Pre-Budget Expectation 2019 by Mr. Mahesh Makhija, Partner and Leader, Digital and Emerging Tech, EY

With the goal of making India a $5tn economy by 2024, the government is likely to introduce measures in the budget to encourage growth of start-ups, especially in new growth industries like AI and machine learning. We would expect the government to further expand on the measures announced in the interim budget and allocate additional funds  to support deep tech segments like AI, Robotics and Machine Learning.
