India Delays Laptop Import Restrictions Order

India is delaying the implementation of its import limitations on laptops, tablets, and servers, a day after the unexpected regulation left electronic industry giants in a state of disruption and uncertainty. From a report: New Delhi will provide a "transition period" before implementing the amended import policy, India's Deputy IT Minister Rajeev Chandrasekhar said Friday. The government will offer at least one month to companies to obtain licenses, a government official told local reporters. India's Ministry of Commerce announced Thursday that the new restrictions on import of consumer electronic devices were going into effect immediately. The notification said the government will permit import against a valid license for restricted products. The restriction will also not apply to passengers carrying the mentioned devices in their baggage.

Our current government is notorious for sudden decisions. Most of which do not work. Be it the Demonetisation, farm laws, CAA.

Shooting themselves in the foot

As it is Indian Tech industry struggles due to the 30% customs duty + international shipping + GST + retailer margins, leading to almost 2x the original sale price. Lets fuck em over further and ensure that it continues to lag behind

Laptop Imports Have Reached
