The Dataquest-IDC e-Governance Satisfaction Index 2005 A Report February 2006
Executive Summary Better governance is high on the agenda of all state governments, with a definite need to improve internal efficiencies and reach out faster to citizens. A proliferation of e-Governance and computerization initiatives across the country now use information and communications technology (ICT) as a means to achieve more effective delivery of government services and governance in general. In terms of overall perceived improvement in the delivery of government services, which collates both primary and secondary data, IDC found Kerala, Delhi, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh and Goa to be the top 5 states, in that order. Rajasthan, Orissa, Punjab, Himachal Pradesh and West Bengal show the least improvement in the delivery of government services, in order of worst to better. About 8 states performed better in terms of delivery of citizen services over delivery of services to corporates. These are Gujarat, Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal and West Bengal. But 10 states scored better in terms of delivery of egovernance services to corporates as compared to common citizens. These states are Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Delhi, Goa, Haryana, Himachal Pradesh, Karnataka, Orissa, Punjab and Rajasthan. In general, the offices of the income tax department in most states scored well, both in terms of delivery of services to citizens and corporates as well as in terms of quality and availability of services. Passport offices also scored well overall. E-payments seem to be working successfully in selected states. In fact, e-payments are a strong e-Governance benefit for citizens in the states of Goa, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh and for corporates in the states of Andhra Pradesh, Goa, Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh. Police and security, judiciary and land-related functions like registration, sale and purchase and ownership enquiries are pain areas in most states for citizens as well as corporates. E-initiatives for improving the service delivery of water and power utilities are also areas of concern. Businesses suffer mediocre e-Governance services when it comes to availing government incentives and grants, keeping track of government tenders and contracts and seeking assistance for launching/running a small business enterprise. However, businesses across states agree in general that e-governance has made it easier to function. The specific benefits are: reduced number of tax forms, timely and accurate tax information, ease of obtaining documents and information needed to conduct business abroad, and the creation of a secure environment for the cheaper and more effective transaction of goods and services. In terms of the quality of the e-initiatives for providing citizen services by various departments, the income tax department scored the highest, followed by education, passport services, and facilitation of power and water utility services, in that order. The income tax department, passport services and education scored highest for availability of their services through einitiatives for citizens.

The police and security department scored the worst in terms of both quality and availability of their e-initiatives for citizens. For corporates, the best e-initiatives were rated as those undertaken by the income tax department, followed by the sales tax department and passport services. These departments also scored well in terms of the availability of their services through e-initiatives for corporates and so did the power and water utilities. In general, the gap between the best and worst performer state for each government service is very wide, showing immense disparities in the implementation of e-Governance initiatives. There seems to be little correlation between IT spends and improvements on account of eGovernance initiatives or clarity of a state’s IT vision and improvements on account of eGovernance initiatives. Goa is the only state that performs well on the overall ranking and has high IT budgets and spends. Kerala, which ranks first overall, also ranks high on IT vision and planned per capita IT spend. Conversely, states like Punjab that have high rankings on IT vision and high per capita IT spend rank very low on improvements on account of e-Governance initiatives.

