As the debate rages over who's to blame for a slowing economy, a panel of eminent experts including Rahul Bajaj, Adi Godrej, Ajay Shah, Arvind Virmani and Ajit Ranade explain what can be done to revive it.
The industry forecasts exports are set to grow 16% in 2025-26, boosted by surplus domestic production and a drive to push into 26 underserved global markets with strong potential.
Indigenisation level will progressively increase up to 60 percent with key sub-assemblies, electronics and mechanical parts being manufactured locally.
It is a brilliant, reasonably priced, and mostly homemade aircraft with a stellar safety record; only two crashes in 24 years since its first flight. But its crash is a moment of introspection.
The best and practical way to increase growth is to allow corruption first, then chase up the corrupt people, like hunting with the hounds and running with the mare. This will cause the corrupt people to spend the money in a frivolous way on a buying spree and thus it will cause goods and services to move. What I meant is , as corruption goes down people choose to spend less on frivolous and unnecessary items. For example, one may chose to use a Rs 10000/- mobile instead of a 40,000/- one, and this occurs in chain reaction across all section of society, because in our society , corruption is at micro level. Thus the items which are high priced and luxury gets the hardest hit and the shock goes down the entire economic chain.
So we will have to bear with this loss of growth is we want to weed out corruption, and the only way out is to increase Govt spending.
I read Mr Rahul Bajaj most keenly and he is the only one I wish to engage … Nothing works well like a Danda and it was is time the SMEs got tax and system compliant .. For far too long they have been fudging their books and I dare say Big Business benefitted Indirectly!!! … As for incentivising digital payments . Well simply say no to bank drafts .. Just say Yes to NEFT detialed bank slips or Receipts and that’s half the battle … Reducing cash withdrawals to about Rs 25,000/- per Aadhaar account was a very good idea and must be now enforced as a rule with no let up!!!! Pay by cheque NEFT or Card but no cash beyond the Reasonable Rs 25000/- pm. Even casual labourer must be/ needs to be paid by Cheque or NEFT … That would lead to compliance with minimum wages also!!!

as Rahul Bajaj said Govt should give 1% or 0.5% incentive/discount for digital transactions, then every one will com forward for contributions
