‘Salt Commissioner’s office can send you a notice…’: Rant on red tape overdrive explains why India is losing to China, Vietnam

Although “Make in India” pushed and promised to the global transformation of manufacturing away from China, many Indian entrepreneurs find that the greatest challenge is not a foreign competition – that it moves in the bureaucratic maze in India.

On Sunday, on Sunday, a tendon has operated a tendon through the start of the start in India and the MSME ecological system, as it presented a list of a mockery of 25 reasons for the difficulty of managing a factory in India. From the requirements of ridiculous paper business to arbitrary government interventions, the topic has re -discussed the ease of doing business – especially compared to Asian manufacturing giants such as China and Vietnam.

“If you are a brave Indian decides to start MSME, a manufacturer or factory,” the post begins, “The writer / municipal officer can reject your land registration file because of a missing inclusion on the sixteenth page of the seventeenth model.”

It gets angry from there. “The application of your commodity tax and services can be distinguished for physical verification despite the Aadhaar digital verification, because the Insta and Aadhaar image card does not match.” In another case, “the office of the Commissioner of Salt can send you a notice of the abuse of salt land, although your land is 600 km of the nearest sea.”

This post is not just screaming – it is a reflection of the reason for the struggle of many Indian manufacturers to survive. Entrepreneurs spend more time fighting the red tape more than competing for the product, cost or quality. “For this reason, most ambitious entrepreneurs resigned, go home and wonder whether they should have simply held a regular Berry function.”

On the other hand, China and Vietnam built strong environmental systems for manufacturers, simplifying permissions, providing incentives, and enabling the rapid range. In contrast, Indian entrepreneurs face the delay of energy delivery, environmental notifications of the non -existing trees, and the threats of the penalty of separation in its place.

Even the most designed struggle for continuing: “a few great souls who persevere, spend most of their time and energy to fight the Indian government’s mechanism to comply. Not China / Vietnam at cost and quality.”

Until India addresses these systematic issues on the ground – and not only on paper – it risks the loss of global industrial axis that could have been the specific economic opportunities.
