FDI INFLOWS TO INDIA

Foreign direct investment (FDI)


• Foreign direct investments (FDI) are
investments made by one company into
another located in another country.
• Foreign direct investment refers just
to building new facility, and a lasting
management interest (10 percent or
more of voting stock) in an
enterprise operating in an economy
other than that of the investor. FDI is
the sum of equity capital, long-term
capital, and short-term capital as
shown in the balance of payments.  
Foreign direct investment (FDI)
• FDI usually involves participation in
management, joint-venture, transfer
of technology and expertise.
• Stock of FDI is the net (i.e., outward
FDI minus inward FDI) cumulative
FDI for any given period. Direct
investment excludes investment
through purchase of shares (if that
purchase results in an investor
controlling less than 10% of the
shares of the company).
Foreign direct investment (FDI)
Internationalization challenge
through three main principles:

1. absolute cost advantages,

2. product differentiation advantages

3. economies of scale.
TYPES OF FDI
• Horizontal FDI arises when a firm duplicates its home country-based
activities at the same value chain stage in a host country through FDI.
• Platform FDI Foreign direct investment from a source country into a
destination country for the purpose of exporting to a third country.
• Vertical FDI takes place when a firm through FDI moves upstream or
downstream in different value chains i.e., when firms perform value-
adding activities stage by stage in a vertical fashion in a host country.
METHODS OF FDI
• The foreign direct investor may acquire voting power of an enterprise
in an economy through any of the following methods:
• by incorporating a wholly owned subsidiary or company anywhere
• by acquiring shares in an associated enterprise
• through a merger or an acquisition of an unrelated enterprise
• participating in an equity joint venture with another investor or
enterprise[
Foreign direct investment incentives may take the following forms:
1. low corporate tax and individual income tax rates
2. tax holidays
3. other types of tax concessions
4. preferential tariffs
5. special economic zones
6. EPZ – export processing zones
7. bonded warehouses
8. maquiladoras
9. investment financial subsidies
10. free land or land subsidies
11. relocation & expatriation
12. infrastructure subsidies
13. R&D support
14. energy
15. derogation from regulations (usually for very large projects)
16. Governmental investment promotion agencies (IPAs) use various marketing strategies inspired by the
private sector to try and attract inward FDI, including diaspora marketing.
BENEFITS
• Apart from being a critical driver of economic growth, Foreign Direct
Investment (FDI) has been a major non-debt financial resource for the
economic development of India. Foreign companies invest in India to take
advantage of relatively lower wages, special investment privileges like tax
exemptions, etc. For a country where foreign investment is being made, it
also means achieving technical know-how and generating employment.
• The Indian Government’s favourable policy regime and robust business
environment has ensured that foreign capital keeps flowing into the
country. The Government has taken many initiatives in recent years such
as relaxing FDI norms across sectors such as defence, PSU oil refineries,
telecom, power exchanges, and stock exchanges, among others

Trade (DPIIT), FDI equity inflow in India stood at US$ 521.47 billion

Noida Private Limited with special incentives to set up a mobile and IT display product
manufacturing unit. Under the Central Government's scheme for promotion of
manufacturing electronic components and semiconductors (SPECS), Samsung will also
receive a financial incentive of Rs. 460 crore (US$ 62.61 million). This project will develop a
global export hub in Uttar Pradesh and will help the state attract more foreign direct
investments (FDI).
• In December 2020, changes in the guidelines for the provision of Direct-to-Home (DTH)
services have been approved by the Union Cabinet, enabling 100% FDI in the DTH

Investors
An institution established outside India, which invests in securities
traded on the markets in India
Background

 Started September 14, 1992 with suitable restrictions

 Permitted to invest in all the securities traded on the primary and secondary markets

 Reputed foreign investors, such as Pension Funds etc., were allowed to invest in Indian capital
market.

 Since 1995 the flow of FII is being increasing with new investors coming into the market.
Financial Institutional Investors

 Financial Institutional Investors are organizations which pool large sums of money and invest those sums
in securities, real property and other investment assets.

 They can also include operating companies which decide to invest their profits to some degree in these types of assets.

 Types of typical investors include banks, insurance companies, retirement or pension funds, hedge funds, investment
advisors and mutual funds.

 Foreign Institutional Investors (FIIs), Non-Resident Indians (NRIs), and Persons of Indian Origin (PIOs) are allowed
to invest in the primary and secondary capital markets in India through the portfolio investment scheme (PIS).
Under this scheme, FIIs/NRIs can acquire shares/debentures of Indian companies through the stock exchanges in
India
What is the legal framework governing FII in India

• The Foreign Institutional Investors are regulated by the Securities and


Exchange Board of India (SEBI) through the SEBI (Foreign Institutional
Investors) Regulations, 1995 along with the Reserve Bank of India
through Regulation 5(2) of the Foreign Exchange Management Act
(FEMA), 1999.

