Economy for UPSC Made Easy: Full Syllabus Breakdown & Strategy by Dr. Mrunal Patel
Stop Hating Economy! UPSC Economy Syllabus Guide + Booklist + 6-Pillar Strategy | Mrunal Patel
UPSC Prelims 2025 Economy Questions Analysed | Smart Study Plan by Dr. Mrunal Patel
YouTube Description:
In this detailed lecture, renowned UPSC educator and Economy expert Dr. Mrunal Patel decodes the Economy syllabus for UPSC CSE Prelims and Mains. He explains why Economy feels unstructured and boring compared to Polity, History or Geography, and reveals the biggest mistakes students make while preparing Economy.
Dr. Mrunal discusses the real sources of UPSC Economy questions – not just NCERTs or last 1-year current affairs, but Economic Survey definitions, Budget announcements, India Year Book schemes, PIB releases, international agreements, and even random internet topics like syndicated lending. He shares why NCERT Class 11 & 12 Macro & Micro books give poor return on investment and why pure theory questions are rare in Prelims.
He introduces his proven 6-Pillar framework for Economy:
Money, Banking, Finance, Insurance, Share Market
Budget, Taxation, Fiscal Deficit, Disinvestment
International Trade, FDI, Rupee-Dollar, WTO
Sectors of Economy – Agriculture, Manufacturing, Services, GDP, Inflation, Employment
Infrastructure
Human Development, Poverty, Health, Education
Dr. Mrunal explains why he starts with Pillar 1 (6–7 questions every year) instead of Human Development (despite it being heavily mentioned in syllabus), and how this modular structure helps even if you drop in/out of the course. He analyses 2025 Prelims Economy questions pillar-wise (7 from Pillar 1, 6 from Pillar 2, etc.) and shows how patterns shift year to year.
For Mains, he covers where Economy appears – GS Paper 1 (poverty, globalisation), GS Paper 2 (welfare schemes), GS Paper 3 (inclusive growth, agriculture, exports), GS Paper 4 (corporate governance), and even Essay.
Booklist recommendations:
Replace boring NCERT Macro with Maharashtra or Tamil Nadu Class 11 Economy textbooks (free PDFs available) – super easy language.
For Micro – only 2 questions in 13 years – read Maharashtra book or his summary notes just 3 weeks before Prelims.
For theory & recent developments – his own Economy book/notes (basic to advanced + 5-year old events like GST, NEFT zero charges, Bitcoin).
Current affairs – his free Winter Economy series + PIB summaries (not just last 1 year).
Mains – Class 11 NCERT “India’s Economic Development”, recent Economic Surveys (intro + conclusion only), The Hindu Book of Editorials (Hindi available).
