How To Connect With Foreign Investors?

In its most generic definition, Foreign Direct Investment is an investment in one country by an entity based in another country. Merely putting money into the assets of another country does not constitute FDI.  Foreign direct investment is characterized by direct control and lasting interest. The intent to actively participate in the day to day operations of the business is what distinguishes it from foreign portfolio investment. Therefore, it is safe to say that FDI does not only bring in money but also skills, knowledge and technology; elements essential for the holistic development of a country.

The Indian government has over the years taken several measures to ease foreign direct investment policies in order to facilitate more overseas equity inflows into the country. Recently, several reforms in FDI norms were introduced across sectors such as digital media, single brand retail trade, contract manufacturing, and coal mining.
