Educomp Solutions, NIIT and Everonn Systems may be the key beneficiaries of the Budget proposal to provide greater allocation to the ‘Mission in Education through IT’ scheme. All the three companies, especially Educomp and NIIT, have working relationships with several State governments in providing IT-enabled education. Rs 900 crore has been allocated for this scheme.

The Budget allocates Rs 120 crore for issuing unique identification numbers through the Unique Identification Authority of India over the next 12-18 months. Bartronics a key player in this segment and having done pilot studies on this project earlier may be well-positioned to take advantage of this proposal.
