India spends a low percentage of its GDP on research and development compared to other countries, and contributes a small percentage to global research output and patents. This is due to factors such as lack of quality education, limited private sector investment in R&D, insufficient funding and infrastructure for research, and poor coordination between government, industries, and institutions. The document proposes solutions like increasing public-private partnerships in research and sharing resources, strengthening intellectual property laws, mandating R&D departments in large private companies, and establishing specialized research universities and public sector research organizations. This is expected to reduce import dependency and the current account deficit while boosting innovation and economic growth.

India spends a low percentage of its GDP on research and development compared to other countries like China and the US, and contributes a small share to global research output. Some key reasons for this are the lack of quality education in research, limited private sector investment in R&D, and insufficient coordination between government, industries, and research institutions. The document proposes several solutions to address this, including increasing public-private partnerships in research, improving intellectual property laws, making R&D departments mandatory for large private industries, and establishing specialized research universities and public sector undertakings. The goal is to increase India's research capabilities, reduce technology imports, and boost economic growth.
Why is Research and Developement in India Lagging?
The Indian Govt.'s R&D efforts have become almost notional in the last two decades at least,. Burdened with bureaucratic high-cost scientific research agencies modeled on India's colonial civil service has ensured that the state-funded R&D sector has become almost irrelevant, notwithstanding its giant physical resources. To the contrary, India's private sector has come forward and invested in R&D with proportionate gains in productivity and revenues. Governments must ther4efore move from a control to a facilitative role by establishing a National R&D Fund with token participation to synergize India's R&D effort so that GDP growth rates jump and national wealth multiplies.

Webinar Recording: https://www.panagenda.com/webinars/hcl-notes-und-domino-lizenzkostenreduzierung-in-der-welt-von-dlau/
DLAU und die Lizenzen nach dem CCB- und CCX-Modell sind für viele in der HCL-Community seit letztem Jahr ein heißes Thema. Als Notes- oder Domino-Kunde haben Sie vielleicht mit unerwartet hohen Benutzerzahlen und Lizenzgebühren zu kämpfen. Sie fragen sich vielleicht, wie diese neue Art der Lizenzierung funktioniert und welchen Nutzen sie Ihnen bringt. Vor allem wollen Sie sicherlich Ihr Budget einhalten und Kosten sparen, wo immer möglich. Das verstehen wir und wir möchten Ihnen dabei helfen!
Wir erklären Ihnen, wie Sie häufige Konfigurationsprobleme lösen können, die dazu führen können, dass mehr Benutzer gezählt werden als nötig, und wie Sie überflüssige oder ungenutzte Konten identifizieren und entfernen können, um Geld zu sparen. Es gibt auch einige Ansätze, die zu unnötigen Ausgaben führen können, z. B. wenn ein Personendokument anstelle eines Mail-Ins für geteilte Mailboxen verwendet wird. Wir zeigen Ihnen solche Fälle und deren Lösungen. Und natürlich erklären wir Ihnen das neue Lizenzmodell.
Nehmen Sie an diesem Webinar teil, bei dem HCL-Ambassador Marc Thomas und Gastredner Franz Walder Ihnen diese neue Welt näherbringen. Es vermittelt Ihnen die Tools und das Know-how, um den Überblick zu bewahren. Sie werden in der Lage sein, Ihre Kosten durch eine optimierte Domino-Konfiguration zu reduzieren und auch in Zukunft gering zu halten.
Diese Themen werden behandelt

