Is India’s 7.5% growth rate a sham? Many business people think it is, according to a recent article in The Economist.

Encouraged by talk of structural reforms from the prime minister, Narendra Modi, investors are flocking to the country in the hope of big profits.

Yet the slow pace of regulatory change—most notably the long-delayed introduction of a general sales tax—makes doing business far harder than it needs to be. India’s booming start up sector attracted more than $9 billion in funding in 2015. But is this enough to fuel India’s sizeable ambition?

Hear key members of Mr Modi’s cabinet such as finance minister Arun Jaitley, commerce minister Nirmala Sitharaman and communications and information technology minister, Ravi Shankar Prasad to ​discuss the goverment’s policy priorities to help foster innovation and boost India’s growth prospects at India Summit 2016.

KEY TOPICS:

• India’s innovation ecosystem
• The Modi’s administrative policy agenda
• How are traditional companies innovating?
• Creating employment for India’s future workforce
