India is a developing country indeed, but it is not far behind its business competitors in the West and Europe. In fact, it is one of the Asian states that have introduced blockchain in most of its industries. In this age of 21stcentury technology where the need for third generation web, also known as Web3.0 is fast picking up the pace, India is going to have it with the blockchain technology as its basis.
