Govt makes 20 pc procurement from MSEs mandatory
kaushikk | Wed Dec 10 04:02:22 2014
Sir,
On the day you made this announcement during your lecture at VCCI seminar in Vadodara,I came there to give my views to your good self, but the organisers did not allow.However,there is always an old provisions and as a constitutional directive all PUBLIC SECTOR COMPANIES HAVE TO PROMOTE ANCILLARIES AND ALSO PROMOTE IMPORT SUBSTITUTES.AS A PART OF VENDOR DEVELOPMENT AND ALSO TO PROMOTE THE "MAKE IN INDIA" CHALLENGE ANNOUNCED BY OUR HON. PRIME MINISTER.
THE WHOE CONCEPT OF THIS WAS TOTALLY DERAILED DURING THE VCCI EXHIBITION AND SEMINARS.
KEY AREAS NEED TO BE FOCUSED ARE-1. TO MAKE VITAL COMPRESSORS LIKE ETHYLENE, PROPYLENE COMPRESSORS
2. THE VITAL CATALYSTS USED IN OIL REFINERIES AND PETROCHEMICAL PLANTS
3.VITAL COMPONENTS FOR GAS TURBINES AND POWER PLANTS, OIL/GAS DRILLING RIGS, DRILLING CHEMICALS
AND MANY MORE,THE DISCUSSION AND THE ENTIRE THEME OF MAKE IN INDIA was misquoted and misrepresented.
Hon. PM wanted to convey this in spirit of it was make those products that we are importing not what you already made in INDIA.
I HAVE BEEN WRITING TO VARIOUS MINISTRIES AND INCLUDING PMO but absolutely no rely,except once by the COMMERCE MINISTRY AND THAT TOO ALSO JUST HALF HEARTEDLY.
IF THIS IS THE CASE SUCH Dramas of HOLDING EXPENSIVE EXHIBITIONS AND SEMINARS DOESN'T SERVE ANY PURPOSE.
JAI HIND.

Relax norms for Start ups
Raoof Ahmed Khan | Tue Dec 9 16:55:42 2014
I welcome the very long pending demand from MSME; now we can find ourselves in a better situation. But still the other conditions should also be relaxed a bit.
In case of Start ups they should be allowed to participate otherwise it would be difficult for new Startups to get into the PSU for at least 3 years in most of the cases.
