Bhubaneswar:14/3/24:Setting a new milestone in e-governance in Odisha, CM Naveen Patnaik inaugurated the Online Incentive Management System developed by OCAC Odisha. The online portal facilitates submission of applications by entrepreneurs to get their incentives sanctioned under Odisha’s IT, Electronics, Data Centre, BPO, and Semiconductor Manufacturing and Fabless Policies.
Expressing happiness over this online system, CM said this is perhaps the first time any state has created a platform for incentive management for IT/Electronics Industries in a faceless manner through an online platform. This system will make it easier for companies to avail incentives under various policies of Electronics & Information Technology Department, Government of Odisha. These initiatives are not just about technology; they are about making governance more accessible, transparent, and user-friendly for everyone, CM added.
CM also launched New District Websites developed under ‘Standardized Website Framework’ (SWF), in line with transformational 5T initiative, and said the initiative is another step in state’s technological transformation. CM highlighted that the new websites are extremely user-friendly for all demographic segments of society and will strengthen transparency & efficiency while acting as true models of 5T governance which has set a new benchmark in the nation.
The Online Incentive Management System will provide multiple advantages over physical application submission, such as easy submission & uploading of documents, single window portal facility, error-checks for applications, and message alerts. It also relies on a series of security procedures to prevent any unauthorized access. With help of this portal, a company will be able to submit its application any day during the week, 24 hours a day.
