On the face of it, nothing wrong if government employees conduct some research into considerations that may positively influence social change in the country. The fact they might behave as though the manufacturers are obliged to follow the Indian government's ideas on what constitutes a sustainable market is besides the point. Determining what features are necessary for device demand must surely be the orgasmic fulfillment of a bureaucrat's dreary life. Perhaps manufacturers don't need to learn this, but the Indian government has been operating for years on the principle that desirable and necessary features in a device are determined by the amount of subsidy money the government is willing to put into it. It simply doesn't know how to deal with a situation where subsidies are irrelevant.

Utter nonsense !! And, moreover IRIS can be fooled in multiple ways. If for any reason DeitY is able to convince the manufacturers and this is implemented the cost of phones will go high and will hamper the smart phone penetration; which will impact digital growth.
