Hi, I was just wondering if this budget is FOSS friendly indirectly. Excise duty on packaged softwares is raised to 12%.
Now, considering most of the FOSS deployment in India is provided as a service either by individual consultants or companies, which invites a service tax of 12.5%. Any ideas? -N -- Peace, Love and Compile the kernel. http://www.nishants.net Forgot the famous last words?
