uring the regime of Bretton Woods, international monetary system was in gold exchange standard or rather dollar exchange standard because US dollar was convertible with gold and all other currencies were convertible to US dollar. The exchange rate system was fixed rate with adjustable with ±1% in either side when 1ounce of gold is equal to 35US$.At Bretton Woods, USA and allied countries rejected Keynes plan and accepted White's plan since USA was the leading and dominant country in the world in terms of international trade, international reserves of gold, capital flows including foreign investment and equity and foreign exchange holdings. Above all, USA was the super power in the world political and military strengths. Therefore, USA could not face any problem to select its currency as key currency to dominate multilateral international payments mechanism. At 1945, India was a colony and its economy was a meagre $30 billion as compared to that US $ 300 billion and that of UK $ 60 billion. During the Bretton Woods era, USA was the creditor country to the world and UK was in war-related debt. India and China tried to lead an effort to unilateral transfers as current account so as to pressure convertibility to encash colonial transfer of sterling balance from UK. India's share of sterling balance in 1945 was 45% or £1.51 billion-the equivalent of $83.93 billion today. After finalisation of Bretton Woods, USA was refused to take India's sterling balance in 1949 where sterling balances were paid dawn in 1956.India was forced to abide by "rule based system of international co-operation". India's capital inflows started to grow unprecedentedly in terms of aids, grants, loans, foreign equities, portfolios and direct investment to meet the needs of development finance, to correct structural imbalance of balance of payments, to counteract cyclical growth of GDP and inflation. India devalued Rupee in 1949 and forced to depreciate again in 1966 due to IMF structural facility of loan. For example, before first plan, India took 100million SDR, in the 2 nd plan and 3 rd plan, it borrowed 200 million and 375 million SDR from IMF and during 1965-1968, India borrowed 415 million SDR from IMF and took 90million SDR under compensatory financing facility (Reddy, 2000). Even in 1966 March, India received US$ 200 million of stand by arrangement from IMF. In 1966 June World Bank sanctioned US$ 900 million for 3 years and USA sanctioned project assistance amounting to US$ 300 million. IDA also approved loans of US$ 295 million and US$ 642 million in 1967-68 and 1968-69 respectively to India (Srinivas, 2017). US current account balance was positive but started to decline after 1963 and tend to negative from 1971.The real exchange index of Dollar started to fall and reached at bottom in 1966 and reached at peak in 1969 then fell down. The ratio of reserve to imports were 22 and 204 for USA and UK in 1951 which fell to 19 (Meltzer, 1991). All these results produced the crisis of reserve currencies. USA and IMF created SDR as reserve and international payments for development finance. The cyclical inflation rate was observed during 1950-1971 although trade openness, international trade volume, living standard increased to a larger extent. But, slowly and steadily US $ liabilities became greater than US gold stock. In 1950, US gold stock was 25billion $ but foreign liabilities were 12 billion dollar. On the other hand, in 1967, US gold II.
