The topics covered in the program included the Journey from USD 1 Million to USD 100 Million Mark, Make in India and the Competitiveness of SMEs in a Globalized Economy; driving growth through innovation and new technologies; deciphering the nuances and impact of GST implementation on SMEs in the coming future. The event was a grand success, helping the SME community in decoding GST and reaping the benefits of technology for transition and implementation.
Speaking about the meet held in Gurgaon, Bharat Goenka, MD-Tally Solutions said
It is evident from the overwhelming response to our GST program held in Gurgaon, that every businessman is anxious to understand and get ready for this massive change. Our partnership with CNBC Awaaz-The Guild was motivated by this need to maximize reach to the business community, who are likely to be the most dramatically effected section. We are not just preparing the right products and technologies for them, but also wanting to ensure they are equipped with the right understanding of GST, such that they can transition effectively and take advantage of this revolutionary tax regime.
We have already conducted hundreds of such events, and are executing several thousand more to get as many businesses of India ready as possible.
Speaking at the event, Sathya Prasad, CFO-Tally Solutions said
We are glad to see such an overwhelming response to our event. Gurgaon has evolved as an Industrial and manufacturing hub, as the symbol of rising new India. The entire region will stand to benefit a lot from GST compliance and for that to happen it is very important for them to become aware about the new tax structure. This is one of the reasons for us having chosen Gurgaon as a hub for the series.
Tally partnering with The Guild & CNBC Awaaz, plans to drive the SME Futures program for the SME community in 12 key cities during the course of the next 3 months.
