Counterfeiting & Piracy undermines India's Industrial and Innovative fabric and creates a huge disincentive for investment, innovation and research and development.

Counterfeiting is a national problem, which is impacting our economic growth as well as FDI inflow in the Country. It weakens the tax base, for not only do Counterfeit products evade taxes since they are cash-based, but they invite consumers to get into the habit of tax evasion.
