According to Mr. Dinesh Gulati, Director, IndiaMART, “To achieve the Central Government’s ‘Make in India’ initiative, an aggressive SMB environment needs to be created. It requires simplification of policies, implementation of transparent and rational laws, new supportive infrastructure and technology built to aid business efficiency. While policies and reforms are being rolled out by the central government towards ease of doing business in India, a definite, time bound implementation roadmap will help businesses to grow & improve faster.
With the IndiaMART Emerging Business Forum being held in multiple cities we are creating a platform to bridge this gap. We wish to help businesses tackle the hurdles in the areas of financing, infrastructure, access to technology, marketing platforms, distribution networks and simplified taxation among others.”
