FDI in Retail in India is a Boon or Bane?

FDI in retail industry means that foreign companies in certain categories can sell products through their own retail shop in the country. At present, foreign direct investment (FDI) in pure retailing is not permitted under Indian law. Government of India has allowed FDI in retail of specific brand of products. As India is one of the developing countries, so FDI must be promoted but must be kept under control as it can affect the economy of the country.

FDI in retails

FDI in INDIA

FDI in my opinion is bad for the country’s economy. As we are in the category of developing country and to develop properly we need to control the country’s economy very carefully. If the % in FDI in retail sector (multi-brand) is increased then the investment in India’s retail market will be from foreign investors and the profits are also drained to the investors. And moreover in INDIA, the retail sector mainly depends upon the agricultural sectors and the producer and if FDI is increased then it is going to affect the agricultural sector of the Country very badly and which will affect the country’s economy. And if the % of FDI is increased to 100% in retail (both single and multi-brand) sector then government will lose the control over this sector completely and then it cannot help in controlling this sector with its rule and regulations as the whole retail sector would be privatized. And this privatization can make a very serious effect on the country’s economy.

And one of the most disadvantage of FDI in retail sector is that as we know that the retail sector is one of the major employment provider and permitting FDI in this sector can displace the unorganized sector and leading to loss of livelihood the most favoring example is if wall mart entry in retail sector is allowed then it will kill the millions of local shops and jobs. The global retailers would exercise monopolistic power to raise prices and monopolistic power to reduce the prices received by the supplier. Hence both the consumer and supplier would lose while the profit margin in such retail change would go up. So from the above points i can say that  FDI in retail sector is not good for India.

Advantages of FDI in Retail in India

  • Benefits to Farmers

  • Lack of Infrastructure

  13. shubhanshu says:

    yeah i totally agree with you that fdi in retail will harm kirana shops and hence indian economy. for a while cheaper products may be available but in a long run stores like walmart will destroy the market and will be monopolistic and then every price for the product has to be paid. this is quite similar to that of done by Britishers in India.

  14. Sneha says:

    FDI is a boon or a bane is right now a matter of concern and it purely depends on the manner it is implemented

  15. Singh Saurabh says:

    FDI is good bt it should be in Limited Sector not to in Agriculture Sector..and also require implementation of some check point in the path of FDI..

  16. Mayank says:

    FDI IN RETAIL IN NOT ONLY EFFECT BUT ALSO AFFECT OUR INDIAN ECONOMY. AFTER THE ARRIVAL OF MULTI NATIONAL COMPANIES IN INDIA, IT HAS EMPLOYEED MANY UNEMPLOYEED PEOPLE, & HELPED THEM FOR THEIR LIVELYWOOD. BUT IN REVERSE, IT IS THE CAUSE OF THE UNEMPLOYEMENT OF MANY DOMESTIC RETAILERS….. MANY DOMESTIC RETAILERS ARE VERY MUCH AFFECTED BY ARRIVAL OF MULTI-NATIONAL COMPANIES IN THE INDIAN MARKET.
    FDI IN RETAIL IS JUST LIKE SCIENCE WHICH GOOD AND BAD BOTH, BECAUSE WHEN FDI COMES IN INDIA THEN IT BROUGHT DIRECTLY FROM THE FARMER AND SELL IN MARKET. SO THIS THING IS GOOD, BUT PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN THE QUALITY OF FARMER COMPONENT IS SO GOOD THEN THE PRICE OF THE VEGETABLE, RICE , WHEAT Etc. IS DECREASE. QUALITY MEANS SHAPE AND SIZE OF VEGETABLE SUCH LIKE TOMATO, POTATO, NOT IN EQUAL SHAPE AND GOOD/PROPER SIZE WHICH IS DANGEROUS FOR FARMER. SO FDI IS NOT GOOD 100% THERE IS DEMERITS ALSO.

  18. Puja Agarwal says:

    FDI is a boon as quality of product will increase…many of the people will get job…product will be cost effective..as seen ninety five countries are under fdi and those countries are progressing continously so according to my point of view fdi is a boon and it should be applicable to india for better progress.

  19. Prashant jain says:

    YES, IT IS BOON FOR OUR COUNTRY THERE IS MANY SCOPES BECAUSE OF THIS,N YOU ALL KNOW BJP ALSO FAVOUR THIS ..WHEN THEY ARE IN GOVT…AND A GREAT THING OF THIS IT IS NOT FORCEFULLY APPLIED ON STATE GOVT. …WHICH STATE GOVT. WANTS FDI IN THEIR STATE ONLY THEY ARE ACCEPTED FDI….

