atmosphere for economic development. The study also indicates the direction for future research.

  • Cointegration and causality study among inward FDI, Economic growth and exports: An Indian perspective
    Jekka Chandrasekaran Sharmiladevi
    International Journal of Asian Business and Information Management, 2020
    One significant feature of liberalisation for India has been a greater openness to foreign direct investment (FDI) as a means of acquiring technologies, skills and access to international markets, and of entering dynamic trade and production. The study analyses the empirical relationship between inward FDI, economic growth and exports of India from 1970-71 to 2013-2014. The objective of this article is to investigate the relationship between FDI, economic growth and exports empirically. The error correction coefficient value indicates a 15.02% movement back towards equilibrium following a shock to the model, one time period later. OLS indicate significant long-term causality relationship among the variables with high R2 value to the tune of 0.758660. The Wald Test establishes short-run causality from economic growth to inward FDI, and from exports to inward FDI. A one-way causality relationship is running from exports to inward FDI. Economic growth causes inward FDI, but, inward FDI is not causing economic growth. Exports cause inward FDI, and inward FDI does not cause exports.
  • Determinants of inward foreign direct investment in India - A factor analysis approach
    J.C. Sharmiladevi
    International Journal of Public Sector Performance Management, 2019
    Foreign direct investment (FDI) is widely perceived as an important resource for expediting development. Many factors play significantly in influencing the amount of FDI. The objective of this study is to analyse the various factors which influence and determine FDI inflows into India and spot those determinants. Variables examined includes, net FDI inflow, labour cost proxied by workers' remittances and receipts, urbanisation measured by population in large cities, inflation measured from GDP deflator, human capital measured through gross enrolment in secondary schools, trade, official exchange rate and gross domestic product expressed as a percentage of FDI. Factor analysis is used for identifying and grouping of variables. Based on principal component analysis and varimax with Kaiser normalisation, two common factors identified. Regression identifies the power of the two variables in influencing inward FDI. Results of regression indicate that internal economic conditions and external economic conditions together explain 91.80 percentage of inward FDI.