• The FIIs have to comply with such special focus regulations and obtain
approval from both the authorities SEBI and RBI to operate which
shall enable them to engage in buying and selling of securities, open
foreign currency, remit, repatriate funds, etc.
ADVANTAGES OF FII
• Enhanced flow of capital
• The growth rate of the country is enhanced as the funds are inflowing which can help
boost the production as well as the rate of employment in the host country.
• A competitive spirit is encouraged
• It promotes a healthy environment for competition and growth of both the parties
which are involved in the transaction that can help strengthen the bond. It can prove
to be beneficial to invest in certain countries because of their economies.
• Improved Business 
• The foreign institutional investors build professionals and they are planted in various
countries for investment purposes which increases and improves corporate
governance when they solve the firm’s operation which helps achieve desired goals.
DISADVANTAGES OF FII
• Shortage of Funds
• In case of a bad economy in any country, the withdrawal of funds by the investors
can cause a sudden outflow from the market which can prove to be a turbulent
hard to handle for the host country.
• Inflation
• The huge inflow of foreign institutional investors funds creates a high demand for
the rupee and thereby pumping a huge amount of money by the RBI into the
market. This creates excess liquidity creating inflation.
• Adverse impact on exports
• Foreign institutional investors inflows leading to an appreciation of the currency,
exports become expensive which ultimately leads to lower demand and hence a
shortfall in the export of goods and reduces competitiveness.

Issues and challenges -There are various challenges
faced in the due process

• The quality of capital needs to improve.


• There are more inflows in the form of FII and not FDI which can help boost the
economy and the state of the country which cannot be achieved by the FIIs.
FDI will bring in resources to the host country and help create a better financial
market standing too.
• Need for Better regulation to monitor and supervise these flows. It is also
pertinent to note that there are no bad types of funds but the focus is to make
money but secondarily the aim is to provide a stronger economy in return.
• RBI does not have enough government bonds left to balance the market. These
interjectory funds will lead to the creation of additional liquidity which will
prove to be inflationary.
• These markets can be really shallow and volatile in nature which can
prove to be bad for investors as the price may have a sharper increase
just because the Influential entities many other companies exit and they
cause manipulation in the market. Due to this high degree of volatility is
caused as there are many companies that suffer wrongful losses due to
influential investing entities.
• RBI will not be able to regulate capital flows and not be able to continue
the exchange rate policy. No country follows three policies that consist
of a capital account policy, a currency policy, and monetary policy. For
example, China has decided that it requires external capital flows for
employment and economic growth and has decided to have a fixed
exchange rate, and almost no monetary policy, Other developed
countries do not engage in all three types of policies like India does
which makes it tough to regulate but RBI steers through.
Critical analysis

• The influencers in the market have a negative impact on the market


as it is to be noted that there are more than 4800 companies listed on
the stock market but BSE Sensex only incorporates 30 which goes out
to show that only influential people have standing in these markets.
• This shows that the Financial market is a bit narrow.
• This shallowness would also mean that the effects of FII activity would
be augmented only if they can influence and start to create a herd-
like mentality to follow the FIIs when making their investment
decisions.
Indian stock markets induce a high degree of
variety of trading prices over a period of time:-
• Due to correction, it can lead to FII pull-out which can cause an immediate
decline in prices.
• An increase in investment by FIIs triggers a sharp price increase, it would
provide additional incentives for FII investment which would increase the
purchases
• Exchange rate Conversion can also prove to be volatile as When, FIIs are
attracted to the market by expectations of a price increase that tend to be
automatically realized, the inflow of foreign capital can result in an
appreciation of the rupee to the dollar ratio. This increases the return
earned in foreign exchange when rupee assets are converted into dollars. As
a result, the investments turn even more attractive which would encourage
an investment that would imply a sharper fall.
• The growing realization of how shallow these markets can be and
speculation is done for choosing the right moment to exit this can also
cause manipulation in the market and a high degree of volatility is
caused as there are many companies that suffer wrongful losses due
to influential investing entities.

CONCLUSION
• Foreign institutional investors(FII) main aim is to propose investment
in India which must register with the SEBI) along with the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI) to function in the market. They are generally
investing in Indian companies in stock and debenture under the rules
and regulations of different companies. FII pull-out can cause serious
problems to the Financial sector of the Country. As it can be seen the
FDI inflow has reduced, there is hope that one day FDI will be equal to
FII by reforming policies and not being fixed to all three policies of the
Exchange rate, Capital Rate Policy, and Current Rate Policy which can
help RBI to regulate and monitor all kinds of Capital inflows.
