550 business regulations were mapped for analysis, simplification, and elimination of unnecessary laws in the process of building this portal.

Ansari said that all the systems and procedures will be automated for the facilitation of the business community and, “Soon, there will be a single-window facility for registration of businesses that will be communicated to all relevant departments and organizations through an integrated system.”

Before this, BOI has already launched three portals, including Electronic Joint Venture (EJV), Branch Liaison Management Information System (BLMIS), and Special Economic Zones (SEZs) Information Portal, to digitize all services for the benefit of investors.
