This paper estimates plant-specific domestic resource cost of all urea plants in the country, and aggregate measure of support for selected commodities through power subsidies. It also gives some policy options both for the centre to tackle fertiliser subsidy and to the states to minimise power subsidy. - Reproduced aPower industry - India aFertilizers - India aAgricultural subsidies aSubsidies aNarayanan, Sudha aEconomic and Political Weekly a44080 c44080d44080 00104070aIIPAbIIPAd2018-07-19hVolume no: 35, Issue no: 10pAR44487r2018-07-19w2018-07-19yAR