Review of Literature Reddy (2000) thought that the relationship between Bretton Woods and India is considered to be mutual benefit through not necessary one of full agreement on many matters. India commands greater respect in Bretton Woods Institutions than any time before for charting its own path towards growth and stability. India's move in Bretton Woods to show and sanction policy of poverty elimination and development in IMF strategy and India wanted to encash convertibility of colonial transfers from U.K. Schuler (2013) also felt similar opinion in the sense that India raised at Bretton Woods on the convertibility of Pound Sterling assets the extent to which the IMF would stress economic development over BOP considerations and quota. Chandavarkar (2001) argued that the role played by Raisman at the Bretton Woods was reflected by India's interest on quota, unilateral payment and policy on development. Simha (1970) thoughtfully explained that India's attitude was bound to be conditioned by special factors such as backwardness, it's appalling poverty, its dismally low standard of living and its just aspirations to make up the long leeway in industrial and agricultural development which should be matched with Bretton Woods developmental plans for major goals. Joshi (1944) acknowledged that India would serve India's interest in international negotiations without being dictated to by Britain. Indian delegates and Raisman echoed in the meeting about RBI's decisions on prioritise development goals, needs of poor countries, special treatment status, and so on. India rightly considered about to maintain domestic price level than to keep up stable exchange rate. On the other hand, India should be allowed to use tariffs and foreign exchange rationing to protect and strengthen local industry. Joshi objected to the omission of any reference to sterling balances and even in the transitional period. He was positive to adjust exchange rate when India was in fundamental disequilibrium although he was in favour of flexible exchange rate being India as an agricultural country and he was indirectly favour fund's proposal of high level of employment with real income maintenance. Helleiner (2015) opined that Keynes singled out Deshmukh's performance on India's role and remarked that it was brilliant representation. But finally, USA chose to oppose underdeveloped phrase in the charter of IMF rather they wrote economically backward countries. On the contrary, India's initiative encouraged IBRD's development mandate to final charter. After the conference, Deshmukh (1974) highlighted the development orientation of Bretton Woods in a speech to an Indian audience. Monboit (2008) said that the USA which since 1944 has turned from the world's biggest creditor to the world's biggest debtor, would cause to regret the position it took at Bretton Woods. Following White plan, the IMF insisted that the foreign exchange reserves maintained by other nations are held in the form of dollars. This is one of the reasons why the US economy does not collapse no matter how much debt it accumulates. Eichengreen (2018) rightly remarked that the conference took place at the time of unquestioned US hegemony over the western alliance and the global economy. America had the intellectual and financial resources with which to drive the reform process. Now it lacks both. Moreover, on the process of future Bretton Woods, he said that it would be useful first step toward making the world a safer financial place and it would minimise the danger that New Bretton Woods conference will go down in history as a failure. World Economic and Social Survey (2017) assessed that Bretton Woods era is the golden age of capitalism when growth of international trade was unprecedented and was created a multilateral international payment system known as Bretton Woods Monetary System and was a positive attempt to aid Europe through Marshall Plan which was a positive experience of development cooperation with successful implementation of sustainable development goal. Marshall plan which accounts 1% of GNP restored productive capacity in western Europe, improved price stability and helped their currencies in post war period. Even, USA started a package of development programme in developing countries through Official Development Assistance (ODA) which accounts 0.7% of GNI which increased to 1% of GNI from 1960.But volatile commodity price and declining prices of primary products remained unsolved stock was 12 billion dollar in comparison with 50 billion US dollar of foreign liabilities. In 1971, US liabilities was 80 billion dollar but US gold stock was only 9 billion dollar (Saderno, 2012). In 1970, oil price shock crumbled down international economy too. In 1971 August, President Nixon was forced to suspend the gold dollar convertibility and ultimately Bretton Woods system collapsed. US hegemony over the international economy started to decline. In 1950In , 1960In and 1970 the world share of export of USA were 16.19%, 15.27% and 14.23% respectively and world import share were 11.93% and 13.48% respectively in 1960 and 1970.The international share of GDP of USA also started to diminish i.e., 27.3% in 1950, 24.25% in 1960, and 22.38% in 1970 respectively. India's world share of GDP was also declined gradually from 4.2% in 1950 to 3.87% in 1960 and 3.41% in 1970 respectively (Maddison, 2007).
The bulk of US grants, credits and assistance to India from 1945 to 1970 reshuffled Indian economy towards development with deficit finance taking huge loan from IMF, IBRD and IDA etc. Whether these capital inflows have significant relation with US export, import and GDP and India's export and import or not is the important econometric study of this paper during the regime of Bretton Woods. issues today. During Bretton Woods, structural imbalance in trade between developed and developing countries, gap of foreign exchange earnings, technological change and competitive devaluation were observed and due to devaluation in UK in 1949 and 1967, devaluation in France in 1967 and declined US gold reserve with negatively moving current account ultimately broke down Bretton Woods system. Balasubrahmonian (n.d.) stated that India's reserves position dropped precipitously from 1947 onwards which forced to draw $115m (80.3% of reserves) from the IMF in 1956-7. The country further borrowed $122.5m from the IMF during 1961-2 and $100m in 1962-3. India took World Bank's soft loan, the International Development Association which were 45% of its total loans in the 1960s to India (roughly $800m) that were utilised as infrastructural development and transportation.
