It surely is India's time now fair & square

Even while enforcing contracts in India takes an average 1,420 days and involves 56 different procedures. Importing goods takes 41 days and 15 documents. Starting a new business takes 35 days of slogging. Tax payments have to be made 59 times a year and the process takes 264 hours.

In the last three years, the ratio of exports of goods and services to GDP has shot up from 14.6% to 20.5%. India’s share in global merchandise exports has doubled from 0.5% in 1990-91 to 1%. Its share of global services exports too has doubled in just the last two years to 2.5%, and politicians in the US and Europe are petrified that India will grab millions of jobs from their countries.
