New Delhi, July 17, 2014 – As a part of Government’s initiative to improve the business environment and the ease of doing business in the country, the Department of Industrial Policy & Promotion, Ministry of Commerce & Industry had launched the eBiz mission mode project under the National e-Governance Plan of the Government of India. eBiz will serve as an 24X7 online single-window system for providing efficient, convenient, transparent and integrated Government-to-Business (G2B) services to investors, industries and businesses throughout the life-cycle of business operations.

The project has been undertaken for a period of 10 years with the first three years constituting the Pilot Phase and the next seven years constituting the Expansion Phase. M/S Infosys Limited has been identified as the concessionaire for the project and has been entrusted with the responsibility of delivering the eBiz project under a PPP model.

The response from the business community has been good so far. After the launch of License & Permit Wizard in Jan 2013, over 1100 users have registered on the eBiz portal.

The information was given by the Minister of State (Independent Charge) of the Ministry of Commerce & Industry Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman in a written reply in Rajya Sabha today. CCI Newswire
