It really depends on a couple of factors: Nature of business, location, regional Govt etc. Corruption at lowest level is the most difficult to remove though because the cabal of Babus have it in their interests to make things as difficult as possible. Your tone is not in keeping up with HN etiquette.

Well, if ease of doing business was so improved under Modi govt like the propaganda accounts pretend online, why is it taking that guy months to setup his manufacturing facility? Isn't "make in India" rebranded to "local vocal" and " self reliance" the new rebranded cliches which the current government and their workers throw at others? If the guy really knows how to set up businesses in weeks then let him start a company helping others set up businesses I know for a fact that unless you pay bribes or you're connected politically, it's very difficult to start a business in India.

  Update from that link: > It has been brought to my attention that there was a mistake by an entry level employee. > So the Revenue Department itself was supposed to get all the NOCs required by going to all those offices, but an entry level employee forgot to add my file to the list of NA’s to be done. > So now I have been told that all the NOC’s will be taken care of by the Revenue Department, Collector Office. Doubt it's a systematic problem.

    The blog reached a world wide audience. govt must have kicked all the relevant dept in the ass for this to happen Indian govt employees don't care what issue you face until you go digital They recently sent me an electric bill of 1000x of my actual bill by mistake I called them for weeks nobody picked phone Raised ticket in their app, nobody bothered I sent one tweet out -> within one hour I got email from head of electrcity department They got my email id from my twitter username. I had given them 0 personal details. That's the level of work they do if you go digital Collector office gives 0 shit about people in general unless they're rich or politically connected It is laughable to think that to get a single document like birth certificate, we have to pay thousands in bribe but business related NoCs will be automatically taken care by collector office??? The collector is King. His office is the office of the King.