  20. Saurabh Jajoo says:

    FDI…a bane..for sure.
    All the popularising new terms of Wallmart,carrefour and what not in the list,is introduced by FDI system in India.
    A respectable percentage of localites are into this sector..and with the arrival of FDI..the r going to lost on the part of their employement.The economy might get affected very badly.Probbaly it may sound,with full of lucrative offesr for customers but genuinly speaking,it wont be worth it.
    Its involvement to Indian economy as a whole,wont provide affective results..the customers might find it easy and convinient but they might end up poor decision making abilities..since after a point of time..this so called revolution is going to influence all of us,lets say pretty adversly….along with that ,Indain branding will be going dwon..and so will our business ,affectng all the sectors adversly.
    It has a number of negetive impacts,to counterpart the positive ones. Do hav a thought.

  21. Siddhant Tripathi says:

    FDI is certainly a boon in some and bane in major cases!
    If we look back at the span of Indian market towards the commoners, i.e., the general mass, Indian citizens, then we come to know that a major section comprises of middle and lower classes of society which are involved in affecting the market prices.
    If FDI is implemented more than the regular, i.e., 49% to current, then the issue would directly affect the pocket of the common man.
    Precautions and unbiased implementation are the 2 requirements for FDI and the incoming of WALMART, as stated by the economists, would, to certain extent, not be fruitful as it’d then eat up the bread ‘n butter of many.
    Despite it’ll give employment opportunities to many lacs but we can’t ignore the fact that snatching of the private entrepreneurship will also be threatened to a large extent.

  22. Harsha Srivastava says:

    FDI is may be good for other developed nation, but for a developing nation like India..it is not fruitful.

    • Dolly Gupta says:

      In my opinion FDI is good for our country as it has many advantages regarding the country’s development & growth.

  23. akash gupta says:

    IN my opinion FDI would be bane for India because indias economy is reliable more on agriculture and it will be a great loss to farmers though to Indian economy.And moreover in INDIA, the retail sector mainly depends upon the agricultural sectors and the producer and if FDI is increased then it is going to affect the agricultural sector of the Country very badly and which will affect the country’s economy. And if the % of FDI is increased to 100% in retail (both single and multi-brand) sector then government will lose the control over this sector completely and then it cannot help in controlling this sector with its rule and regulations as the whole retail sector would be privatised.

    so in my opinion it should not be be brought to INDIA

  24. ARCHITA GUPTA says:

    if the FDI is used in india ,so the jobs opportunity for younger is increase but the other hand the indian is depend upon the agriculture so that is the increase too much problems for those person whose life is depend upon the agriculture . and government is also in loss because the whole work is done privately so there is no interference of government the prizes is increases and decrease by the private company the government is not do any favor in these prizes so the fdi is bane in india . if the fdi is worked with government so it is may be use full to us .

  25. vinayak mishra says:

    I think fdi in retail should be banned otherwise i will cause lots fo problem not only to shokeepers but aalso for the consumers .Consumer should always pay money the can t get borrow when they required .So it is very hard for consumer to make relation with the retailer .fdi in retail would cuse lots of insecurity in the local shopkeepers mind. So it should be banned soon .

  26. Naina Pandey says:

    FDI will be boon for the India in this foreign companies will directly invest in the Indian business which will help the country in many ways like :

    1. India has a shortage of godown due which every year tone of crops is “WASTAGE” .
    since fdi provide this facilities to store the crop in their godown that by it should be adopted.

    2. broker b/w the consumer and farmer consume crop at low rate and sell it at high rate
    this encourage ” BLACK MONEY”. FDI provide Farmer to sell their produce directly to the investors and they also get better prices for their produce.

    3. It provides jobs not only for educated person but also for poors and farmers.
    and it also reduce the cost of product..

    4. Due to foreign investment foreign currency will flow in India due to this investment GDP will get improve..so it will help to grow the Indian economy
    5. FDI provide the opportunities transfer of skills and technology from overseas and develops the infrastructure of the domestic country.it also allow the country farmer product or service to enter into the global market.

    So in my opinion FDI should be brought, but the sector in which it is to be allowed should be thought well enough.

  27. piyush yadav says:

    FDI in retail is a boon in Indian Economy..If the percentage in FDI in retail sector is increased then the investment in India’s retail market will be from foreign investors and the profits are also drained to the investors..FDI basically comes from there,where the money was invested and slowly get a hike.So FDI have both positive and nagetive sides.this will depend upon that how much liberty will give indian govr. to FDI.

  28. Shivam Tuteja says:

    FDI can prove to be a boon as well as bane. But as per me, FDI rather is a bane for the retails and consumers. This will affect the indian economy as majority of the economy depends on agriculture. FDI will impose a multi brand marketing environment. Though i am strictly against FDI, but it will have an advantage of higher employment options. Majority of the youth will be provided with jobs that will decrease the problem of unemployment.

