Abstract

This paper investigates the link between published tariff rates and realized tariff rates using Indian inter-industry manufacturing sector data over three Plan periods. Understanding this link is important as economies liberalize trade and must deal with the potential revenue shortfalls: if the published and realized rates exhibit independent idiosyncratic behavior, it is difficult to calculate the actual implications of changes in the published tariff rate.
