INTRODUCTION
The export-led growth model was initially upheld with the success of Asia's miracle countries, which achieved extraordinarily high growth between the 1970s and mid-1990s, supposedly through export promotion. The growth records of Asian newly industrializing countries (NICs) - in particular, Hong Kong, Singapore, Korea and Taiwan, second-generation NICs (Malaysia and Thailand) - are cited as such examples.

INTRODUCTION
Over the last thirty years these NICs have approximately doubled their standards of living every ten years. China is the latest country to join this group The World Bank (1993) perceives that the experiences of these countries serve as a model for development, a view also supported by the US Agency for International Development and the International Monetary Fund

BUT, THE SUPPORT FOR EXPORTLED GROWTH IS NOT UNIVERSAL. CRITICS POINT OUT THAT THE EXPERIENCES IN THE EAST AND SOUTHEAST ASIAN COUNTRIES ARE UNIQUE IN MANY WAYS AND NOT NECESSARILY SUSTAINABLE AND REPLICABLE IN OTHER COUNTRIES.

A near-collapse in international trade that followed a synchronized global recession in 2008 has seriously dented Asias confidence in this growth policy as demand from major developed economies plummeted, leading to the International Monetary Fund anticipating a double-digit contraction in world trade volume. Most of the critics argued that the emphasis on export-led growth of most East Asia countries had a series of negative effects.

It prevented the development of domestic market growth reinforced the dependency of developing countries on the developed world not an optimal strategy any longer and it is risky and dependent on the consumption pattern of others
Export-led growth can work for first comers, but it falls apart once all try to clamber on board the export-led bandwagon. If true, the export-led growth paradigm will find itself checkmated while new supplier countries will be unable to compete with China.

INDIAS CASE:
In this paper the case of India has been analyzed with respect to export-led growth strategy and domestic demand led growth strategy. It has been tried to find out which strategy has contributed more to the countrys development.

CONCLUSIONS
It is argued by Jesus Felipe (2003) that the encouragement of a gradual shift to Domestic Demand Led Growth is a welcome effort. However, perhaps choosing either export-led growth or domestic demand led growth is not the issue. Firstly, because these two strategies need not be incompatible strategies. Secondly, because the countries in the region need some form of export-led growth to achieve economies of scale. It is about achieving a golden combination between export-led growth and domestic demand led growth. And Thirdly, because the discussion of the policies to resume growth has to be framed in the more general context of what is constraining growth today

CONCLUSIONS
CONTD.
It is proved on the basis of the above empirical analysis that growth of India is based on a combination of both domestic demand components and exports. In fact, in terms of technology deepening and "learning by doing," growth in both sectors will be complementary and mutually reinforcing. successful and sustained growth requires growth in both domestic demand and net exports. It is when one strategy is overemphasized at the expense of the other that the growth strategy becomes unstable. 18
CONCLUSIONS CONTD.
In the words of Blecker: What is not feasible is for all countries to attempt to achieve trade surpluses by promoting their exports while simultaneously restricting their imports or repressing consumer demand
