If we look on IT Sector, budget is completely failed to bring anything new as whole. No cheering for Dada for IT sector, since no major announcements has been made to boost the economy & country’s IT growth engine. IT Industry, the most suffered segment of the latest 2000 recession, even its struggling. In countries, like US & UK many companies are still under the bailout package issued by their respective country. In India, they’re battling hard against taxes & continuous STPI soaping. STPI, which is already under the recovery state after almost two years of rigorous meltdown. Though, FM didn’t extend any more extension on these latest services. STPI Stands for Software Technology Parks of India. STPI, which offers tax immunity to export oriented units on profits under Section 10A and Section 10B of the Income Tax Act, was extended by one year till March 2011 in the Budget last year.
According to Industry sources, Overall budget is Okay, but he could something more for IT sector. Since budget is literally more focused on Food Inflation & Industrial growth rate, therefore IT Sector proposal lagged out. Okay is just for reason that he allowed relaxation in the taxes for Indian firms working outside. On the other hand, he added the proposals are “an excellent move” as they would boost the margins of large IT companies. Poor recovery in American & European markets are still more complicated issues of IT Sector, it really creates too much pricing pressure in the domestic markets. It was expected that IT sector would largely be neutral to the budget provisions. But in his budget speech, Finance Minister has sprung an unwelcome, when imposed MAT. Analysts say, this will be going to affect a lot to the entire sector in the future.
