It's a big bonanza and gift from Modi government for shopkeepers, home buyers, businessman and flat allottees in the national capital. Delhi Development Authority (DDA) has taken key decisions, including removal of conversion charges for over 100 markets in Delhi. The decision will impact more than 50,000 shopkeepers. The DDA meeting chaired by Lieutenant Governor Anil Baijal has abolished conversion charges for shops in over 100 markets, as report in IANS said.
Traders and shopkeepers have been protesting against sealing of shops in the capital.
The sops are also important as the trading community is feeling threatened with the advent of online marketplaces and a weak consumer sentiment which has hit business. Traders say that this year's Diwali was perhaps the most dull and low on sentiment seen in many years, the report added.