  29. Ankur Jalwankar says:

    Government of India has allowed FDI in retail of specific brand of products. As India is one of the developing countries, so FDI must be promoted but must be kept under control as it can affect the economy of the country our Govt. is allow to FDI . the FDI(Forigen direct investment) I personally like to say that FDI would be the bane for India because most of the Indian economy depends upon agriculture and if FDI camed than it will greatly hurt the retail sector.in my opinion FDI is not good for our developing country as control of our country economy is greatly based on agriculture and retail field. approximately 70% of our economy is dependent on agriculture. if the % increment in FDI in retail sector then the investment in india’s retail market will be from foreign investors and the profit are also drained to investors and lot of money is out from country which is not good for our country .

  30. Vaibhav Sharma says:

    in india yes there are almost 2 crore people which are directly or indirectly joint with retail sector. in my opinion FDI create strictness on the retail sector by allowing much more quality and price effective products into market. yes it create Bane on some product but Boon on more products which is necessary for the effective quality of the products so by allowing FDI create more Boon which is beneficial for our economy.

  31. Honey Rohira says:

    USA is the first largest country in FDI which gets more profit in this field, & second largest one is CHINA & then our nation i.e INDIA. INDIA is known by golden sparrow & i think to invest in it is more
    efficient.
    Agriculture experts seem divided on the issue of benefits to farmers from government’s decision to allow foreign direct Investment (FDI) in multi brand retail in India.
    Planning Commission Member Abhijit Sen said the benefits of FDI in multi brand retail to the farmers needs to be analysed in the long run
    Consortium of Indian Farmers Associations (CIFA) welcomed the move saying that it would help in raising the income of the farmers.

  32. ankit sapkal says:

    FDI retail has boon to our country as it increase the economic growth of our country.And when country economic growth increase alternatly ourselfs growth also increases .It has also negative effect as the small retail shops are removes from streets an there jobs will be on the sake……..so govt should think of them……
    thank you !!!
    😀 😀

  33. prachi gupta says:

    fdi should be done in controlled manner so new technologies provides better products.by fdi money which we get from foreign market is used to growth in our economy.through fdi our economy is increased and recruitment is also increased.through fdi farmer can deal directly with the company and can get more profit.product quality increases and customer has more option.it not only provides the benefits for educated people but laso for the farmer.

  34. Deepanjali Pahariya says:

    i would support the statement, that FDI should be bane in retail in India because due to these big marts established here…income of small shops will be harassed as more people will be attracted towards these marts as well our economy of country would be go down because from my point of view until and unless common man of country will develop country can not make progress.
    And the most important thing is, as foreign people will enter they again make profits from here and take the economy of India outside as they did 50 years back.

  35. Megha Gupta says:

    foregin investment in retail should be in our country b’ecaus today we are seeing india is on the way of developing so in this way we have require some foreign investenment so that we can go on the way of progress & develop our technology so that we can find acheivements.Foreign investors will bring their products to upgrade the retail sector across the country.FDI in retail also bring down the food prices which is the major cause of inflation.one more important aspect of fdi in retail is that farmers would sell their produce directly to the investors and they also get better prices for their produce.It also generate employment opportunities.but another point of view it should not be in retail b’cos in india there many villages they make the product but they cant develope there product because of lacking of technology ,facility,& tools,& others things which are for development their product.so firstly we should do develop in or country & then we have to do foreign investment in retail.

  36. swaraj verma says:

    I think FDI in retail sector is a boon for foreign industry as it will provide it high employees in retail sector.but indian market this is not welfare i believe in FDI is some profit and losses but goverment are bill passes through it some urban areas and big cities like this trent,walmart,pantaloon retail companies.but i think indian market are not growth in retail sector but i will take some framing that a kind of sector but i think china may be losses are walmart i think 10 years losses in china. but i think some profit and benefit and through out it some passes above FDI are right but i think some cases are right for decision and it will take it decision for indian goverment.

  37. apoorva agarwal says:

    From my opinion FDi is boon for our country economy as-
    > it is increasing job oppurtunities which is very beneficial for our huge population
    >Gdp will get improve
    >very beneficial for agriculture field i.e..for farmers
    >we can get commodities on cheaper price
    So in all aspects it is good for the economy.
    So why don’t we allow it and take denifit of it???

  38. varsha bansal says:

    Hello friends,
    FDI has both positive and negative aspects.
    Positive aspect of FDI is that it will increase the revenue of government, farmers will get more profit than before because companies will buy foods directly from farmers by paying them more money as they normally get and one more advantage is that the chain of supplying will get short.

