Nikhil Madrasi, Honorary Minister of the Chamber of Commerce, delivered the welcome address. While presenting the presentation of SGCCI Global Connect Mission 84, he said that efforts are being made by Chamber President Ramesh Vaghasia to connect the traders and exporters of India as well as the traders of different countries of the world through Mission 84. To increase exports from India, the Chamber of Commerce has created an online international platform under the Mission 84 Project, through which efforts are being made to connect 84,000 entrepreneurs from India and 84,000 businessmen from different countries of the world.

Deven Choksi said that infrastructure is now being constructed at a very fast pace in the country. In the year 2020, when the countries of the world were thinking about running their economies, how could the Indian government bring new investment in the country’s economy? She was thinking in the same direction. During the Corona period, when the economy of other countries had come to a halt globally, in February 2020, the Indian government presented the budget with a plan for the next ten years.

India’s economy reached US$1 trillion from 1947 to 2014. From 2014 to 2023, it has reached 4 trillion US dollars. Efforts are being made to take India’s economy to US$ 6 to 7 trillion and then to US$ 12 trillion in the next four years. In this way the capital in India is likely to increase three times. Because of the UPI system, people have become directly connected to each other. The role of the bank has become secondary. Every merchant is now making digital payments. In India, the Central Bank digital currency e-Rupee has been formed and in 30 different countries of the world, B2B payments are being made with the digital rupee. B2B and B2C payments are now being exchanged with global merchants.

He further said that apart from the railway sector, there are big opportunities in the next ten years in the crude oil, coal, gold, defense and education sectors. The new education policy will be implemented by the year 2030 and then the entire infrastructure will be developed to attract foreign students to study in India. Surat should also try to attract foreign students.
