Manufacturers’ Association of Information Technology (MAIT) appreciates the concerted efforts of the Government to bring all stakeholders on board to finalize India’s new GST Law, which appears to be comprehensive in its approach. Stakeholders are optimistic that the GST tax structure being discussed will be in favor of the ICT industry. MAIT is recognized by both Govt. and Industry for its role in the growth and development of the IT Hardware industry in India and has emerged as a strong and effective mouthpiece of the industry in the government corridors.

Nitin Kunkolienker, Vice President, MAIT and Director-Corporate Affairs, Smartlink Network Systems is of the opinion that MAIT is very keen to see implementation of GST, which can potentially transform the Indian economy into a major global player.The spending on e-Governance would also fuel demand for IT products. After EVMs and UID, GST would be the third most important all time public digital transformation initiative for India.

Kunkolienker further added that The IT-Electronics industry at large welcomes the proposed move to the GST regime, which would pave the way for a simplified and homogenous tax structure for goods and services across India.