I. Aims and Objectives, Research Methodology Research Objective To assess the availability of ICT infrastructure, the rollout of e-Governance projects of select Indian states and evaluate the impact of these projects on the delivery of government services to common citizens and corporates. Research Methodology This study was conducted in three phases: Phase I Desk Research In this phase, extensive desk research was conducted and IDC knowledgebase was used to identify and shortlist 18 major states out of the 35 states and union territories of India. The final selection selected was based on the states’ Human Development Index (HDI) rank. Phase 1I Survey of State IT Secretaries/Heads of State Nodal IT Agencies, Secondary Research A survey of the state IT Secretaries/heads of state nodal IT agencies of the 18 selected states was conducted to get a first-hand feel of the respective states’ ICT policy/vision and understand their priorities in terms of rollout/implementation of IT and e-Governance projects. Each state was profiled in terms of the clarity of its IT vision and goals and the scope of the various e-Governance projects in terms of services offered, number of towns/municipal areas/villages/block panchayats covered or to be covered, expected benefits to the state’s citizens and so on. A percentile method was employed to allocate scores to the states on individual parameters, with the state reporting the best initiatives being allocated a percentile score of 100. These factors were together allocated a combined weight of 9% in the overall assessment. Each state was also assessed on the budgetary allocation/planned or actual spending on IT and eGovernance projects. For this purpose the total IT spending (hardware, software and IT services only) on recently implemented projects (2004-05) and planned IT spending on new/ongoing projects (2005-06 and 2006-07) were compared. A percentile method was employed to allocate scores to the states on each year’s IT spending, with the state reporting the highest per capita IT spending being allocated a percentile score of 100. This actual/planned IT spending was allocated a weightage of 6% in the overall assessment. Finally, the 18 selected states were rated on the basis of availability and usage of ICT and social/educational infrastructure like number of PCs per 1000 population, estimated per capita overall IT spending, number of telephones per 1000 population, Internet subscribers per 1000 population and the capacity of the state to produce technically qualified manpower. States were again ranked using a percentile method and these factors were allocated a combined weight of 10% in the overall assessment.

These ‘service types’ were evaluated on the following three broad parameters: i) ii) iii)
Improvement in ease of interaction while actually availing a government service Perceived improvement in service availability Perceived improvement in service quality.
To make a meaningful and broad-based assessment of the above-named citizen and corporate services, a primary survey of 1,350 citizen users and business users was conducted across the 18 selected states. 75 interviews were conducted in each state amongst common citizens, professionals (lawyers, doctors chartered accountants) and administrative/business heads of small, mid-size and large corporates. To arrive at a 100-point index a 5-point ‘Improvement Rating’ scale was used to evaluate the feedback on each type of government service and the average score for each service type multiplied by a factor of 20. The scores obtained from this survey were allocated a weightage of 75% in the overall assessment and ranking of the states, reflecting the importance of the perceived improvements in the eyes of common citizens and business users alike. Hence, the individual service-wise and total scores for each state reported in this survey reflect the extent to which citizens and corporates perceive improvement in delivery of government services after/as a result of deployment of e-Governance initiatives.

II. IDC Opinion E-governance is a prime area of concern for state governments in India, not only as a means of achieving efficiency in the running of state departments, but more importantly, as a means of providing an easy and effective way for citizens to access basic government services. Investment in communication and information technology is today considered an absolute necessity in improving effectiveness of citizen services and therefore impacting the quality of people’s lives. Despite the recognition of these issues, this has been an area of considerable challenge for states. Increasing e-literacy, reaching out to large expanses of areas, computerizing decades of manual records, high infrastructure costs—these are but some of the barriers. Some of the areas where states have achieved moderate success have been those of e-payments, online provision of information and online ordering of documents, passport services and incometax functions like applying for a PAN card and filing returns and claims. E-initiatives have brought in several benefits to citizens in the form of general ease of dealing with state government and municipal departments. Businesses also find it easier to access information, pay taxes, buy and sell goods and services etc., thus reducing the cost of conducting business operations. However, several areas still require attention. Essential services like water and power are still poor performers in terms of e-initiatives, and so are state public transport, employment exchanges and functions related to sale and purchase of land/real estate like servicing of ownership enquiries, issue of ownership certificates and so on. A uniformly poor performance in the e-initiatives of the police and judiciary is a major cause for concern. But the biggest disappointment to citizens and corporates alike is in the fact that e-initiatives seem to have failed to reduce corruption and harassment or increase transparency in the functioning of the government departments. For e-initiatives to succeed in the long run it is important for users to perceive these improvements very clearly, as corruption and harassment are the most painful aspects of the citizens' interaction with the government. Most states are rolling out several initiatives in typical areas like networking and communications, computerization of land records, education (admissions to professional/engineering/technical courses) and, grievance monitoring and redressal systems for various government departments. With increased investments in e-Governance and a healthy competition amongst states to offer effective citizen services and achieve greater efficiencies, e-Governance will be a major area of growth, and therefore ICT will be a major expenditure for India’s public sector in the years ahead. Besides increased investments, states need to focus on putting in quality infrastructure and mechanisms to educate and incentivise people in government as well citizens to use eGovernance facilities effectively. The states need to have strong feedback mechanisms to assess the needs of the citizens and businesses so that they are able to optimize their ICT investments accordingly and maximize returns to society as a whole.

