“I am pleased to see the focus on education and skilling in the Union Budget ’23. The government’s initiatives, including the setting up of three centres of excellence for Artificial Intelligence in top educational institutions, the launch of Pradhan Mantri Kaushal Vikas Yojana 4.0, and the creation of a unified Skill India Digital platform, will greatly benefit the youth of our nation. These initiatives align with Miles Education’s mission to empower and equip the next generation of professionals with the skills and knowledge they need to succeed in their careers. However, despite all the steps taken to promote the digital ecosystem, the GST rate on educational and training services, which includes PG certifications and executive programs from any institution, private or public remains unchanged. This continues to form an entry barrier for the workforce to become future-ready. All in all, we look forward to supporting the government in realizing its vision of “Make AI in India and Make AI work for India” and helping the youth of India reach their full potential.”
