January 18, 2017 Shri Arun Jaitley Union Finance Minister 134, North
January 18, 2017 Shri Arun Jaitley Union Finance Minister 134, North Block, Ministry of Finance New Delhi – 110001 Subject: Consideration of ICT Duties in Budget Season Dear Honorable Minister: As the 2017 budget season approaches, India’s political leadership will make decisions on import duties that have an important impact on the nation’s business climate. Against this backdrop, our members, representing the most innovative information and communications technology (ICT) companies in the world, would like to highlight the value of a stable and predictable tariff regime. While many countries around the world continue to lower import duties on ICT products, India has in recent years raised duties multiple times on a wide array of ICT items. These actions undermine business confidence on two counts. Not only do higher duties make it more expensive to manufacture and sell products, but the unexpected imposition of new fees creates a destabilizing sense of uncertainty. Companies find it harder to plan for the future when faced with the prospect that operating costs could rise unexpectedly. This makes it difficult to justify expanded investments in facilities and staff. For example, last year’s unexpected increase in ICT customs duties raised input costs by up to 10 percent for many technology suppliers. The fee increase followed an earlier unexpected round of duty hikes on ICT products in 2014, including on Information Technology Agreement products. While we applaud the government’s decision to repeal some of the 2016 levies, many ICT duties remain in effect. In short, our members have major concerns over the future direction of tariffs, when they will change, and how those changes will impact their ability to invest in India.

India's 2019 National Election and Implications for U.S. Interests
India’s 2019 National Election and Implications for U.S. Interests June 28, 2019 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov R45807 SUMMARY R45807 India’s 2019 National Election and Implications June 28, 2019 for U.S. Interests K. Alan Kronstadt India, a federal republic and the world’s most populous democracy, held elections to seat a new Specialist in South Asian lower house of parliament in April and May of 2019. Estimates suggest that more than two-thirds Affairs of the country’s nearly 900 million eligible voters participated. The 545-seat Lok Sabha (People’s House) is seated every five years, and the results saw a return to power of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who was chief minister of the west Indian state of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014. Modi’s party won decisively—it now holds 56% of Lok Sabha seats and Modi became the first Indian leader to win consecutive majorities since Indira Gandhi in 1971. The United States and India have been pursuing an expansive strategic partnership since 2005. The Trump Administration and many in the U.S. Congress welcomed Modi’s return to power for another five-year term. Successive U.S. Presidents have deemed India’s growing power and influence a boon to U.S. interests in Asia and globally, not least in the context of balancing against China’s increasing assertiveness. India is often called a preeminent actor in the Trump Administration’s strategy for a “free and open Indo-Pacific.” Yet there are potential stumbling blocks to continued development of the partnership.

Unclassified Embassy of India Jakarta
Unclassified Embassy of India Jakarta INDIA-INDONESIA BILATERAL RELATIONS India and Indonesia have shared two millennia of close cultural and commercial contacts. The Hindu, Buddhist and later Muslim faith travelled to Indonesia from the shores of India. The stories from great epics of Ramayana and Mahabharata form source of Indonesian folk art and dramas. The shared culture, colonial history and post-independence goals of political sovereignty, economic self-sufficiency and independent foreign policy have unifying effect on the bilateral relations. POLITICAL RELATIONS Owing to struggle against colonial powers, democratic traditions, pluralist culture, and progressive leadership which both countries shared, India and Indonesia developed friendly relations. President Sukarno of Indonesia was the Guest of Honour during the first Republic Day of India in 1950. Independent India and Indonesia became chief votaries of independence of Asian and African countries, the spirit which led to historic Bandung Conference of 1955 and later formation of Non-Aligned Movement in 1961. Since the adoption of India’s ‘Look East Policy’ in 1991, there has been a rapid development of bilateral relations in political, security, defence, commercial and cultural fields. The current Government expressed its intent to further deepen the engagement with East Asia and by renaming the policy as “Act East”. IMPORTANT VISITS AND OTHER ENGAGEMENTS Visit of Prime Minister Narendra Modi in May 2018: Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi visited Jakarta on 29-30 May 2018 at the invitation of the President of Indonesia Mr. Joko Widodo. During this visit, both Leaders agreed to strengthen cooperation in all areas by establishing a New Comprehensive Strategic Partnership to take Indonesia and India’s bilateral relationship into a new era.
