Mysuru: The Institute of Company Secretaries of India (ICSI) applauds Central Budget-2024, that promises to balance the interest of women, youth, farmers and MSMEs, while strengthening the regulatory infrastructure, sustainability aspects, digital and data governance, and ease of doing business.
As rightly emphasised by the Prime Minister Narendra Modi, the budget is poised to drive India’s progress on all aspects. From growth platforms for MSMEs and start-ups to infrastructural advancement, the Budget proposes an inclusive development where environmental aspects such as nature farming, taxonomy for climate finance etc. is also taken care of.
There has been a focus on the manufacturing sector in the budget. Measures have been taken for simplifying the FDI/ODI rules and regulations, and the tax regimes. The enhanced Mudra loan limit and the abolition of angel tax are all set to incentivize the start-ups and MSMEs ecosystem of the country.
The judiciary process for corporate cases has also been reviewed by proposing to establish additional NCLTs, exclusive NCLTs under Companies Act 2013, and additional DRTs. An integrated platform for IBC eco-system and the extension of Centre for Processing Accelerated Corporate Exit (C-PACE) for voluntary closure of LLPs, proposed in the Budget, would further ease the adjudication process and make it effective and fast.
Acknowledging the budget, CS B Narasimhan, President the ICSI said “The nine priorities identified in this progressive and inclusive Budget 2024, are aimed at generating ample opportunities for all. Besides agricultural reforms, the budget focuses on skilling, educating and employing the youth, a priority that the ICSI has been concentrating on”.
