CII Unveils 250-Plus Reform Blueprint to Boost India’s Competitiveness

The industry body presents a consultation-led, live agenda to guide second-generation changes aligned with the Viksit Bharat vision.

Overview

  • Proposals include privatising non-strategic public sector enterprises and creating a sovereign wealth fund to strengthen public finances.
  • Simplification of GST and expansion to petroleum and real estate are urged alongside more predictable customs rules and rationalised tariffs.
  • The plan seeks easier business conditions through decriminalising minor violations, time-bound single-window approvals and second-generation IBC reforms.
  • Energy measures call for competitive power tariffs, removal of cross-subsidies, stronger transmission, private participation in nuclear power and a green hydrogen roadmap.
  • The blueprint also advocates faster dispute resolution, targeted MSME and mid-sized manufacturing support, national and gig-economy employment policies and stronger urban planning and municipal finance, with no formal government response yet.
