Post-budget reaction quotes on various startups and companies-UrbanClap, Carzonrent , Myles,ApartmentADDA , ExportersIndia.com , SaleBhai.com, ECO Rent A Car, Onlymobiles.com, JobsForHer, Hunarr, IndiaMART, Timesaverz, Styletag

Mr. Abhiraj Bhal(Co-founder, UrbanClap)

"The new policy proposed in the budget, allowing startups a 3 year tax holiday in the first 7 years of their existence is a welcome change. However, this policy could have been more impactful had it included startups incorporated prior to 31 Mar'16, and extended the period when the tax holiday can be availed from 7 to 10 years. Equally importantly, while the present Ministry and Department are very committed to their work, to avoid future mis-use of this policy, clear guidelines and definition of a startup should be laid out, and any subjectivity in the granting of these tax holidays avoided."

Mr. Rajiv Vij(CEO & MD, Carzonrent.com)

"The Union Budget presented brings out the progressive outlook of the government for Businesses as well as individuals. The investments proposed in the area of skill developments are a welcome step. The investments in building National Highways is a welcome step for the car rental industry. The impact of the demonetization drive is visible with progressive steps taken for an inclusive and cashless economic future of India."

Ms. Sakshi Vij (Founder & CEO, Mylescars.com)

"The Union Budget presented is a welcome change. The governments focus on inclusion and encouragement of the MSME sector along with Startups is visible. The increase in the Profit linked deductions period to 3 out of 7 years is a welcome change for young startups like us. The exemptions proposed for the Indian entities with Foreign placed portfolio investments is also a step in the right direction."

Ms. Sangeeta Banerjee(Co-Founder & CEO – ApartmentADDA)

"When it comes to Real Estate / Housing, the Budget is solely oriented towards boosting Affordable Housing, as expected. Affordable housing defined as House Cost up to Rs.50Lakh or Carpet Area of 300 sqft in metros and 600 sqft in other cities.. This definition varies for different benefits in the budget.

For urban Apartment Communities or RWAs, a positive Budget announcement is for the Govt will Undertake important reforms by providing legal framework for dispute resolution and re-negotiations in PPP projects and public utility contracts.

Many Apartment Communities or RWAs wish to build or maintain public amenities in their neighbourhood in partnership with Govt. This could be Parks, Lakes, or even Last Mile Roads. A robust PPP framework as well as dispute resolution will make this a win-win for the Gov as well as forward-thinking neighborhoods."

Mr. Sunil Gupta , Founder & Director, ExportersIndia.com

"With “Transform, energise, and clean India, that is Tech India” this budget has upped allocation for rural, agriculture and allied sectors by 24% has opened scope for increasing investments and yielding multiple benefits. The rapid growth in manufacturing sector is a good sign for overall economy. The new FDI policy is a welcome move. MSMEs and start ups have all the reasons to cheer with a dip in income tax to 25% for companies with an annual turnover of Rs.50 crore. Their grin grows wider with the FM proposing dip in bank lending rates. Incentives such as cash backs, referral schemes on BHIM app is all set to push the use of digital transactions which is yet another reason for MSMEs to move to online business models. The lowering of Income tax would also increase the spending capacity which will benefit the SMEs."

Mr. Vishwavijay Singh ,Co-founder, SaleBhai.com

"The hero of the Union Budget 2017 is definitely the rural sector, with finance minister Arun Jaitley allocating Rs 1,87,223 crore for rural-agri development. He spoke of doubling farmer income in five years, keeping agriculture credit at Rs 10 lakh crore, and increasing cultivation area for kharif and rabi crops among a slew of forward-looking measures. Another important feature of the Budget is the Government's resolve to ramp up infrastructure, which should help in taking forward the government's Digital India campaign. As an e-commerce player, I see consumption in rural areas going up. With rural areas likely to witness greater digital penetration, the e-commerce sector is surely to benefit."

