Temporary impact on investment flow to start-ups due to govt curbs: Subramanian

15 Oct 2020 Evaluate

Chief Economic Adviser (CEA) K V Subramanian has said that there will be a temporary impact on investment flow to start-ups due to the curbs imposed by the government to stop opportunistic takeover by firms from countries with which India has border tensions. According to a Press Note 3 issued by the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT) in April, a company or an individual from a country that shares land border with India can invest in any sector only after getting government approval.

Subramanian said investment, both direct and indirect, coming from countries, especially with which India has border tensions, needs to be scrutinised. As a result, he said ‘there will be some impact on start-up funding in the short run, but I do think that space will get filled by a large number of private equity (PE) companies from other countries.’ He also said ‘PE firms from other countries are interested in participating in the start-up ecosystem and I expect this impact to be temporary.’ He added that India received FDI worth $2.34 billion (Rs 14,846 crore) from China between April 2000 and December 2019.

Talking about IBC (Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code) process, CEA said the ecosystem of creative destruction is important for any economy. He noted that IBC process is an evolving process and there is still scope for making it more efficient. He stated that there are some important market failures in creative destruction which need to be focused on to bring in greater efficiency.
