3.3. E- Biz Project

♤ E-Biz is one of the integrated services projects and a part of the 27 Mission Mode Projects (MMPs) under the National E-Governance Plan (NEGP) of the Government of India.

♤ The focus of E-Biz is to improve the business environment in the country by enabling fast and efficient access to Government-to-Business (G2B) services through an online portal. This will help in reducing unnecessary delays in various regulatory processes required to start and run businesses.

♤ This project aims at creating an investor-friendly business environment in India by making all regulatory information – starting from the establishment of a business, through its ongoing operations, and even its possible closure - easily available to the various stakeholders concerned. In effect, it aims to develop a transparent, efficient and convenient interface, through which the government and businesses can interact in a timely and cost effective manner, in the future.

♤ The eBiz portal was conceptualized with support from National Institute of Smart Governance (NISG) and developed by Infosys Technologies Limited (Infosys) in a Public Private Partnership (PPP) model for a period of 10 years.