 Mr Aditya Loomba, Joint Managing Director, ECO Rent A Car 

The budget was ore or less as per my expectation, as it focused mainly on infrastructure growth like roads, sanitation, affordable housing etc

It also focuses on implementation of recent demonetization and digitalization policies.The HNIs will be taxed more and the tax burden on lower-mid income will be reduced.There was also some tax relief for small businesses which I feel is a good initiative.Personally, I wished there could have been more focus on our Tourism and Hospitality industry as it has a much greater potential for growth and needs suitable investments.We are a large country with an amazing potential for tourism. If the tourism grows, it has cascading benefits on Employment, GDP and general image building of our nation.

Mr Shrutam Desai, CO-Founder, Onlymobiles.com

However, there are no direct announcements made with respect to e-commerce sector, i will call it a muted budget but the expectations were also on lower side as we are expecting major reforms only during the GST announcements and subsequent rollout. there are two notable announcements made which will eventually help e-commerce companies (esp those who are in nascent stage) - 01) reduced income tax for people whose income is less than 5L - this will increase the net income of the salaried class and may help to increase the consumption. 02) reduced corporate tax from 30% to 25% - with annual turnover of less than 50 Crore

However, we should also note that ample focus have been placed on improving infrastructure - which eventually bring down the logistic expenses for the e-commerce companies. the result may not be visible in short period but it is govt’s message that they are prioritising the transportation sector.

Ms. Neha Bagaria,Co-Founder & CEO,JobsForHer (connecting portal that enables women on a professional break to restart their career)

"I’m happy to see the Government address the issue of training and skilling women with the introduction of Mahila Shakti Kendras aimed at empowering women. Encouraging more women to join the workforce is critical to India’s ability to benefit from the demographic dividend.

We will hopefully see an increase in female participation in the workforce, with the Government increasing allocation for women’s skill development to Rs 1.84 lakh cr for FY’18.

We are moving in the right direction with these Government led schemes aimed at increasing the Labour Force Participation Rate (LFPR) for women. This is vital to achieving high growth of employment and overall economic growth"

Mr. Dinesh Goel,Co-Founder & CEO,Hunarr.co,in (Online training aggregator connecting training seekers to training providers)

"Budget 2017 seems to be positive for skill development in the country. Setting up of 100 India-International skill centers for advanced training will certainly help more Indians compete in the international market. Programs like Swayam will make it easier to ensure quality education, from the best faculties in the country, reaches a wider audience. Allocation of Rs.1.84 lakh crore in women skill development is also an extremely welcome move. A central national testing agency to conduct all higher education exams will free up a lot of resources for boards like CBSE to put more focus on the curriculum and preparing students for college and ultimately their professional life"

Taking Ease of Doing Business from India to a Digitally Healthy Bharat - Dinesh Agarwal, Founder and CEO,IndiaMART.com

The budget 2017 has laid a foundation of an enterprise and business pro India. Important factors to boost GDP are thought of the Union Budget 2017. Most important elements such as young demographic dividend, skill development, women employability, digital education, transport have been well accounted for. Also, it is reflected that the burden of taxation is more evenly split with all demographies of the society.

It is a good year for SMEs, India’s backbone given the direct and indirect reforms announced for them. 5 special tourism zones will enhance MSME development and bolster schemes for employment in textile, transport, agriculture, leather and hospitality sector. The SMEs in pharmaceuticals and logistics are bound to experience accelerated growth as Healthcare hold high on Arun Jaitley's agenda in the Budget 2017. Ease of Doing Business for SMEs will thrive with push for infra in digital economy, Aadhaar-enabled payment systems, m-wallets and digital payments.

A lower borrowing cost and increased access to credit is on the anvil as a result of the government policy on currency and Banks being well nourished. With FIPB being abolished and maximum FDI coming from the automatic route it will aid diversified business. MSMEs with annual turnover upto Rs. 50 crore will have to pay only 25% tax. Tax exemptions will be a relief to our working class and promote digital economy and affordable housing.

To increase  digital payments acceptance cash purchase and payments for revenue and capital expenditure limited to Rs 10000 for businesses, is a very good move.
Even for individual or personal consumption a limit of Rs 3 lakh has been imposed on cash.  Both will help generate more transparency and thus  more revenue in times to come.  I would call this move to be even better than demonetization.