    But the negative aspects are much severe than positive aspects. The middleman who are running shops will suffer from this because after this most of the people will prefer to buy from the malls. And the country growth is increased mot only by increasing the revenue of country but by individual growth of the country.
    If FDI comes than most of the people wil get out of job and this will also increase the gap between poor and rich people.
    Thus FDI should not be bring in India.
    Thank you.

  39. priyanka bansal says:

    i think foreign direct investment in retail sector is a bane for the economic growth of the country.we all are living in a developing country so why we need a FDI.As we all know that the most of the economy of India is depend on agriculture if FDI is came then it will be harming for retail sector.or directly it is harm the growth of the country.in 1947 the people are not required FDI to develop the country so why at this time we need FDI.

  40. shivani gupta says:

    See every change brings with it some advantages and some disadvantages. Change is the nature of the world. FDI is new in our country. It has also some drawbacks.
    First i would like to tell about merits of FDI. In our country the main problem is unemployment and through FDI, there will be a great job opportunity. And foreign companies will pay a high amount of tax to our government so we can improve our economic power.
    But when foreign companies do start their business, then small retailer will be unemployee and FDI will dominant in our country. our Agriculture will be also in loss.
    so basically one side FDI will give jobs and other side it will snatch jobs from small retailers and farmers.

SO FDI IS NOT GOOD 100% THERE IS DEMERITS ALSO.THAT IT HARM OUR LOCAL SHOPKEPER ..MOST OF THE PEOPLE CAN TAKE THINGS FROM FDI MARKET …SO OUR LOCAL SHOPKEEPER CAN REUIN THERE SHOPS .. ND IT WILL ALSO EFFECT THE INDIAN ECONOMY..

  42. akash gupta says:

    I personally like to say that FDI would be the bane for India because most of the Indian economy depends upon agriculture and if FDI camed than it will greatly hurt the retail sector.
    Countries like china, brazil, bangladesh has successfully adopted FDI but on certain measures,but in India it will not be fair to pass the FDI bill ,earlier their was a 50% share of government if certain foreing company comes and invest in India but due to Passing of FDI they will be the 100% owner of the revenue and they may buy the products from outside india.
    So, it is clearly against india and it is bane for indian economy too.

  43. Gaurav Garg says:

    FDI in India at a limit is good because it provides jobs not only for educated person but also for poors and farmers.Along with because of competition prize of Indian company will decreases. And tax is also submitted by them so its also good for government economy.

  44. Sarabjeet Singh Hira says:

    Foreign Direct Investment was introduced quite early during the govt. of Mr. Narsimarao and Mr. Manmohan Singh as the Finance minister when a large amount of loan was approved by world bank to india. FDI basically comes from there,where the money was invested and slowly get a hike.
    Yes,we need FDI because its basic priciple is to get employment. and to increase the per capita income.
    also, we need to keep one thing in mind is whenever there is an investment in country,it is done in that perticular country’s currency and when it comes to india,whose currency value is lesser. we get a benefit in that transaction.

  45. Nitin Kalani says:

    in my opinion FDI is bad for our developing country economy and to develop properly we need to control the country’s economy very carefully. If the % in FDI in retail sector (multi-brand) is increased then the investment in India’s retail market will be from foreign investors and the profits are also drained to the investors. And moreover in INDIA, the retail sector mainly depends upon the agricultural sectors and the producer and if FDI is increased then it is going to affect the agricultural sector of the Country very badly and which will affect the country’s economy. And if the % of FDI is increased to 100% in retail (both single and multi-brand) sector then government will lose the control over this sector completely and then it cannot help in controlling this sector with its rule and regulations as the whole retail sector would be privatised. And this privatisation can make a very serious effect on the country’s economy. And one of the most disadvantage of FDI in retail sector is that as we know that the retail sector is one of the major employment provider and permitting FDI in this sector can displace the unorganised sector and leading to loss of livelihood the most favouring example is if wall mart entry in retail sector is allowed then it will kill the millions of local shops and jobs. The global retailers would exercise monopolistic power to raise prices and monopolistic power to reduce the prices received by the supplier. Hence both the consumer and supplier would lose while the profit margin in such retail change would go up. So from the above points i can say that FDI in retail sector is not good for India

  46. Nitin Kalani says:

  47. Mridul Jain says:

    i just want to raise some point here…
    1. the biggest retail company Wallmart has 2nd highest cases in various country against it after govt. of USA .
    2. in USA its already declare that to come in India Wallmart has done the lobbing of more then 100 carors .
    3. in India
    Bharti Wallmart buys the raw material on 10% and sale it with 90% profit .
    4. east India company also came in India for business only but what happened we all know…
    5. we already are living happily without FDI then what is the problem.
    6. FDI is being recommended by the most corrupted govt. ever…

    now make the choice yourself.

