According to my point of view, In today's life, digital India is very helpful to each and every person. Nowadays we saw that all the things are on the internet like net- banking, online shopping, etc.

The government also try to make digital India. So they teach the people of small City and village about the importance of digital India.

In short words, Digital India benefits all those who are able to take the benefit of it. It all depends upon the thinking of people.

GST is applicable from 2017.

It is a single tax on supply of goods and services from manufacturer to the consumers.

A long time ago there were no taxes but later on there were few taxes namely service tax.

But currently before the evolution of GST there existed and still few exist a new and different types of taxes are paid by the common man.

Due to this common and middle man who needs to afford basic needs to lead a daily routine life and is not able to purchase the products because is some random taxes.

Hence GST is divided into CGST and SGST.

When the GST is implemented then the person has to pay the tax under the name of GST but not for any other random taxes.

If any organization or a company ask to pay for the services other than GST then the perso5 can filed a case against him.

This way of tax will benefit to the supplier and even the customer to lead their day to day life with proper profit and with comfortable prices respectively.

The best solution for the fair profit and fair prices is to implement GST completely for all goods and services.

Impose GST make world "BETTER " and "BEST ".

Digital India initiative has allowed us to ease most of our daily work. For buying groceries even the smallest of businesses have started having at least Paytm or PhonePe for accepting money! Internet users increased dramatically after Jio's free internet services which allowed many companies to go online and have a store for its customers. Now a person can learn anything of his choice with no lack of resources!

Students benefited with the initiative through Smart Boards in school and learning apps that proved quite effective in understanding subjects. Also booking of appointments for Driving Licence, Passport has become easy and fast!

Although the benefits, in order for the initiative to be actually successful, we need to make sure that digital literacy is spread to every individual so that they can identify viral Fake News which have led to many fights in India, Online Frauds, Cyber Attacks etc.

I would like to say that it is very beneficial for the people, they don't have to spend a lot of time in doing their things, let us say for transfer of money there is no need to go to the bank, and stand in the queue, now we only have to press some buttons and our work is done, a lots of other stuff we can do easily. But yes some people like people lives in villages are not aware about these things, and are not able to get the benefits and they only stick to the traditional ways. More we are moving towards digitalisation more we making India smarter and more developed where we can compare our countries with other.

In my opinion, digital India is benefiting only a limited share of the country. The reason why I am saying this is because if you see the current scenario of the rural area then I would say only 20 to 30 % people properly use internet service and very few of them are actually aware of new trends in digital world such as Different APP, SOFTWARE, GAMES, IOT, CLOUD, etc. So if we go by numbers then 70 % of Indian citizens live in rural area that means only 30 % of Indians benefiting from Digital India.

In my point of view, is that there are many benefits of digital India as every person is having phone is their hand and the government also provided a lot of apps through which we can solve our day to day problem and standing in long queues in banks, shopping areas and many more by making every person digital we are able to make your things better and we become independent.

Hello everyone,

I think digital India has not benefitted anyone till now. The objectives of digital India programme are very good and beneficiary for nations development but the implementation was not done properly.

One of the main hurdles is digital literacy. Although the government had started many digital literacy programmes, they were not as successful as expected.

Next big hurdle is network connectivity. Even in this case government had started Bharat net programme in order to provide a high-speed broadband connection across all gram panchayats in India, the progress of this programme is proceeding at a very slow speed.

Lastly, I would like to say that, ONLY With proper implementation of a digital India programme, can we see digitalis action in our country.

According to me, Digital India is very much helpful to the people in India, especially for urban people. It helps us to gove online examination, shopping, study, etc. It can reduce the probability of black money through net banking, paytm, phonepay etc. It saves a lot of time and energy. We can communicate with other people in another country.

A very Good Evening to all.

I think Digital India would result in a stronger economy as everything needed or used in our daily lives is online. It would greatly reduce time, cost and efforts to do any work, be it paying your bills, purchase any product, online learning, filing complaints and what not. Cashless Economy would also be a plus point which would have records of each and every transaction and would result in the reduction of Black Money.

Perhaps it would not benifit much to weaker section of society due to lack of resources and education but people can always be educated and trained and system should be upgraded so that all of India can be benefited.

Thank you.

It benefits to those part of the country which has a proper internet connection. One can be benefitted if he knows how to use a mobile phone. There are many illiterate people in our country who still don't have any idea about the online transaction, payment, shopping etc.

So to get the benefit of digital India one must have knowledge about the internet.

The middle class and high-class people get the benefit of digital India. They don't go shopping as they do online shopping. They don't have to carry money everywhere as they do online payment. Whereas poor and illiterate people still have to wait in ATM or bank to take out their money.
