\nIndia’s overall rank in the World Bank’s Ease of Doing Business improved significantly from 142 in 2014 to 63 in 2019 (DoDB 2020 report).

\nWhile parameters like ‘Starting a Business’, ‘Getting Electricity’, and ‘Paying Taxes’ saw substantial improvements in India’s rank during this period, the parameter ‘Registering Property’ showed a deterioration in rank. This suggests that reforms related to property registration did not keep pace with the improvements seen globally or in other areas within India.
\n<\/section>\n
\nSpecific ranks in the DoDB 2020 report (reflecting 2019 status) show India’s rank in ‘Registering Property’ at 154, which was worse than its rank in the DoDB 2015 report (reflecting 2014 status), where it was around 120. This contrasts sharply with parameters like ‘Getting Electricity’ (rank 25 in DoDB 2020 vs ~137 in DoDB 2015).