  48. VISHAL SHARMA says:

    I think FDI is good. because by FDI many persons are recruit for jobs. Whenever this will come in india many big and costly company will reduce their prize due to sell their things. and one of the other goodness is they have to pay tax, so I think it’s good.

  49. ANSHUL SINHA says:

    I agree with all those who say that FDI should be let in the country in a CONTROLLED manner.
    Whereas the FDI policies com with advantages of introducing new technologies at cheaper prices, storage of food products so that they do not waste(since around 30 % of fruits and 5-8 % of grains produced in the country go waste,cheaper prices may lead to increase in consumption), a more organised form of selling products, introduction of foreign products in the country; the policies are still at low in some areas…, Yes , employment will actually decrease in bringing FDI in the country. A guy working at a counter in a shopping mall addreessess far more people than a guy working in a “Simple desi shop”.. Moreover, come to the point of livelihood of farmers, Walmart never guarantees how much it will pay while buying the food products from the farmers.. Buying a litre of organic milk from a big company costs 52 to a customers, while the company pays around Rs 18 only to the farmer..which does not seem to be just enough..
    So in my opinion FDI should be brought, but the sector in which it is to be allowed should be thought well enough.

  50. Shelly Jain says:

    In my opinion FDI in retail is Boon for INDIA.
    Positive point of View:
    Foreign investors will bring their products to upgrade the retail sector across the country.FDI in retail also bring down the food prices which is the major cause of inflation.one more important aspect of fdi in retail is that farmers would sell their produce directly to the investors and they also get better prices for their produce.It also generate employment opportunities.

  51. Gaurav Garg says:

    Govr. has made plans for placing the WALLMART factories in india. FDI ( foreign direct investment ) will create same conditions at the time of East india company.
    Firstly they are showing the benifits for indian people but after some time they will take over the whole market of india.they are giving employment but the will give only 7000 /- to indian worker whereas he can get 12000/- as an indian worker.
    The small kirana stores in india will get closed because FDI will open there store in every city where people will get Raashan in somewhat low price due to less distribution charges.
    there are also some advantages of FDI.the Foreign currency will come in india,which will converted in Rupees.
    So FDI have both positive and nagetive sides.this will depend upon that how much liberty will give indian govr. to FDI.

  52. Akhildadhich says:

    FDI is a new revolution in India. In 1991 the present chief minister Dr. manmohan present the policy to develop the financial position people say fdi is like east India company but that thinking is wrong relaince and many company in India so the don’t think like this . fdi reduce the market prize in every product . this is also give good prize to farmer so the farmer is in good financial position . people think that the middle man is finish in fdi. but that is not true many company already in india but middle man means shop keeper are not finish. this the new step to go forward .

  53. Hitesh Murarka says:

    You know what the there is no law to approve the FDI in India but instead of that government of India has approved the FDI in India. There are some advantages of that but more disadvantages if we take care of the Indian population because the wall marts will purchase the products directly from the farmers or the initial persons who developed that. Due to this many persons between this process have to become unemployed. We know that unemployment is still in a more percentage in India and this will also increase the unemployment in a great amount. So the future of India is so worth in this point of view.
    Our government’s age is so worth if we take care of this topic. Government should have to increase some knowledge to take better decisions so India is growing in every field in a better way.

  54. Dhanraj saini says:

    FDI in india should not be permeated in india because in india we invite FDI then lots of people will become usefulness and and they not have anykind of job.they will first provid cheaper cost of products and after sometime they will increase the products price so it should not be permeated in india.

  55. durgashankar saini says:

    FDI is good and bad for both manner.in a good way the the farmer can deal directly to the companies and get more benefit then the local distribute r .fdi is not good for common retailer because nobody purchase the common things from common retailer shop.fdi good for citizen who live in near the m atrocity because fdi wiil not gonna open the shop in village and mostly find in city.so there is bad for city retailer most of manner.if fdi work to purchase the things from the foreign and launched in our country. fdi now introduced in india and coming soon that rule apply and should be open.

  56. VISHAL JAIN says:

    FDI will be boon for the india in this foreign companies will directly invest in the indian business which will help the country in many ways like it will open many ways of the employement in the country which is the most burning problem of the country, will provide benefit to the farmers who can sell their crop directly to the company which will solve the intermediate problem so that farmers can get high price of their crops.
    Small retailers can live with the large retailer company and can get benefit.

  57. Arpit Khandelwal says:

    it should be banned as this would cut wholesellers and retailers completely who are the single earning member for a whole family. is just like making profit by loosing odds.who are they to decide whom to sacrifice?

