The economy of the IVC is a dubious section with very less certainty of facts available. But we will try to reconstruct the economic model with whatever scanty we are having about the IVC agriculture, industry and infrastructure. Agriculture does not appear to be the predominant economic activity. On the contrary, trade and commerce was the most widespread and dominant activity throughout the area covered by the IVC. Infrastructure is quite evident – use of canals and probable use of roads for transportation of goods. The foreign trade was likely to exist, but the scale is debatable. However the abundance of industrial and commercial activities in IVC ensure the existence of a bustling foreign trade. We will dig deeper into the issue in this lesson. We will also try to recognize industrial centres of the IVC.
