"This clearly is a futuristic and technology driven budget presented by the honorable Finance Minister. Almost every key project announced by her talks about leveraging information technology to the fullest in bringing out the best outcome. Giving data centers infrastructure status is a welcome move. It will help in getting easy financing for the datacenter players and attract more investments. Other areas like 5G spectrum auction in 2022, PLI in 5G,optic fiber network in all villages by 2025, e-passports and emphasis on digital content development and delivery, and digitalization of education are some great moves announced in this budget. Bringing in Digital currency using Blockchain is another huge step," said Ashok Kumar, MD RAH Infotech.
