Abstract

We discuss here researches on econophysics done in India in the last two decades. The term ‘econophysics’ was formally coined in India (Kolkata) in 1995. Since then many research papers, books, reviews, etc., have been written by scientists. Many institutions are now involved in this research field and many conferences are being organized here. In this article we give an account (of papers, books, reviews, papers in proceedings volumes, etc.) of this research from India.
