Foreign Direct Investment Inflows in India - An Overview

V. Backiyavathi

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) refers to the acquisition by a foreign individual or organization of a certain quantity of the stocks or shares of a domestic corporation or firm, or long-term loans provided by a foreign individual or organization to a domestic corporation or firm. The Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) environment in India has undergone a sea change since the inception of economic reforms in 1991. The positive changes can be particularly attributed to the evolving policy framework. The government now acts as a 'facilitator' of private investment by creating an enabling environment. It bridges the gaps in critical infrastructure to encourage investment and acts as a 'partner' to the private sector in 'public-private partnerships' (PPP).
