Nasscom Executive Council member Kunal Bahl has said that the various startup friendly initiatives announced by the government as part of Budget will help facilitate funding and lessen the regulatory and tax compliance burden on these fledgling enterprises. To spur startup growth in India, the government has proposed a slew of incentives, including a special arrangement for resolution of pending assessments of income tax cases.
Bahl has noted that doing away with the scrutiny of valuation of documentation on angel tax is an excellent step that will help facilitate funding. With this Budget, he believed that startups can expect lesser regulatory requirement, besides reducing their tax compliance burden. In addition, he said it will also encourage newer startups, especially from tier II and III areas, and in parallel infuse considerable foreign investments in India.
Nasscom Executive Council member has pointed out that the startup ecosystem in India has long been reeling from three challenges -- high credit cost, lack of adequate and timely funding. He said Nasscom has always been advocating the needs for startups and emerging entrepreneurs in the country and will continue our support to the government in fulfilling the collective dream of enabling India to become a more vibrant startup hub.
