Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister (EAC-PM)
The EAC-PM is an independent body constituted to provide advice on economic and related issues to the Government of India, specifically to the Prime Minister. It produces working papers, policy notes, and thematic reports under the EAC-PM Working Paper Series, but its recommendations are advisory and non-binding.
- Composition: a Chairman, 3 Full-Time Members, and 11 Part-Time Members; current notable members include Sanjay Kumar Mishra, Sanjeev Sanyal, and Shamika Ravi.
- EAC-PM is distinct from the NITI Aayog: NITI Aayog is a policy think-tank and planning body with a broader mandate, while EAC-PM specifically advises the Prime Minister.
- The EAC-PM has produced influential working papers on topics including data governance, income distribution, and education — its papers often precede policy announcements.
- The current paper is EAC-PM Working Paper 44/2026 (published March 2026).
