The minister added that the move is part of the government's ongoing efforts to boost investment and economic growth.

## Indian Opinion Analysis

The ease of doing business ranking has been a key metric for the government since 2014, with India climbing from 142nd to 63rd in the World Bank index by 2019, though the bank suspended the ranking in 2021. The proposed rules follow multiple states passing their own business reforms under the Business Reform Action Plan. The actual impact will depend on how much of the simplification reaches small and medium enterprises, which account for 30 percent of India's GDP. The government is expected to release the detailed notification within the next quarter. Note:
