2. Gone are the days of policy paralysis and license-
quota-control regimes. India Inc. are India’s job-
creators. They are the nation’s wealth-creators.
Together, with mutual trust, we can gain, catalyse
fast and attain sustained national growth.
Creating shared value represents a broader conception of
Adam Smithʼs invisible hand. It opens the doors of the pin
factory to a wider set of influences. It is not philanthropy
but self-interested behavior to create economic value by
creating societal value. If all companies individually
pursued shared value connected to their particular
businesses, societyʼs overall interests would be served.

The private sector not only helps in
achieving the economic objectives but
also impact the social progress of the
country. They solve societal challenges
either by rebuilding business models
around social issues or through
increasing their social investments aimed
at enhancing ease of living.
The study
“Economic and Social Impact Analysis”
assesses the company’s impact beyond
the immediate effect created through
revenue growth.

The factory employs lots of workman,
executives and ancillary staff. Its
operations generate GDP and tax for
the authorities
It also spends money with suppliers
who employ staff, generate GDP and
pay taxes. They use other suppliers in
turn
Employees (including of the suppliers)
spend their wages in the wider
consumer economy, generating more
GDP, jobs and tax revenues
Most of the sectors in the economy
are interdependent. Industries
purchase inputs from other
industries, employ labour and capital
to produce goods that are either sold
to final consumers or to other
industries. These economic flows
between industries are recorded in
the input-output tables.
The input-output tables are used to
quantify the impact of economic
change.
There are three types of impacts that
can be captured using the IO tables –
direct, indirect and induced impact.

8. Hindustan Zinc Ltd. (HZL) was set up in 1966 as a
public sector undertaking. However, as operations
were becoming unviable for the government after a
continuous downward trend in global zinc prices, it
decided to privatise the company in 2001 as a part of
Atal Bihari Vajpayee’s disinvestment plan.
The company, which was barely
breaking even when it was government-
run, witnessed a stark upswing in its
revenue and profits after being taken
over by Vedanta.
Privatization Story:
HINDUSTAN ZINC LIMITED
THE ACTUAL PROFIT AFTER TAX IN 2018
is INR 92,760 million while under government control this would have been INR 4,622 million.
The study highlights how privatization can help our
economy by reviving unviable public sector enterprises.
9. India managed to emerge as a net
exporter of copper since 2012. But due
to the closure of the Tuticorin plant of
Sterlite Copper, this trend was offset in
the year 2018- 2019.
The company also helps India in reducing its import bill and saving precious foreign exchange reserves.

CASE OF STERLITE
Exports grew at an impressive
rate of
26%
3.9%
However, the country’s
remarkable gains from the exports
took a toss and registered a dip of
86.08 %
With a compound annual growth
rate of
between 2017-18 and 2018-19
From 2012-13
to 2017-18
The same year also witnessed a jump of 118.3 percent of increase in the
imports of refined copper.
One major implication of the fall in production is the increase in
India’s import bill. The production of Sterlite in 2017- 18 was 403 KT.
The global copper prices hover around USD 6,200 – 6,300 per tonne.
This implies that the closure of Sterlite has costed a hefty
loss of around USD 2.5 billion to the country.
