According to the Ministry of Commerce and Industry, India has emerged as a leading destination for global capital, driven by its investor-friendly Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy.
India's FDI trajectory showcases a robust growth pattern, with cumulative inflows of USD 991 billion recorded between 2000 and 2024.
Impressively, 67 per cent of this amount (USD 667 billion) was received in the last decade alone (2014-2024).
The manufacturing sector has particularly benefited, witnessing a 69 per cent surge in FDI equity inflows, which rose from USD 98 billion during 2004-2014 to USD 165 billion in 2014-2024.
In FY 2024-25, FDI inflows continued their upward momentum, reaching USD 22.5 billion in the first quarter, a 26 per cent increase compared to USD 17.8 billion during the same period in FY 2023-24.
