    Hello Vipul Phadatare-Deshmukh,
    Economics is a really good subject as it provides too many career options.
    Some of them are Statistician, data analyst, actuarial analyst, chartered accountant, stockbroker, lecturer and research analyst.
    To work as a lecturer or become a research fellow, you have to pursue Master's degree first then you can apply for UGC NET Exam https://www.eduncle.com/cbse-ugc-net-exam which is a national level exam conducted for the candidates who are willing to pursue their career further as an assistant lecturer or junior research fellow. With JRF, you can also pursue Ph.D.
    I hope it will help you.
    Best of Luck :)