  58. YOGESH AGARWAL says:

    fdi retail is good for our country. by fdi benifts for indian agriculture field and farmers get more profit then it is benefit for india. fdi connect small and medium business to the large business and chances given to the new company for our products launch in the market.
    bur sometimes fdi is nor benefit for our country because it just down economy rate and rupees value.
    fdi support for development business and agriculture field.

    i am in favour of fdi in retail. because
    1) it will obviously generate employment. as for the establishment of infrastructure workers will be required.
    2) customer will get product at cheaper prices. due to breaking of middle chain only real prices will be
    the cost of product.
    3) as market will expand competition will increase. due to more and batter companies market will
    good.
    4) due to competition quality of the products will increase.
    5) companies will directly take products from farmers. so farmers will also get real prices of products.
    6) due to foreign investment foreign currency will flow in india.
    7) due to more investment GDP will get improve.

  60. Ronak Garg says:

    In my view FDI is good in long term process and less effective for small term in the development of Indian economy. But one question arises “If it would have been so beneficial then why didn’t government try to impose it earlier?” or they want to fill their pockets through this as scams are over.
    Government say “Due to conflicts, it wasn’t imposed earlier. ” But conflicts are still there and this time they have taken strong steps which is truly appreciating but it could have been taken earlier .

  61. Narendra Chouhan says:

    fdi is gaining more popularity in many nations..it is good in retail sector also because it is developing their economic growth and citizens are gaining chances in employement,bt it has a bad impact also on home services of manufacturing for a nation..attractions towards products of outside country decreases manufacturing of products, so as country’s economy in which fdi is started ..so totally it is good for job seekers and farmers who freuently commit suicide due to unemployement.but it should be kept in control in a specified limit so that it may not be harmful for others..

  62. RICHA SHARMA says:

    FDI…a bane..for sure.
    All the popularising new terms of Wallmart,carrefour and what not in the list,is introduced by FDI system in India.
    A respectable percentage of localites are into this sector..and with the arrival of FDI..the r going to lost on the part of their employement.The economy might get affected very badly.Probbaly it may sound,with full of lucrative offesr for customers but genuinly speaking,it wont be worth it.
    Its involvement to Indian economy as a whole,wont provide affective results..the customers might find it easy and convinient but they might end up poor decision making abilities..since after a point of time..this so called revolution is going to influence all of us,lets say pretty adversly….along with that ,Indain branding will be going dwon..and so will our business ,affectng all the sectors adversly.
    It has a number of negetive impacts,to counterpart the positive ones. Do hav a thought.

  63. maharshi vyas says:

    FDI retail in India is soo good,as it will create more job oppurtunities. As we are developing country,, and many of people are jobless. So they are unable to survive,poority also is there. It will create or will be a medium to earn. Many are arising point that foregin companies will take all profit. But why we are forgetting that we are living in that country where many people can’t take one time meal a day,,then why hell to talk about profit. Firstly look towards those who are surviving in a very critical condition. Many people are dying due to hunger in India, so FDI will create or will be a medium to those jobless people and its soo good in India.

  64. sahil arora says:

    According to me it is a Bane!
    Because in our country the condition of our farmers and domestic sellers are not good, already they are surviving, If the FDI in retail comes then there will be more difficult to them. It will afect the growth.
    And the no. of jobs which the FDI retailer gonna give will not as sufficient as the no. of domestic jobs will gonna increase in our country.

  65. shivraj meen says:

    it should be banned in india coz it make us dependent on other copuntry.we should use our telent for making our product not for other like as FDI.

  66. sahil arora says:

    According to me it is a Bane.
    Because in our country the condition of our farmers and domestic sellers are not good, already they are surviving, If the FDI in retail comes then there will be more difficult to them. It will afect the growth.
    And the no. of jobs which the FDI retailer gonna give will not as sufficient as the no. of domestic jobs will gonna increase in our country.

  67. BHAVNA SHARMA says:

    FDI is a bane for Indian Economy. I dont know why we are still dependent on others? India is not that poor in economy! At one hand we say let the FArmers flourish and supported “swdeshi” on other hand we are debating on FDI whether its a Boon or Bane. Again we are doin the same mistake that our ancestors have done by Welcoming East India Company. If still we dont learn from our mistakes than “god Please Help”.

  68. Peenal Desai says:

    FDI IS BANE..
    small retails shops will be closed…farmer have to grow crop acording to the demand of wallmart,this will surely have negative impact on them..
    small farmers will be affected as wallmart focuses on large farmers..
    CHINA being the most emerging economic power is against fdi then indian whose economy is in depreciated condition due to recent scams should not take this risk..