India's Five-Year Plans depended on deficit financing to be plugged by foreign aid. The ratio of foreign aid to new private capital investment between 1948 and 1961 was 6:1. One of the largest donors to India was the United States, which contributed between 1954 and1967 including $3.8bn of PL480 food aid which allowed India to focus Plan expenditures on heavy industry development.
In the 1960s, these dynamics began to shift. American dollar hegemony began to come under strain as the fixed exchange rate regime came under pressure. By 1961, America had abandoned the policy of local currency repayment for dollar loans. The troika of the United States, the World Bank and the IMF, sought to persuade India to devalue, liberalise, imports and gave higher priority to agriculture. This was characterised as the Bank's most significant attempt to use the leverage of its lending to modify macroeconomic policies in a major member country. During mid-1960s, debt multilateralization mediated through the IMF and World Bank had virtually taken place. The bilateral aid relationship between India and America had come under strain, not merely because of the pressure on American gold reserves and the diminished agricultural surplus, but also because of India's rather vocal discomfort with the Vietnam War and her status as leader of the Non-Aligned World. The crisis in India's Five-Year Planning came on the heels of the suspension of American aid during the 1965 War with Pakistan.
Balasubrahmanian (2018) also reminds us that VKRVRao acknowledged the benefits of signing the Bretton Woods agreements but showed three serious defects from the view point of India, such as [i] the failure to include wartime balances within the scope of the fund,[ii] the small size of the quota allotted to India and [iii] the failure to receive a permanent seat on the Executive Board of the Fund. Moreover, on the question of sterling balance BalaSubrahmanian remarked that ultimately, India -UK bilateral agreement settled India's sterling balances where as the dis-satisfaction remains between India and Bretton Woods resolution.
Sato (2010) argued that during Bretton Woods period, India followed fixed exchange rate with US dollar facing huge balance of payments deficit acutely two times during 1952-57 and 1965-66 amounting to -3.0% of GDP and even India faced bulk of fiscal deficit for development finance in which India took external finance as aid, debt finance and equity for payments management in terms of external borrowing, NRI deposits and equity finance as foreign direct and portfolio investments. India's capital inflows reached at peak of 4.5% of GDP in 1965 where USA played the leading role.
The paper assumed: x 1 = US exports in billion US$, x 2 = India's exports in US billion $,m 1 =US imports in billion US$, m 2 =India's imports in billion US$, y= US grants, credits and other grants in India in billion US$ (Grants are transfers for which no payments are expected, credits are loan disbursements or transfers under other agreements and assistance represents the transfer of US farms products in exchange for foreign currencies), z=Gross National Income of USA in billion US$ in current prices.

The non-linear estimated trend line is depicted in Figure 1A below which is stable according to stability test of recursive residuals. Even in the Figure 2[c] the structural breaks are seen distinctly. In the long term trend one downward trend was observed during the complete upward trend from 1945 to1970 where three peaks and troughs were clearly visible in analysing the H.P.Filter model which is plotted in the Figure 3[c].

Indian exports showed two upward structural breaks in 1962 and 1968 respectively which are significant. All values have been given in Table-3. Moreover, in Figure 2[d], the structural breaks of Indian exports are visibly seen neatly. In H.P.Filter model, Indian imports have steady upward trend path but in the cycles there are six peaks and troughs in the long run which were significant. This is plotted in Figure 3[f].