For many micro sized businesses the Presumptive tax rate has been reduced from 8% to 6% for non-cash receipts of upto Rs 2 Crore is also very good and would lead to less cash and transparency as well as help in broad basing the tax base. 25% higher budgetary allocation for spending on  infrastructure will also be a  big boon to job creation and economic revival.  The better infrastructure will help in doing business.

Ms. Debadutta Upadhyaya (Co-founder, Timesaverz.com)

A Budget less on Micro economics and more on Macro economics.
Reduction of Income tax rate from 10% to 5% for individuals in income bracket 2.5 lacs to 5 lacs is an incentive for honest tax paying individuals. Compensated with surcharge of 10% on Individuals for whose annual income is Rs.50 lacs to 1 crore - Super rich definition has been widened.
25% corporate tax rate for MSME's with 50 crore turnover, - Indian Companies to benefit. Not much for Big players.

Government to cut or eliminate excise duty on manufacturing of micro ATMs, finger print readers, biometric cards and PIN cards and further, import duty may also be reduced on components used in the manufacturing - Good move which would pave way for E commerce start ups to explore and expend less on these machines to go DIGITAL"

Mr. Sanjay Shroff, Managing Director & Founder, Styletag.com

"The budget has an eye on fiscal prudence . The boosts towards infra spends and railway safety will show results in times to come.  The focus on agricultural and rural development is welcome. Beginnings towards rationalization  of taxes both for corporate and  individual incomes is a step in the right direction. This will help both the common man  which falls under the middle income group and the smaller companies.The  move towards cleaning up political funding is very welcome. For us personally, from an e-commerce industry point of view, the demonetization and the thrust on digital economy is very promising. It will open up further opportunities and a wider market for us.The ceiling of 3 lakhs on cash transactions will also go a long way in ensuring better compliance and shift  towards the digital economy."

Pre-budget expectations quote from UrbanClap , Carzonrent, Timesaverz , Ecorentacar , SaleBhai , SHEROES , ExportersIndia.com, Onlymobliles.com,mjunction

Pre-Budget expectations quote on behalf of UrbanClap , Carzonrent, Timesaverz , Ecorentacar , SaleBhai , SHEROES.in , ExportersIndia.com, Onlymobiles.com :-

1. Quote on behalf of Mr. Abhiraj Bhal(Co-founder, UrbanClap) :-

"Keeping the startup industry in mind, the most important thing for a government to do, is to steer clear of setting too many policies and rules as well as making doing business very straightforward and easy. Minimum governance is actually very good."

2. Quote on behalf of Ms. Shylaja Shreedharan, Head of Finance of Timesaverz 

"Government is being sustained with high tax collection due to demonetization hence expect the budget to propose low personal & Corporate tax rates. Start-up India Campaign Initiatives which kick started in last year would yield and benefit, if more of Indirect and Direct tax incentives are announced by the government. "Digital India" a buzz word after demonetization drive - expect some tax exemption for digital transactions which will be a good incentive for E commerce startups"


3. Quote on behalf of  Ms. Sairee Chahal,Founder & CEO,SHEROES.in

“We look forward to more investment in healthcare and education sector. It would also be nice to see some work around lowering women tax and making the items affordable there by working on gender parity. And lastly, would be great to have support for the startup world.”

4. Quote on behalf of Mr. Rajiv Vij (MD & CEO, Carzonrent.com) 

"On various occasions the Government has spoken about its strong agenda around ‘Smart Cities’. It will be a welcome step on the Finance Minister’s part to spell out specific initiatives to be implemented during the course of the year along with related budgetary allocations and measures to address the crowded metro cities’ rampant urbanization in the past by bringing about planned development, which match global standards of modern cities in developed economies. This will go well for the estimated $150 billion foreign investment the sector needs.
The major concern in the development process is inadequate infrastructure, congested roads, parking problem and increasing  pollution levels ,where the solution lies in the introduction of shared economy in urban mobility complemented by technology to encourage change in car ownership pattern. This can remove 25 on road cars with one car – thus reducing traffic woes and easing pressure of creating parking infrastructure for exploding population of automobiles owing to improving economic profiles of households. Introduction and clarity of policy and regulatory framework in urban car rental services’ formats, like self-drive/ car sharing will help the cause and also encourage investments in the segment. Allowing private car owners to share their cars with others using car sharing platforms and removing inter-state entry tax on cars/taxis will be welcome steps”

