Expressing optimism over India’s ease of doing business ranking, Commerce and Industry Minister Suresh Prabhu indicated at improvement in the country’s ranking in the World Bank’s ease of doing business report. He added that the country has improved substantially. Besides, improvement is expected in parameters, including construction permit, starting a business, and trading across borders.
The World Bank’s last year’s 'ease of doing business' index had showed that India jumped 30 places to rank 100th among 190 nations. The World bank ranks countries based on 10 parameters, including starting a business, construction permits, getting electricity, getting credit, paying taxes, trade across borders, enforcing contracts, and resolving insolvency.
Talking about India-US trade relations, Prabhu said that New Delhi is actively engaged with Washington to resolve the issues. He said that India would like to work with the US on global challenges to multi-lateral trading system and matters related to existential issues of the World Trade Organisation (WTO). He added that India is a growing economy and it offers huge advantages for the US companies.
