The Institute for Studies in Industrial Development (ISID) is a public-funded, non-profit, autonomous institution dedicated to conducting policy research, advocacy, capacity-building, and outreach activities to foster the industrial transformation of India.

**The countries in green are considered to be newly industrialising nations. China and India (in dark green) are special cases.**

Registered on October 7, 1986, under the Indian Societies Registration Act 1860, ISID in 1988, became one of the institutions that are supported by the Indian Council of Social Science Research (ICSSR), (Government of India), through grants-in-aid.
