Misra Ji Manufacturing is only one area for generating employment ,but other areas like even shops generate employment, you will get the ideas after visiting Delhi and Mumbai that both cities create more jobs than manufacturing HUB I think the situation is now in India better then even few other Developed Countries. Wait and think positive. more

Some people have an extremely negative mind set. Does the report say that there is inconsistncy in the data pertaining to India? Let us have slightly more faith in our Government than relying on outsiders to denigrate India. more

The insolvency and bankruptcy code creates a separate class of professionals from among the accounting professions exclusively for the purpose of insolvency. Where in the world this is the case?

In all economically attractive nations bankruptcy is handled at the level of the district courts or maximum the high courts with special judges or benches created within these courts for such matters. All this saves cost and time of the parties. So how does the insolvency law improve the ease of doing business in India? Beats me. more

Even in the UK any lawyer or board member having requisite qualification can serve as secretary to the company board. Therefore how does this positively affect the ease of doing business in India? more

Also, claiming that changes in Indian company laws and insolvency laws will overnight improve ease of doing business was too much of a stretch especially when these changes have increased compliance costs of companies. more
