摘要

India’s science, technology, and innovation ecosystem has evolved significantly over the past few decades, emerging as a major contributor to global knowledge production and innovation. The steady rise in research publications, improved performance in global innovation indices, and the rapid expansion of the startup ecosystem reflect the growing depth of India’s scientific capabilities. This progress has been achieved despite relatively modest levels of investment and persistent structural inefficiencies. With Gross Expenditure on Research and Development (GERD) remaining well below that of leading economies, and with bottlenecks affecting researchers throughout the research lifecycle, there is a clear need to re-examine and strengthen the enabling environment for R&D in the country. Improving the “Ease of Doing Research & Development (EoDR&D)” is therefore central not only to enhancing research productivity, but also to ensuring that scientific efforts translate effectively into technological and socio-economic outcomes aligned with India’s long-term vision of becoming a knowledge-driven economy.