5. Quote from Mr. Sunil Kumar Gupta, Founder & Director, ExportersIndia.com:

"With the demonetization drive and the digital push, it has dawned on the SMEs that shifting their business online is the need of the hour and they are looking ahead expectantly on the upcoming budget. The government’s intention of lowering Corporate Tax to 25% announced in FY 16 has raised hope for a further plunge this year anticipating a drop up to 18%, including all surcharges and cess with withdrawal of all tax incentives, concessions etc. This would not only boost the overall tax revenue, lead to job creation but also turn India into an attractive international investment destination. With cashless economy and the given trends of incentivising cashless transactions on focus, it seems that more such schemes encouraging digital payments in the FY 17 may be announced that are sure to set the cash registers ringing for online businesses. GST is one of the best things to happen to B2B E-commerce; its early implementation and addressing issues related to Tax Collection at Source, treatment of refunds and cancellations etc. should spur the growth of SMEs. Additional measures to strengthen the Government initiatives such as ‘Make in India’, ‘Start up India’ and ‘Skill India’ is sure to be in consideration and will boost the growth of entrepreneurial SMEs."

6. Quote on behalf of Mr Aditya Loomba, Joint Managing Director, ECO Rent A Car.

"I expect this year's budget to be a special one focusing on key growth agendas of our government. I hope that this years budget provides much needed stimulus to tourism, road infrastructure and the hospitality industry. The performance of the car rental industry in FY16 has been varied

It is crucial to bring more power in to related sectors like transportation, tourism, automotive, construction, etc. which will help to boost the GDP of the Country.

It is equally important to put a thrust on the improvement of  the road infrastructure  as this will  benefit  the mobility services providers, like us, as people will see improving road network enable them to plan their travel by road, reduce travel time, de-congest the existing roads as alternate routes will be developed.Also, this  will boost the car rental sector and encourage people to undertake more trips via using self-drives or other options of car-rental services."

7. Quote on behalf of Mr. Vishwavijay Singh, Co-founder, SaleBhai.com:

"We still have to see proper implementation of the slew of initiatives announced in the last Budget session. While a tax holiday of not less than five years would help startups, even the three-year relaxation for those set up between April 2016 and March 2019 is underutilised because of the tedious registration process.
I feel the government also needs to set aside indigenous funds to support the startup ecosystem in the country and decrease its current dependency on foreign funds.
Another much-needed change is required in the banking sector. Both private and government banks need to have a policy in place for startups. Apart from help in opening accounts, there isn't anything on offer. We hope to see some dramatic changes and concrete steps being taken to help startups, especially e-commerce, from the upcoming Budget."

8. Quote on behalf of Mr Shrutam Desai, Co Founder, Onlymobiles.com 


"This budget is very important as we are expecting it to be the foundation stone for GST rollout. Govt should step forward and provide more clarity over dual layer GST structure - state GST & centre GST. We expect government to make TDS claims process easier. Service tax eats big chunk of the profitability right now. and there are instances where we are seeing dual taxation on the same service. Govt should act upon the same. Though govt cannot force state governments at this juncture but central govt must push state govt to abolish entry taxes which are being levied by different states.'

9. Quote on budget expectations from Mr. Vinaya Varma, CEO of mjunction

Expectations from Annual Budget 

"I look forward to a budget which carries forward the Prime Minister's vision of a Digital India in the truest sense of the term. Let e-governance be the order of the day, and let e-payments and digital wallets be more incentivised in order to eradicate corruption from its very roots. I am also looking forward to implementation in letter and spirit of the Prime Minister's Startup India programme.  This will boost innovative thinking and fresh ideas so crucial for India's economy now."

