ICT has brought about a complete change into every walk of life today with businesses not being an exception. Organisations are increasingly embracing new generation business tools like the e-Commerce and e-Business for attaining their goals in convenience. E-Commerce is emerging as a new way of helping business enterprises to compete in the global market-place and thereby contributing to their economic success. In an increasingly competitive and globalised world, particularly the SMEs need to compete more effectively to boost domestic economic activities and contribute toward increasing export earnings. SMEs also continue to play an important role in increasing employment and thus contributing to poverty reduction on a sustainable basis. With spread of technology and infrastructure, rural businesses will be the biggest beneficiaries of e-Commerce. The Internet can help the small enterprises to present themselves to the world with face-lift. With this backdrop this work tries to present the Information Technology and the e-Commerce scenario in the SMEs of Orissa, the prospect of future growth and the empirical analysis of the factors influencing the adoption of IT & e-Business.
