Kejriwal launches mobile app for business registration

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal on Tuesday launched the DVAT MSewa Application, a mobile phone app, through which traders can register with the VAT department.

He said the app will ensure the instantaneous registration of business and will ensure end of the 'inspector Raj'.

"In the last one year, a number of steps have been taken to end inspector raj, make doing business a pleasant experience and resolve problems faced by the trader community," Kejriwal said here.

A Delhi government statement said that the app will help total 41,000 pending requests waiting registration.

The government also announced that it will soon start a special 24x7 helpline number - 155055 - backed by a professionally managed call centre to facilitate start of a new business and resolve problems of registered dealers.