IV. State Factsheets Kerala Comment Kerala's perceived improvements in delivery of government services by means of e-Governance projects and by means of computerization of government departments are above average. The state ranks 1st amongst the 18 major states of the country in terms of overall rankings. The state has improved substantially in certain aspects that appear as pain areas to all other states, like police and security, which emerges as a strength area for citizen as well as corporate services. Overall, in terms of services, Kerala delivers better in citizen-related services than for corporate. The quality and availability of services in the judicial and passport services are found improved due to the e-initiatives in these areas, while there is very little improvement in the quality and services in the land department. For corporates, e-initiatives by the municipal corporation show the most improvement in the quality and availability of service, while the land property department shows least improvement.

Delhi Comment Although Delhi ranks an overall 2nd in terms of perceived improvement in delivery of government services through e-Governance initiatives, the state does not fare very well in terms of specific services. For most services, Delhi’s scores are either average or slightly higher than average. On the whole, Delhi fares better on government service delivery to common citizens than to corporates. Pain area scores for corporate services, in particular, are nearly the lowest among all states, especially incentives and grants and provision of water and electricity. Filing of corporate income tax in claims gets the lowest score among all states. Improvements in the quality of e-incentives from the power department and in the availability of e-incentives from the water department for corporate slightly change the dismal picture. The key benefit to both citizens and corporate is reasonable charges.

Gujarat Comment Gujarat ranks 3rd overall in terms of perceived improvement in delivery of government services through e-Governance programs. Gujarat shows impressive results in the area of citizen services, getting the highest scores for applying for driving license, e-initiatives related to the power utility, filing of returns, filing of claims and PAN card application. For corporate services also, IT activities are the strength areas along with power utility and passport. Police and security and judiciary are common pain areas. Maximum improvements are seen in the e-initiatives of the income tax department as far as quality and availability of services are concerned. The main e-governance benefit to citizens is the time taken for transactions. For businesses, the benefits are timely and accurate tax information and e-payments.

Madhya Pradesh Comment Ranking 4th in terms of overall rankings, Madhya Pradesh is one the most impressive states as far as perceived improvement in delivery of government services through e-Governance initiatives go. The pain areas, for both corporate and citizen services are not really low as far as their scores go, except for police and security, which appears to be a serious concern. The state also offers several e-governance benefits. Here too, overall ease of dealing for citizens and ease of obtaining documents to conduct business abroad for corporate achieve the highest scores. The e-initiatives in the judiciary show the maximum improvements while the e-initiatives in police and security show the least improvement in terms of quality and availability of services for citizens. For corporate, the e-initiatives in the water utility show maximum improvements for quality of service and the e-initiatives in the land property department show maximum improvements for availability.

Goa Comment Goa is one of the forerunners for e-Governance in the country, performing well in several services. Goa ranks 5th in the overall rankings of this survey. Water and power utilities are strength areas for citizen and corporate e-initiative services, while police and security, land registration are some common pain areas. Across both citizen and corporate services, e-initiatives in the water utility show the highest improvement for quality and availability of services, while e-initiatives in police and security show the least change in both quality and availability. The main e-governance benefit to citizens is transparency. Corporate benefits include monitoring and tracking applications, reduced number of tax forms and timely and accurate information to businesses.

