About This Commitment
FY 2025/26 budget declared IT as "special industry" with 75% tax exemption on IT export income. 5% final tax for individuals selling IT services abroad. FY 2024/25 declared "IT Decade" targeting Rs 3T IT exports and 1.5M jobs in 10 years. National AI Policy 2082 approved Aug 2025. National AI Centre established under Ministry of Communication. However, no formal "strategic industry" legal declaration yet. Industry leaders call for dedicated IT Promotion Board (not yet formed). Implementation remains weak per NAS-IT president.
