"Budget 2011 has been very lukewarm towards IT sector:Sunil Dutt

India Infoline News Service / 10:29 AM , Mar 01, 2011

 "Budget 2011 has been very lukewarm towards the IT sector with no major alterations directed towards it. While we welcome the initiatives towards increasing the penetration of rural broadband connectivity, its full benefits could have been reaped only if personal computing devices had been made affordable to the masses. No change in excise duty will help maintain prices, however, a reduction in excise duty, central sales tax and the abolition of Special Abolition duty would have helped achieve that end and guarantee inclusivity. Nonetheless, we welcome the steps that had been taken towards ensuring fiscal consolidation which will benefit the government as well as the corporate sector.“


Sunil Dutt - Vice President and General Manager, Personal Systems Group, Hewlett-Packard India.

Bad budget. Tax limit increased only to 2 Lacs. Also service tax up by 2 percent. All prices will go up.

It is easy to collect 100 rs from 100 person @ Rs. one each, instead of collecting Rs. 100 from one person @Rs. 100. The railway budget has increased the fare of AC and higer class where barely few people used to travel. per KM hike from 15 to 30 pc. rlw may get better revenue if general and sleeper clas also covered with hike only 5 pc per Km. sa the percentage of traveller is very high in economic class.

instead of charging excessive taxes on petrol, government should divert such taxes to those commodities which are generally used by upper middle class or upper class.