Karnataka Comment The improvement in delivery of government services in the state of Karnataka through its eGovernance initiatives is perceived to be above average. Karnataka ranks 6th in the overall eGovernance rankings. However, the state is emerging as one of the foremost states in terms of the projects planned and being rolled out. In comparison with other states, services like state transport services and municipal tax appear to be strong in citizen services. Overall performance is better for citizenrelated services than for corporate. The e-initiatives of the income tax department show the maximum improvements in terms of quality and availability of services for citizen and corporate, while the e-initiatives in the land department and the municipal corporation show little improvement. Interestingly, e-initiatives in passport services show the most improvements in quality for corporate but the least improvement in availability for citizens.

Maharashtra Comment As the scores for most parameters are above average, Maharashtra seems to be faring reasonably well in providing better government services to its citizens through its various e-Governance initiatives. Maharashtra ranks 7th in overall perceived improvement in delivery of government services through e-Governance initiatives. Strength areas for citizen activities are the income tax-related activities. Strength areas for corporate activities are also income tax services, license and permit renewals and vehicle registration. Pain areas for both citizen and corporate include police and security, judiciary and enquiry regarding ownership of land. The e-initiatives of the income tax department, predictably, show the maximum improvements in both quality and availability of services. However, unlike other states, Maharashtra shows great improvement in the e-initiatives for education services. Overall, citizens have benefited the most from e-governance in the areas of e-payment and monitoring and tracking of applications. Corporate benefits include a secure business environment and ease of obtaining information for conducting business abroad.

Tamil Nadu Comment Ranked 7th for overall e-Governance improvements, Tamil Nadu shows reasonable improvements in perceived delivery of government services through its e-Governance initiatives. The state stands out for the improvements in the e-initiatives of the passport services for citizens and corporate, in both quality and availability of services. Other strength areas for citizen services are income tax activities and education, while the strong areas for corporate services are IT activities and sales/service tax. E-initiatives in land property and judiciary show little improvement from the point of view of quality and availability. The main e-governance benefit for citizens is e-payment, while for corporates it is the creation of a secure business environment for cost-effective acquisition of goods and services.

Chhattisgarh Comment A relatively new state, Chhattisgarh's perceived improvements on account of its e-Governance initiatives are impressive in several areas. In terms of rankings, Chhattisgarh ranks 8th in overall ranking. The state has witnessed moderate improvements in delivery of government services by means of e-Governance initiatives. For services like education and vehicle registration for citizens and IT functions for corporate, it scores the highest among all states. Transport services like applying for driving license and vehicle registration fare high among the services for citizens, as do power utility, education and passport services. Besides income tax functions, land registration and passport services score high among the corporate services. Agriculture, land transactions and employment exchange are the pain areas for citizens while business registration, incentives and grants and tenders and contracts are some of the pain areas for corporate services. Police and security is a concern area across the board. Citizens as well as corporates are benefited by e-governance services in the area of monitoring and tracking applications. Corporate benefits also include ease of dealing and e-payments. E-initiatives in education and passport services show considerable improvements for quality and e-initiatives in passport services show improvements for availability of services. E-initiatives in police and security are, once again, the concern area for quality and availability of service.

In terms of rankings from this survey, Andhra Pradesh scores 8th in terms of overall ranking. The state scored the highest among the 18 states surveyed on several government services such as small business assistance, tenders and contracts, financial assistance to industries, sale and purchase of land, and income tax arbitration and legal settlement.

Uttar Pradesh Comment Uttar Pradesh scored an overall rank of 9. The state has witnessed moderate improvements in delivery of government services on account of e-Governance initiatives. Besides filing of income tax returns, UP does well in perceived improvements in state transport services and healthcare services for citizens. All processes related to land — sale, purchase, registration, enquiry regarding ownership — are however pain areas. For corporates, income tax dept procedures, sales and service tax and water utility emerged strength areas. In terms of quality and availability, the functioning of the income tax department shows maximum improvements in its e-initiatives for citizens while the e-initiatives by the sales tax department show maximum improvements for corporate. E-governance has benefited corporate entities by reducing the number of tax forms to file and making it easy to understand and comply with legislation.

