Confederation of Indian Industry
CHANDIGARH ANNUAL REPORT 2013-14
World class Amenities & Habitat !n Chandigarh
-
For financial year 2014-15 the government's projection for growth
is 5.8% per cent. Foreign Exchange Reserves in India increased to
16659.90 INR Billion in January of 2014 from 16573.40 INR Billion
in December of 2013.Foreign institutional investors (FII) inflows
were at Rs 15,000 Cr, the second highest figure in the past 10
years. The agriculture sector grew by 4.8 per cent in the current
fiscal up from 1.9 per cent while the industrial growth pegged at
2.7 per cent as against 2.1 per cent in 2012-13.India's real
economy is relatively insulated from global developments due to its
domestic demand and low exports/GDP. The government has
pegged the country's fiscal deficit at 4.8 per cent of GDP in FY14
and expects it to be achieved through higher mobilisation of
disinvestment proceeds, tax revenues, telecom receipts and
reduction in expenditure on subsidies.
Given this background, CII Chandigarh focused on strengthening
b r i d g e s t o t a k e u p p o l i c y
matters as well as providing opportunities for business
development for the members.
Regular interface with H.E. Sh Shivraj V Patil, Governor, Punjab &
Administrator U.T. Chandigarh; Mr K K Sharma, Adviser to
Administrator; Home Secretary; Finance Secretary; Secretary
Tourism; Secretary IT; Special Secretary Finance; Commissioner,
Chandigarh Municipal Corporation, Deputy Commissioner and
various other departments of Administration facilitated putting
forth of obstacles, needs & recommendations of the industry.
We continued to advocate for implementation of MSMED Act in
totality, skill development, growth of IT / ITES sector, infrastructure
development in Chandigarh, extending Watch hours at
Chandigarh Airport, Industrial Policy for Chandigarh. We also gave
various suggestions & observations on Draft Master Plan for
Chandigarh 2031 besides giving suggestions on Foreign Trade
Policy 2014 15 to Chandigarh Administration. Objections &
suggestions on the Aggregate Revenue Requirement (ARR) and
tariff proposal for distribution of electricity for FY 2013-14, APR for
FY 2012-13 and provisional true up for FY 2011-12, filed by
Electricity Department, U.T. Chandigarh (Petition No. 100/2013)
were also taken up by CII.
We organised Destination IT@ North jointly with Chandigarh
Administration, Government of Punjab and Software Technology
Parks of India (STPI) with an aim to promote the region as an ICT

Systems was jointly organised by CII, CREST, MNRE & TERI to

the CII family, highest in the recent years and organised three
members' meets during the year along with other activities.
Skill development, education (primary, technical & higher) and
university - industry partnership assumed greater importance. Soft
skills projects were undertaken in Government Polytechnic for
Women. 20 students were shortlisted in the placement drive
organized for the students of the college. I would like to thank
Taaleem India for supporting these initiatives & urge more
members to come forward. Regional Workshop on AICTE - CII
Survey of Industry-Linked Technical Institutes was also organized
for better industry academia partnership.
Building on the Leadership Series, Mr Subroto Bagchi, Founder

Chandigarh Tricity Chapter led by Mr Robin Aggarwal continued
to strengthen the activities of Yi through their initiatives in
education, healthcare and youth engagement.

members to expand & grow. My heartfelt gratitude to Northern
