“It is heartening to see that the GST rollout date has been committed as Apr 2016. Now after an eternal wait, we can finally begin the countdown to a simpler indirect taxation regime. This will definitely give a massive fillip to the manufacturing and logistics industry as effective economies of scale can be achieved and processes can be simplified.
Focussed disinvestment in loss making PSUs coupled with a contemporary bankruptcy code will definitely aide in cleaning the mess and introducing overall efficiencies in the industry. This will have a long term impact of ensuring the “survival of the fittest” and breed excellence that is much required if India has to emerge as a preferred global manufacturing hot spot.
Announcement of 100,000 km of roads and 4 UMPPs is surely a move in the right direction and will help in giving a good boost especially to the capital goods companies.
Overall a good budget for the economy.”