Uttaranchal Comment Uttaranchal was ranked 10th overall. Uttaranchal's perceived improvements on account of e-Governance initiatives are uniformly average, with even the scores of strength areas like state transport, healthcare and water utility for citizen services hovering around a mere 60 points. Judicial services are a pain area for both citizens and corporates. Income tax dept functioning and financial assistance for small-scale entrepreneurs are the strength areas in terms of services rendered to corporates. Unlike other states, e-initiatives by the municipal corporations show maximum perceived improvements in terms of quality and availability of services for corporate respondents. The einitiatives by the income tax department show maximum improvement in the quality of services for citizens, while e-initiatives in state transport show the most improvements in availability of services for citizens. The key benefit to corporates is the ease of getting documents to conduct overseas business and for citizens the key benefit is in the overall clarity in rules, procedures and regulations.

Haryana Comment Haryana was ranked 11th overall. Haryana is an unusual state in the sense that it has agriculture as it foremost-perceived strength area in terms of citizen services. Sales tax, healthcare, PAN card application and power are other strength areas for citizen activities. Municipal tax and judiciary are pain areas. Haryana does not fare well in terms of corporate e-governance services, with small business assistance and clearance of hypothecation as the main problem areas. The quality of e-initiatives from the water utility for citizens shows maximum improvements but little improvement in availability. The main e–governance benefit to citizens is monitoring and tracking of applications, and for corporates it is the time taken to complete transactions and epayments.

Himachal Pradesh Comment Himachal Pradesh was ranked 11th overall. It showed marginal perceived improvements in delivery of government services as a result of e-Governance initiatives. Unlike most other states, the strength areas for both corporate and citizen services are in the areas of land acquisition and sale, registration and ownership enquiries. However, the scores in these areas are very low. Police and security and water and power utilities are pain areas. E-initiatives in the land department show the maximum improvements for quality and availability of services for citizens. E-initiatives in income tax and education also show considerable improvements. E-initiatives in transport show the most improvement for quality and availability of corporate services while e-initiatives in the power department show little improvements for quality and e-initiatives in the water department show little improvement for availability of corporate services. The e-governance benefit to businesses is perceived to be in terms of clarity of overall rules, procedures and regulations. There are no perceptible benefits to citizens.

Punjab Comment Punjab was ranked 12th overall. It scored poorly as far as perceived improvements in delivery of government services through e-Governance initiatives is concerned. The e-Governance initiatives of the state’s transport department showed maximum perceived improvement for quality of service while e-Governance initiatives in the water and power utilities sectors showed little improvement in terms of quality. Perceived improvement in the availability and reliability of police and security services due to their e-Governance initiatives also emerged to be a low scoring area. Businesses have benefited from e-Governance initiatives however, since it has created a secure business environment that supports cost-effective acquisition of raw materials, goods and services.

Orissa Comment Orissa was ranked 13th overall. It is an average state as far as perceived improvements in delivery of government services through e-Governance initiatives is concerned. Strength areas perceived by common citizens are in the areas of passport services, power utility billing and payment and income tax services like PAN card application, and filing of tax returns and claims. Income tax services and passport services are perceived strongly by corporates as well. Police and security services and vehicle registrations are pain areas for both citizens and corporates.

Rajasthan Comment Rajasthan ranked 14th (lowest among the 18 states studied) overall is a poor state as far as perceived improvements in the delivery of government services through e-Governance projects is concerned. In general, passport services and income tax functions appear to be strength areas while police and security and judiciary are concern areas. For citizen services, healthcare, applying for birth/death/marriage certificates and educational services are also pain areas, though educational services score high for availability. The main benefit perceived by citizens is in terms of availability of information on government rules, regulations and procedures. The important benefits perceived by corporates are in terms of easier availability of information regarding procedures to conduct overseas business.