  69. Shailender Singh says:

    according to my thinking FDI is bane for india, because india is v developing country n the retail market of india is fully depended on the local retailers , a huge part of indian population depends on retailers not on super markets, if FDI comes in india then it will surely effects the local retail market and the unemployment rate will increase, because The FDI ‘s strategy is to give a hard competition to local shops n retailers.

  70. Rahul Saini says:

    in my point of view fdi in retail is a bane,fdi companies are redusing the profit of indian companies and the indian farmer are in loss and they will not capbale to gain products and agreeculture and there are not prudused the product in our nations and retails are in profid and farmer of india will in loss,fdi is very bad effect on the economy of india…..,

  71. indu chhipa says:

    FDI is foreign deposit investment. it is ultimate or first option for indians.so i think it is boon for us. but it is also depends on the case we work that is in investment or deposit….

  72. Shaheen Khan says:

    If we see the today,s inflation rate of India, it is too much high and a common man of India can’t afford it. And Broker’s commission is play a important role for high inflation rate. Thus, if we allow FDI then foreign companies invest more and sell directly our products to our customer. So the there is no dominant role of broker’s and products available at low cost and finally inflation rate will be reduce. The competition among companies will be more and customer get quality product at cheap rate, due to competition Indian companies will also improve our standard at global level.

  73. Goutam Khatri says:

    (FDI) in pure retailing is not permitted under Indian law….. Government of India has allowed FDI in retail of specific brand of products. As India is one of the developing countries, so FDI must be promoted but must be kept under control as it can affect the economy of the country……!!!!

  74. Lucky Joshi says:

    In my side, FDI is good for our country , beacause prices are lesser compare to present time, FDI is multi brand so present time many products prices very high so FDI is good …!! and but one disadvantage in my point of view economic rate of india is decreases..!!

  75. vishnu jangid says:

    fdi is need some field but fdi is benifit for agriculture system and devoleping country and fdi the ecomic system major benifit of this is helpful for our farmer and they get actual price of their crop

  76. Shishupal Nagar says:

    FDI is both good and bad for our country. It is bad for farmers and poor people because all prices of retail shop control in fdi agents so they can increase prices .
    And good for our economy because our country is developing and want to maximum investment .
    So it will be bane.

  77. Pravin Singh Shekhawat says:

    through my opinion FDI in retail industry might be a boon or bane. I can surely say it in two words: “ . Speaking about Wal-Mart, the company is in loss from last 8 years. I don’t feel that entry of Wal-Mart will kill all the market present today because of various reasons such as:

    customer is man part and is aware of what is right and what is wrong for them. However, consumer behaviour can vary from region to region. Theories of perception can influence the decision-making capabilities of any customer. In short, country’s economy is definitely going to affect by introducing FDI in retail sector. Any change can create chaos for sometime in an existing system. However, I completely agree with the author’s point that global retailers will use monopolistic power and will play with the pricing of different products they offer.

    it is bane because it destroy the indian market & create a market which provide most expensive things

  78. Puja Agarwal says:

    FDI is effecting our indian economy…as if the pecentage of fdi increases then it will effect our agricultural sector and indian market very badly… fdi is both good and bad fdi should be implemented in india but only those products sholud be implemented which could not be produced by indian market…as per my point fdi are produced in huge sector then its profit will also be given to foriegn investors and india will suffer from this activity a lot..so to avoid this rpoblen fdi should be implemented in limitation so that it does not effect the indian market….on the other hand fdi can also provide job oppurtunities in indian market so we can say that fdi is both good or curse…the only solution for fdi is that only those product should be implemented in indian market which are worthwhile in indian merket..and should not effect the economy of indian market.

  79. punit arora says:

    FDI in retail is a boon. Bcz, it will put a good effect on Indian economy. Many unemployed persons get recruitment inthese sectors. The Foreign Developement Investment in retail sector will bring forth benefits in terms of advanced employment, organized retail stores, availability of quality products at a better and cheaper price

  80. Umang Pareek says:

    FDI retaol is good for our country . FDI mean foregin direct investment . india is a devlopment country so fdi promote but in under control . fdi gave mass opportunity of jobs . because of fdi in retail develope oue growth rate . fdi is good for country but its also feed effcts to the the economy.
    fdi provide more products for people . fdi is not good 100% ther is demerits also .
    thank you

  81. Hemant Aseri says:

    Fdi is good for country. india is a development coutry so fdi helps to promoted but in under control. fdi gave mass opportunity of job. reason of fdi indian market get growth and growth rate of indian market incresed. fdi provide more product for people and fdi gave indian market a new height of work…

  82. navin kumar says:

    according to my point FDI is the best for the rich man because they are [partership with the forigen investres and get a more profit but middle class and lower class people are not do the our businness
    so our economy condition will goes down.so FDI is not helpful our country.

