Expanding Foreign Investments by India

This year India's investment in US surpassed $ 2 billion. The main reason being the booming Indian economy which has boosted the confidence of Indian companies. So unlike the past, now they are willing to take risks. Many Indian companies have acquired several foreign entities pushing the Indian share in US economy upto $ 2 billion in 2006-07. Out of total hundred, forty eight deals have been made in the IT-ITeS sector by Indian firms. The other acquisitions have been in various sectors like pharmaceuticals, hospitality industry, agro products and automotive industry.
"India Inc is now well-equipped to acquire overseas companies because of the regulatory development that has taken place due to the government's adoption of liberal measures and various monetary relaxations provided by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) with the growth of foreign exchange." Stated the study done by the Federation of Indian Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FICCI) and Ernst & Young.

As a result, Indian companies are opening up units in US and other foreign markets resulting in mass generation of employment and hence giving rise to the reverse outsourcing trend.

115 foreign acquisitions were announced during the first nine month of last year worth USD 7.4 billion i.e. an increase of 700%. USD 15 billion worth outbound Indian deals were accomplished last year and is expected to surpass USD 35 billion by the end of this year. Top five deals were made by Tata Tea, ONGC, Videsh, Tata Coffee, Indian Hotels and HOV Services.

But these investments are mostly made by SMEs and not by huge business conglomerates as is the common misconceptions paving way for emerging Indian multinationals.
