The digital economy in India has developed at a rapid pace in the last two decades. Information technology, mobile internet, digitization, e-commerce, and fintech services have not only changed the ways of production and consumption, but also profoundly influenced the social and economic structure. The purpose of this research is to analyze the development of digital economy, its contribution, and socio-economic impacts. Findings show that while digitalization has increased financial inclusion, employment, punishment, and transparency, on the other hand, challenges of digital divide, cyber security, and inequalities have also emerged.
Abstract [Hindi]
भारत में डिजिटल अर्थव्यवस्था (Digital Economy) पिछले दो दशकों में तीव्र गति से विकसित हुई है। सूचना प्रौद्योगिकी, मोबाइल इंटरनेट, डिजिटलीकरण, ई-कॉमर्स, और फिनटेक सेवाओं ने न केवल उत्पादन और उपभोग के तरीकों को बदला है, बल्कि सामाजिक और आर्थिक ढाँचे पर भी गहरा प्रभाव डाला है। इस शोध का उद्देश्य डिजिटल अर्थव्यवस्था के विकास, इसके योगदान, तथा सामाजिक-आर्थिक प्रभावों का विश्लेषण करना है। शोध से यह स्पष्ट होता है कि डिजिटलाइजेशन ने वित्तीय समावेशन, रोजगार, शिक्षा, और पारदर्शिता में वृद्धि की है, वहीं दूसरी ओर डिजिटल विभाजन (Digital Divide), साइबर सुरक्षा और असमानताओं की चुनौतियाँ भी सामने आई हैं।
