With the ease of doing business ranking of states and UTs for next year to be released by March 2021, the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) has started the exercise for the ranking of states and Union Territories in terms of ease of doing business.
DPIIT Secretary Guruprasad Mohapatra said that they have started the exercise already and they have communicated the Business Reform Action Plan (BRAP) for next year with the states/UTs, which they have to implement.
Last year, the department had identified 181 reform points and for 2021, it has shared 301 such points with the states and UTs. The ranking is based on the implementation of BRAP and feedback received. It started in 2015.
The action plan cover 12 business regulatory areas such as access to information, single window system, labour, and environment. So far, rankings have been released for 2015, 2016, 2017-18 and 2019. The exercise is aimed at promoting competition among states with a view to improving the business climate to attract domestic as well as foreign investments.
