Introduction India is the second most populous country in the world after China. Its population surpasses 1.3 billion, making it the largest democracy (BBC, 2019). Its area is over 3 million square kilometres, and major religions are Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Sikhism, Buddhism (BBC, 2019). India is a country of controversies, as it is a home of the oldest tradition, such as caste system and arranged marriages, and the latest innovation, which can be noticed in Bangalore, a hub for the international software development business. India belongs to the BRICS (Brazil, Russia, India, China, and South Africa) countries, which are a group of developing economies which are expected to become leading suppliers of manufactured goods, services, and raw materials in the world (Majaski, 2020). The present report provides a concise macroeconomic overview and discussion of employment rates in the country to establish trends in GDP and employment. Explanation of Topics Macroeconomics is a complex subject that includes several aspects. Typical topics of macroeconomics include a brief macroeconomic overview, inflation and interest rates, currency and foreign exchange, international trade, employment rates, fiscal policy, monetary policy, and supply-side policy. First, the present paper will focus on macroeconomic overview, which includes observation of market size measured in the gross domestic product (GDP), recent developments in key economic measures, and government initiatives. This aspect of macroeconomics helps to acquire an overall understanding of the level of economic development of a country. Second, the paper provides a discussion of the unemployment rate, which is a percentage of unemployed workers in the total labour force. The analysis of this topic helps to understand how well a country uses its human resources to achieve economic prosperity. Factors Affecting Macroeconomics Macroeconomics in India is affected by a myriad of factors, both economic and non-economic.

Currently, India builds its economic growth on the production of manufactured goods, which requires an abundance of natural resources and cheap low-skilled workforce (Sethy, 2018). Cheap labour also led to an influx of international investments that favour economic development (Sethy, 2018). The occupational structure of India shifted since the 1990s, and the percentage of people employed in the agricultural sector decreased considerable, which also positively affects economic growth (Sethy, 2018). Finally, economic development in India was supported by technological advancement that made production more efficient (Sethy, 2018). While economic factors are crucial for all aspects of macroeconomics, there are also non-economic factors that should be considered. First, in recent years the government’s strategic planning also positively affected economic development through efficient policy implementation (Sethy, 2018). Second, the level of education has increased considerably during the last two decades, which positively affected the creation of human capital (Sethy, 2018). Third, recently, the social structure of India has taken a step away from the caste system to social equality and mobility (Sethy, 2018). Finally, the Indian government is continuously increasing dedication to the proper maintenance of law and order, which i
