INDIA'S JUMP ON WORLD BANK'S
INDEX ON DOING BUSINESS IN 2018
In Green Homes
For all the correct reasons, the World Bank doing
Business 2018 report was the toast of India and
markets reacted with the positivity. As India, we
should certainly analyze the report by the World
Bank, not only from the perspective of ranking
but also distance from frontier scoring the point
of view with the scores ranging from 0-100. Also,
to measure the performance of the ruling
government since the election is actually
appropriate to compare the ranking of 2014 and
2018. These three indicators certainly reveal lot
more than what has actually been discussed. The
goal of the government is to attain ranking under
50 for the ease of doing business. From point of
view of serious analysts and investors, however,
it is significant to try and figure out how early
India will reach the top 50 and how various other
countries are faring. It is significant that
India has made good progress but still there are
various areas that need improvements on the
journey from 100th to 50th nation ranking. From
the perspective of real estate, there are
indicators that have a high impact on the real
estate sectordealing with the construction
permits, registering a property, resolving
insolvency and enforcing contracts. How Word Bank
measures high-impact reaLty indicators DeaLing
with the construction permits This basically
includes all the procedures that are required,
for the business in the construction industry,
factoring in time and cost, to construct the
building to complete each procedure and the
quality of building regulations, safety mechanism
and quality control, insurance and liability
regimes and professional certification
needs. While maturing the real estate sector,
like office, residential and retail, have
actually been doing well, it is the time to look
at the sunrise opportunities in the sector like
warehousing. With the Goods and Service Tax
paving its way for the cross-border movement for
all the goods across India, the data by World
Bank on cost and time involved the constructing
warehouse is not sufficient enough. The
e-commerce sector is rapidly growing in India and
soon, there will be chances for constructing huge
urban warehouses, equipped with world-class
automation. Registering the property It includes
all procedures that are important for the
business or the buyer, to buy property from other
business or the seller and transfer title of
property to the name of the buyer so that the
owner can make use of the property for expanding
the business or as the collateral for taking the
loan or sell property to another business. Before
the Real Estate Regulation and Development Act
became a reality in 2017, the information of the
projects, land titles clearances deeds and the
developer liability, existed somewhere on the
papers and the buyers ha o access to it.
Nonetheless, verifying the land title clearances
as well as other aspects of the due diligence was
the responsibility of the buyer who would
actually have needed to engage with the
consultant for verification.
The complete impact of Real Estate Regulation Act
is not visible in ranking for the property
registrations. This will only happen when all the
states have adopted the Act without tampering
with central guidelines by next year. Also, the
initiatives like online registration facilities
and single-window clearances should be
strengthened in order to make the procedures less
cost-intensive and time-consuming.

Title insurance, online records of titles and
title search and certification will actually be
real game-changers which would take India into
World Bank's top 50 immediately almost. The work
has commenced on digital records, digital
registration, online search, and certification
but suitable controls need to be added at each
stage. Enforcing contracts It includes the cost
and time involved in deciding the commercial
quarrel through the local prime-instance court,
evaluating the economy and the quality of
judicial processes index how well it has adopted
practices that promote quality as well as
efficiency in the judicial system. World Bank's
Doing Business report says that the after
establishing recovery of the debt tribunals in
India, non-performing loans have actually reduced
by 28, thereby, resulting in the decrease in
complete interest rates. Real Estate Regulations
Act, as a body that resolves disputes between the
buyers and developers, is progressive initiative,
which must, however, be implemented in all the
markets without dilution. Progress on this will
definitely be captured in the report next year
and reflect on the ranking in India's on the
parameter. The processes involved in resolving
disputes between landowners, businesses, the
government and developers need to be speeded
up. Resolving insolvency This includes the cost,
reorganization proceedings, time, outcome of
insolvency proceedings involving domestic
entities and efficiency of the legal framework
for judicial liquidation. Track record of India,
vis-a-vis insolvency has actually been poor,
resulting in the investors' reluctance to involve
themselves financially. There is a huge
concentration of stress in land-rich metal and
textiles manufacturing industries and it remains
to be seen whether bankruptcy code and new
insolvency will actually help to unlock the land
parcels in the Indian cities. Positive measures
challenge and taken towards improving ease of
doing business in real estate. This certainly
doesn't mean that Indian government has done
nothing. The ranks are relative performances, as
seen from the stronger correlation between the
DTF scores and ranks. This does mean that other
countries such as Africa and Asia are perhaps
doing far better in the terms of reforming the
manufacturing and real estate competitiveness
when compared to India. The report has
acknowledged efforts in India in terms of
Streamlining the business incorporation
processes Single window approval system for
building plans Bankruptcy and insolvency
Easing tax compliance procedures through
consolidation through GST, online filing, etc.)
Easing the import-export border compliance
procedures Also, it confirms that after
establishing the recovery of debt tribunals in
India, non-performing the loans have actually
reduced by 28 which leads to a reduction in
complete interest rates. It is, however,
highlighted that some persisting challenges, for
example, the World Bank sees inefficient
licensing as well as the size restrictions as
continuing to hamper complete India's factor
productivity. There could be whopping 40 or 60
improvement in total factor productivity if India
overcomes the challenges. The outcome from recent
modified IBC code will closely be monitored while
having a strong bearing on doing business rank as
well as DTF score next year. There is a
requirement to focus on the initiatives or
reforms like Make in India', Housing for All',
insolvency, land acquisition and contract
enforcement to overcome the challenges. The good
news here is that India is a shining star amongst
the prime investible markets this year while
exhibiting the remarkable progress in the DTF
scores. India's massive improvement on World
Bank's EODB index is certainly a creditable
achievement, a lot requires to be done in the
future as well to further improve on it.