Causes • Out of 260 lakh students who were enrolled at the undergraduate level and above in 2011-12, only 0.4% had registered for PhD. • Not even 1 Indian university ranks among the Top 100 Global Universities. Lack of quality education:- 1 out of 6 graduates in India is engineer. Here is graph proving their quality and educational structures. Restriction on investment of private sectors in R&D:- R&D in various technology is conducted by and limited to, Govt organizations. The quality of which is quiet deplorable. Hence forcing to procure the required technology from abroad. Provision of proper funding & infrastructure for R&D:- Though 0.95% GDP is spent on R&D, but it lacks the planning on infrastructure. Its also not reachable on various sector equally. Also compared to other countries it lacks the quality of equipment in R&D. • Lack of co-ordination between Govt , Industries and Institutions:- Knowledge required in industries in not taught institutes because of lack of co-ordination between industries and institutions. Also ,process of granting and reception of funds and resources is time spending and critical. • Lack of innovative competitive exams for developing excellence:- India lags from other countries in hosting exams for building skillsets of students. This includes skill development and vocational related examinations. 8 38 40 41 45 14 14 18 13 30 0 10 20 30 40 50 Mathematical Technical Problem Solving English Leadership % of Chinese and Indian Engineers reported to be lacking skills in selected areas.

- 4. Proposed Solutions Proposed solution model • Promoting Public private partnership (PPP) in building universities and PSU’s. • Sharing and transfer of funds between Govt and private sector for technological advancement. • Development and production of quality human resource. • Sharing of this human resources between institutes and industries. • Strengthing of laws and norms for active and minimum participation of industries in R & D. • Simplifying complicated procedure for filing patents and research grant(PhD) by amending law. • Formation of new CAG(Comptroller and Auditor General)cum industry accreditation bodies for audits on PSUs and universities. • Obligations on timely project completion and security in real time projects like defense ,aerospace etc.
- 5. Public and Private collaboration in Government centered sectors Formation of Laws Increase % of R&D in Budget Improvement in Intellectual Property Right Compulsory R&D Department for Private Industry Research Institutes and Universities Formation of PSU with participation of Public and Private section CAG + Private Sector body Audits Proposed Implementation Model
- 6. Improvement in Intellectual Property Right Compulsory R&D Department for Private Industry • IT sector has a lion`s share in GDP of India, even though according to Indian Patent Act(1970) ,Patents for Algorithms, Mathematical models, software and formulas cannot be filed .It should be improved. • Simpler and efficient procedure for granting the patent . 71 23 13 8 7 6 0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 Sectorwise R&D Units Sectorwise R&D Units • The Indian market is importing technology from foreign countries which increases the total import percentage leading to depreciation of Indian currency . • The law should be amended to make compulsory R &D department in Private Industry according to their market value and reduction in the import of technology which support research in production. • This law should be compulsory only for the giants of the market. Other industries SMEs(small and medium) must focus on Indian products. Implementation
- 7. Formation of R&D Institute & Universities Increase the number of Public Sector Undertaking • It emphasis to formulate special R&D university , under which different colleges devoted for research and development will be providing bachelor degree in research after 10+2 and focus on particular research area only .The various areas of research will be included according to need and guidance of market. This proposed university will head all the R&D departments of existing universities . • These researchers will be directly recruited in PSU`s and Industrial R&D . • These Institutes will conduct competitive level at primary and secondary school level to increase innovation in student. • Formation of different PSU`s devoted specially for lagging R&D sectors in INDIA . • The fund for this will be acquired by increasing window of stakes of FDI in PSU`s. Implementation
- 8. Impact of Proposed Solution • 10% of our budget expenditure(2013-14) is allocated for Defence Sector,70% of which goes for importing from other countries. If the proposed solution works then import can be curbed. And export will also increase to some extent leading to decrease in Current Account Deficit(CAD). • In INDIA Pharmaceutical sector has more research and development but fields like semiconductor, defence , machinery lags in R&D. so due to our proposed solution balance of research and development will be mentioned. • Due to decrease in Current Account Deficit , automatically rupee value will also increase. • Dependency on foreign import will reduce. • Increase in investment and capital foreign reserve of India will increase. 21% 18% 10%12% 11% 17% 4% 7% Expenditure in Budget 2013-2014 Central Plan Interest Payments Defence Subsidies Other Non Plan Expenditure State's Share Of Taxes and Duties Non-Plan Assistance to States And UT govts.