Gross national income of USA (in million US$) during 1945-1970 had been rising at the rate of 5.99% per year significantly. Log(z)=12.2006+0.059987t+u i (712.72)* (54.11)* R 2 =0.99, F=2928.70*, DW=0.78, Z=Gross National Income of USA (in million US$), t =year,*=significant at 5% level, u i =random error. The trendline is shown by Figure 1[a].
Gross national income of USA had three upward structural breaks in 1951, 1959 and 1965 significantly as seen by Bai-Perron model. The values of breaks have been arranged in Table-6. Even, the structural breaks have been plotted in Figure 2[a]. The long run trend of the US National income from 1945 to 1970 is seen as steadily upward but the cyclical path constitutes seven peaks and troughs respectively which were observed by H.P.Filter model. The cycles and trend are clearly observed in Figure 3[a]. Johansen unrestricted rank test of the first difference series of US grants, credits and assistance to India (logy), US exports (logx 1 ) and imports (logm 1 ), Indian exports (logx 2 ) and imports (logm 2 ) and US gross national income (logz) (assuming linear deterministic trend) during 1945-1970 confirmed that Trace statistic and Max-Eigen statistic have three cointegrating equations each which are significant at 5% level. All the values have been arranged in the Table 7. By applying Wald test on the system equations of the VECM regression equations, it was observed some short run causalities in the following fashion: US grants, credits and assistance to India have short run causalities from India's imports and US gross national income whose Chi-square(1) value is rejected from H0=no causality. In the similar way, causality of US export from US import, causality from US grants, credits and assistance, US imports, Indian imports and US gross national income to Indian exports, causality from US gross national income to Indian imports and short run causality from US grants, credits and assistance to US gross national income were observed significantly. Taking into account of the system equations, the cointegrating equations turned into the following forms.
1[a] 1[b]Cointegrating equation1=Z 1t-1 = -0.9194logy t-1 -256.3150logm 1t-1 -85.465logm 2t-1 +353.394z t-1 -1519.56
In the first cointegrating equation, it was established that there were long run causalities to US credits, grants and assistance to India from both imports of India and USA and from gross national income of USA during the Bretton Woods era significantly and since all t values of coefficients were significant and coefficient of logy t-1 was negative and significant, it means that the cointegrating equation moves to the equilibrium or convergent. In the same token, US export had significantly long run causal relationships from US and Indian imports and US gross national income and this equation tended to equilibrium. Similarly, US export had long run causal relations with US and Indian imports and US gross national income and the cointegrating equation was convergent. The impulse response functions assumed Cholesky one standard deviation innovations which expressed that the responses of log(y) to log(m 2 ) and log(z), responses of log(x 1 ) to log(m 2 ) and log(z), responses of log(m 1 ) to log(x 2 ), response of log(m 1 ) to log(m 2 ), response of log(z) to log(y), response of log(m 1 ) to log(x 2 ) and response of log(m 1 ) to log(m 2 ) have been moving toward equilibrium which are observed in the Figure 7.
The paper concludes that US grants, credits and assistance to India during 1945-1970 had been growing at the rate of 39.61% per year significantly which had three upwards structural breaks with long run upward cyclical trend and seasonal variations. The upward structural breaks with upward cyclical filter along with high growth rates were also seen from exports and imports of USA and India and from National income of USA during 1945-1970.

The model described here suffers from some limitations too. If the variables like, balance of trade, inflation rate, exchange rate of Rupee could be taken into account, then the more viable results might be obtained. Thus, the paper assures enough scope for further research in the offing. assistance to India during 1945-1970 had three significant cointegrating equations with exports and imports of USA and India and national income of USA. The vector error correction model is unstable, nonstationary and non-normal having problem of autocorrelation. US grants, credits and assistance to India have short run causalities from India's imports and US gross national income. There were long run causalities to US credits, grants and assistance to India from both imports of India and USA and from gross national income of USA during the Bretton Woods era significantly.
