Brainstorming 2012: Economy

Hello Friends,
Hoping your prep is accelerating towards its destination. :) Please find below a list of important topics. Due to paucity of time, I have poached the list-apparently it is from Vajiram (a premier coaching institute in Delhi). Topics in red ink have related posts in this blog. Please search under the labels: 'Economy' or 'Economic Survey 2012.' Apart from this list too there are many posts in the blog- hope they are useful to you.
Keep your spirits high
