PM Modi Presents At the Make In India:
Promising stable and predictable tax regime, Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Saturday said this was the best time to invest in India as the government carries reforms, including setting up a company law tribunal and effective intellectual property rights (IPR) regime.
"We have carried out a number of corrections on the taxation front. We have said that we will not resort to retrospective taxation. And I repeat this commitment once again. We are also swiftly working towards making our tax regime transparent, stable and predictable," he said at the Make in India week in Mumbai.
Earlier in the day, Modi launched the largest-ever manufacturing summit MII Week here in the presence of heads of state, a battery of business leaders and foreign delegates.
Over 2,500 international and 8,000 domestic companies are participating in the week-long multi-sectoral industrial event, which is also being attended by foreign government delegations from 68 countries and business teams from 72 nations.
"We have the technology to allow India to leapfrog ahead to go where others have not been yet," Mr Catz said.
Here are his top ten quotes:
- India contributed 12.5% to global growth. Its contribution is 68% higher than its share in global economy.
- We have enacted law to fast-track arbitration proceedings. Soon we will have transparent IP and patent regime.
- Today India is perhaps the most open country for FDI. There is an all-round emphasis on 'Ease of doing business'
- FDI inflow has been up 48 per cent since my government came into office. FDI inflow in December 2015 was highest-ever in the country.
- There is no time for incremental changes, we want a quantum jump.
- Make In India is a drive to fulfill the un-met demands of the common man.
- We want our youth to become job creators rather than job seekers. That is why we have launched the Startup India campaign.
- India blessed with three Ds: Democracy+Demography+Demand. The 4th D is Deregulation.
- I would like to give industry some friendly advice. Do not wait. If you take one step, we will walk 2 steps for you.
- This is the best time to be in India, it is even better to Make in India
