Through this report, we intend to provide the FDI landscape, regulatory frameworks and current status of FDIs in India. This report will help companies interested in investing in India.

After the decision of going for economic reforms in 1991, the Indian government took many steps to bring in foreign direct investments (FDIs). As time proceeded there were many iterations to the original framework and today the reforms are at their peak.

There were many challenges on this route and there are many more to come. But the good news is the government is working on sorting them. Still, there are some areas an investor should take care of. What are those unfolded as you go.

The scope of the report is limited to analyzing the challenges faced by foreign investors while investing in India as per the prevailing regulatory framework. The report also discusses the impact of the regulatory framework and ease of doing business by foreign companies after the COVID-19 Pandemic.

Statement of Problem
