FDI in India increases by 12% y-o-y to $1.66 billion in July

18 Sep 2013 Evaluate

Foreign direct investment (FDI) into India increased by 12.9 percent on y-o-y basis to $1.66 billion in July from $1.47 billion recorded in the same month of previous fiscal, highest in the previous three months. During April to July period of current fiscal, FDI inflows were up by 20 per cent to $7.05 billion over the same period of previous fiscal.

The sectors that received large inflows during the first four months of FY14 include services ($1.02 billion), pharmaceuticals ($1 billion), automobile industry ($637 million) and construction ($359 million). Country wise, maximum FDI during the period came from Singapore ($2.21 billion), followed by Mauritius ($1.85 billion), the Netherlands ($520 million), Germany ($518 million), and the US ($371 million).   

FDI is considered crucial for economic development of a country and to attract maximum FDI into the country, the government has been liberalizing the foreign investment policy. Recently, the government has relaxed FDI norms in around 12 sectors which include telecom, tea, pension and petroleum and natural gas. Meanwhile, India would require around $1 trillion in the 12th five year plan (2012-2017), to overhaul its infrastructure sector such as ports, airports and highways to boost growth. Further, a rise in FDI will help support the rupee, which recently depreciated to record low of over 68.50 against the US dollar.
