The areas highlighted by the industry body for more attention include macro-economy, mining, manufacturing, land acquisition, energy, labour reforms, skill development, taxation, financial sector and Companies Act.
On macro-economy, it hoped that the government would stay the course on fiscal discipline.
"Setting a ceiling on subsidy expenditure would be an important step in that direction," said CII President Sumit Mazumder.
The industry body suggested that all subsidy disbursal may be converted into direct benefit transfer (DBT) by linking Jan Dhan Yojana, Aadhar and mobile technology or the JAM trinity, including for foodgrains, LPG and kerosene, within two years.

On Land Acquisition Bill, CII suggested that compensation package should be reviewed to reduce rehabilitation and resettlement costs as sellers receive multiples of market value on acquisition.
The consent clause from Gram Sabhas should be dropped as it is already required from land owners for Schedule V areas, it suggested.
"There is huge need for ex-ante zoning of land for identification of land use over a 100 year time horizon and establishment of State Land Bank Corporations for scientific acquisition and disbursal of land parcels for industrialisation and urbanisation," Mazumder said.
"The government has exceeded the expectations of industry in the area of economic reforms. We are hopeful that the government would continue to maintain strong momentum of reforms going forward," Mazumder added.
The industry body categorised the government's achievements during the year into four areas: corruption-free governance; economic diplomacy; empowerment of states; and putting in place key policies to revive investment in the economy.
