INTRODUCTION TO SERVICE SECTOR

Every economy consists of three sectors. They are primary sector (extraction such as
mining, agriculture and fishing), secondary sector (manufacturing) and the tertiary sector
(service sector). Economies tend to follow a developmental progression that takes them from a
heavy reliance on primary, towards the development of manufacturing and finally towards a
more service-based structure. Historically, manufacturing tends to be more open to
international trade and competition than services. As a result, there has been a tendency for the
first economies to industrialize to come under competitive attack by those seeking to
industrialize later. India's services sector has always served the country’s economy well and
currently accounting near about 60 per cent of the gross domestic product (GDP). In this
regard, the financial services sector has been an important contributor.

The service sector consists of the soft parts of the economy such as insurance,
government, tourism, banking, retail, education, and social services. In soft-sector
employment, people use time to deploy knowledge assets, collaboration assets, and process-
engagement to create productivity, effectiveness, performance improvement potential and
sustainability. Service industry involves the provision of services to businesses as well as final
consumers. Services may involve transport, distribution and sale of goods from producer to a
consumer as may happen in wholesaling and retailing, or may involve the provision of a
service, such as in pest control or entertainment. Goods may be transformed in the process of
providing a service, as happens in the restaurant industry or in equipment repair. However, the
focus is on people interacting and serving the customers rather than transforming physical
goods.
