"Mr Ninad Karpe Managing Director and CEO of Aptech Ltd, says, "Budget may not have a sixer, but has many boundaries. I am particularly delighted with the announcement of availability of finance for students wanting to pursue higher education. I have been strongly propagating this idea for some time. The increased emphasis on the social sector, infrastructure sector with a reduction in corporate tax has been a welcome step."
"I am pleased with the focus given to secondary education with the announcement of 80,000 secondary schools. For the past six years, more than 96 per cent of eligible children enter a primary school, which is the sine qua non for universal education. This increased focus on secondary education will be a tremendous effort towards decreasing the 80% drop out rate. This proposal has rightly addressed the need to increase the reach and quality of higher education. With the introduction of initiatives such as the National Skills Mission, there is scope for a substantial increase in the pool of skilled youth. The Budget has set the right foundation for the next four years," adds Mr. Karpe."