Apart from this kindly let us know if you are interested for a telephonic interaction with Mr.Varma to discuss on the following talk points:

•             e-commerce in coal, steel and tea sector

•             Future and growth plans on mjunction

•             Demonitisation and the impact on our economy

Echoing the sentiment of the primary TG i.e. the working men and women; who get bogged down with the various home chore requirements that are always on their mind while discharging their daily routine tasks, the campaign brings out the benefit that Timesaverz offers across its range of services across the web and app platform. The recent upgrade of the app has seen more than 80% in terms of adoption and has made that a primary medium of booking a service – new as well as repeats.
The campaign started with a teaser message of “Too Little Time” which aimed to create curiosity and focuses on different home related issues on people’s mind.

The launch campaign revealed the brand message with high impact visuals across all platforms.  This includes a series of print ads across leading publications.

Speaking on the new integrated campaign Marketing manager, Shayesta Shahzabeen says,
As the leader in the home service category, Timesaverz always created a strong brand identity with its creative. With the new campaign, our endeavor would be to create a successful brand recall with a slice of freshness & humor. The series of creatives seamlessly connect the TG with their everyday issues and bringing in a recall that Timesaverz is there to solve their home chores needs.

Conceptualized by Digital Driftwood, the agency behind the development of the brand persona of TIMESAVERZ, whether it is through the peg doll creatives or the sleek logos, this is what Anita Verma, CEO Digital Driftwood, had to say about the recent campaign

When Timesaverz was first launched, the communication aimed to assure our audience that-help is at hand-for all those niggling issues that crop up at home. Whether it’s a leaky tap or the Ac that stopped working. #savetheday along with peg dolls helped us to tell the Timesaverz story that resonated very well with our audiences.
For this campaign, we decided to take the brand narrative forward with emphasis on the sheer expertise Timesaverz has gathered over years. Based on the insight that sometimes these so-called little chores really end up taking over our minds, the campaign is simple, strong and visually impactful. It’s a reminder to let the Home Service Specialists come in and do their job that you never have to lose your head.

The logo has evolved as well with a string typeface & a symbol which captures succinctly what the brand promises-unlock more time for yourself.

Timesaverz - Festive preparations made easy

India’s first on-demand home services company, Timesaverz, has unleashed a slew of new offerings on the eve of the festive season - a new loyalty program, gifts cards and new services.

New Delhi , 7th October 2016 - A brand new loyalty program

One of a kind loyalty program called Earn Minutes, it is an extensive rewards program using gamification techniques which will enable users to earn points or “minutes” at each step of interaction, and not just restricted to booking a service. The number of minutes awarded would vary depending upon each of the 14 parameters. These include things like first purchase, providing feedback, rating the app, birthdays and anniversaries sharing, service completion, referrals among others. The loyalty program is different from the ones offered by the competitors as earning minutes is not purely dependent upon service completion. Further, each minute amounts to an Indian Rupee and the entire amount can be redeemed by the customer for booking a service on the Timesaverz platform.  The announcement comes at a time wherein people are making more and more purchases during the festive season, and can now get rewarded with points they can use for subsequent purchases.

Gift cards

The company had launched the first of its kind gift cards for services earlier this year. These are available in attractive templates with customisable messages, and can be purchased in any denomination.  Again, a first in this sector, these are turning out to be a huge hit during the festive season, according to Debadutta Upadhyaya, Co-Founder and CEO, and are being used for personal and corporate gifting, especially as people are looking for novel gifting ideas this festive season and are gifting home cleaning and at-home beauty services to their loved ones.

New services

The development comes just on the steps of Timesaverz announcing the launch of new service categories namely festive painting, mobile repairs  and home interior services. The company aims to be the one stop solution when it comes to at-home services for metro dwellers. Keeping in mind the season’s requirements around deep home cleaning services, festive lighting services, painting, renovation, and beauty services, Timesaverz has some attractive combo packages that can cater to all such service requests.

Commenting on the development, Ms. Debadutta Upadhyaya, CEO of Timesaverz said “ We were the pioneers in aggregating the professional home cleaning business and creating an awareness around the merits of such a service. Our constant efforts in building more depth into the category has not only helped Timesaverz attain break even in this category across all operating cities but also contributed to a change in the consumer behavior in terms of adoption of a new service category, which, till about 3 years back, was restricted to a top-up Diwali cleaning of homes by regular maids.”
