“Pre-Budget 2025 is a pivotal opportunity to strengthen India’s position as a digital powerhouse. As we continue to advance in areas like AI, cloud computing, and cybersecurity, there is an urgent need for policies that support robust IT infrastructure and prioritize data security. We hope this budget allocates significant investments in upgrading digital infrastructure, especially in Tier 2 and Tier 3 cities, fostering inclusivity and innovation across the nation. Additionally, incentives for businesses to adopt next-gen technologies like zero-trust architectures and AI-driven threat detection can bolster our cyber resilience.

Strengthening data protection laws and promoting public-private partnerships in cybersecurity are equally crucial to mitigate evolving threats. A focus on skill development programs tailored to emerging IT domains will help bridge the talent gap and sustain our growth trajectory. With visionary reforms and allocations, Budget 2025 can empower Indian enterprises to thrive in a secure, globally competitive digital ecosystem”.
