The journal became the organ of the Indian Economic Association, which was founded in 1918 with the object of general advancement of economic knowledge. Published quarterly in January, April, July and October, the journal had the stated ‘three-fold object of providing a medium for the publication of articles on Indian Economics by authors of academic standing or authoritative position; furnishing a convenient vehicle for publication of original investigations; and disseminating information about the economic activities of other countries’.
