The business environment in India is steadily improving year on year. The government has liberalized FDI norms and implemented a number of measures to improve the ease of doing business; simplifying and digitizing the existing legal regimes. As a result of these initiatives, India now ranks 77th in the world for ease of doing business (World Bank).
