ASEAN- India free trade agreement: an assessment of merchandise exports and imports.

The general objective of the present paper is to review the provisions in India-ASEAN FTA and merchandise exports and imports between both parties. This is expected to provide deeper insight in to the research questions about the structural transformation in exports and imports of India and ASEAN especially after the formation of ASEAN–India Free Trade Agreement. The present paper is also expected to provide an analysis about the direction of India’s trade with ASEAN. The study finds that almost all ASEAN countries use the FTA route to engage trade with India. Indian export baskets have not undergone changes even after the formation of the ASEAN –India FTA, but the import baskets have undergone a structural transformation during 2000-2014 period. Also imports grew faster than exports during the period of analysis. Major destinations of India’s exports are Malaysia, Singapore and Vietnam while major sources of imports are Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. Many of these countries enjoy greater productivity in agricultural sector as their farm production is incorporated in more capitalist production mode. The study finds that the lists are not prepared with scientific impact assessment techniques, where the non farming community largely represented by the organisation in this field during the trade negotiations will help them to put their commodities in the lists to which they are preference towards

Design and Fabrication of Automatic Ground Clearance Adjustment System

Vehicle ride comfort is one of the most important performances of vehicle; the research of automotive ride comfort is getting more and more important. In this paper is to design and develop a system that is “Automatic ground clearance adjustment system” to overcome this problem by adjusting the ground clearance over this particular time period. Automatic ground clearance adjustment system mainly consists of six major parts such as Chassis, D.C motor, Embedded Development board with Radio Frequency Modules (Encoder & Decoder) and micro controller, IR sensors, alarms, indicators and batteries. The average time required by the system to vary the ground clearance of the vehicle is two seconds. The cost of implementing this system is also low. By implementing “Automatic ground clearance adjustment system”, we can vary the ground clearance of the vehicle. So there is need of developing a system which can vary the ground clearance of the vehicle

Management of midline diastema using pressable ceramics and zirconia crowns: a case series

Maxillary and mandibular midline diastema (MMD) is frequently observed in various populations. The occurrence of MMD can be attributed to multiple factors, including etiological, developmental, and patient habits. The diverse options to treat MMD are orthodontic correction, direct and indirect restorations, crowns, and veneers. This case series presents instances of closing maxillary and mandibular midline diastema using e.max veneers and zirconia crowns