  83. Lokesh Panwar says:

    Hello.. ofcouse it will be bane how can it will be boon..
    if it will be bone then tha economy rate will be decress, we are also a grothing INDIAN, we are not develop indian. we need to a big industry and god economy rate for growthin indian.
    FDI in my opinion is bad for the country’s economy,moreover in INDIA, the retail sector mainly depends upon the agricultural sectors and the producer and if FDI is increased then it is going to affect the agricultural sector of the Country very badly and which will affect the country’s economy.this privatisation can make a very serious effect on the country’s economy. And one of the most disadvantage of FDI in retail sector is that as we know that the retail sector is one of the major employment provider and permitting FDI in this sector can displace the unorganised sector and leading to loss of livelihood the most favouring example is if wall mart entry in retail sector is allowed then it will kill the millions of local shops and jobs.

  84. komal sharma says:

    Fdi is a foreign direct investment.it is a terminology which has been making for foreign countries by which they can direct invest their products in our country and they can sell their product in retail price.fdi is beneficial for our country because through this farmers can gain more profit on their products and if they will gain more profit from their farming then it is also provide them a good farming method and farming in a large quantity..and so it will be beneficial for us in a way that we can buy our necessary food and other products in minimum cost and so our economy will also be maintained.

  85. Vishakha Bansal says:

    Foreign Direct investment in retail basically mean ‘ allow foreign companies to do direct business in India’. Till now this is banned in India. There are two terms related to a country i.e developed or developing. We are still in developing stage. Today ‘we have more hands but less work to do’ so FDI in retail is ofcourse a boon for our country as per current situation. This will produce more jobs in India and give more chance of employment which is one of the our basic need today, but FDI should be applicable with some conditions like it should be applied for five year first in some specific sectors and after five year if we still need this then duration can be increased, so that this would not harm our economy and our own business is enhanced.

  86. Vishakha Bansal says:

  87. sonali sharma says:

    FDI is a boon if it is allowed under certain limits, after that limits it will lead to decrease economy of our country and turn out to be a bane. Foreign countries sell there product directly here, which transfers our money to there country. Local business get affected due to FDI, which turn out to be a major problem for the suppliers and dealers of our country. So FDI should be under control of government, increasing it to 100% would take it completely out of the control.

  88. Arun Prajapati says:

    Foreign direct investment can take on many forms and so sometimes the term is used to refer to different kinds of investment activity. Commonly foreign direct investment includes “mergers and acquisitions, building new facilities, reinvesting profits earned from overseas operations and intracompany loans. However, foreign direct investment is often used to refer to just building new facilities or greenfield investment, creating figures that although both labeled FDI, can’t be side by side compared.

  89. Shashank Khatri says:

    I think fdi in retail is a bane for indian point of view because this will hide the indian technologies,if we use fdi then we wasted our country income in tax and what the result is selling them in big prices.All the country have the ability to fulfill all the user demand.So fdi in retail is not a proper option but if the country make a profit on that then they should me select that path.The case is not that fdi is a boon or a bane,but the condition is that,Is the country make a profit or not,but our country make a profit on that then the opposition country is also make a profit,i.e.why they have done the partnership.

  90. manish jangir says:

    I am in support of this post. FDI is not a solution to ijncrease the GDP rate of INDIA. Every one knows that the current GDP rate of INDIA is 5.5% and all our country depends upon agriculture…
    If the FDI is come in INDIA that time the all profit would be taken by the foreign investers and indian people get poor and poor and the India’s percentage of BPL also increases due to poorness. When FDI is come in INDIA that time all the small shops are get close.
    FDI increases the poorness in INDIA……

  91. Vinay Agrawal says:

    At some extent there is a need of the FDI in the Indian market because this will help the Indian economy and the globalization but if it is allowed for the 100% investment than our economy would be devastated. The FDI will be beneficial to the farmers who can direct sell their produced goods to these markets instead of other people. To be a developed country there is a need of such foreign investment in the country. But extent of it may be harmful. Giving full control to these type of investment will cause a harm to the new markets in the country.

  92. Vibhav Somani says:

    FDI is boon because it provide more oppotunities in India.FDI provides more jobs in India. More jobs means less unemployment. Less unemployment means moving fast towards developed country.India is developing country so FDI must be promoted. But anything in excess is bad so it must be promoted in limit.

  93. Manju Gajraj says:

    fdi is good for country but its also fed effects to the nation economey .as we are in developing country and to maintian our development its neccesary that maintain our economey………………….
    we can not say its good for our country ………..custmer is king today they know very well our good or bad .and we see last 8years the well market are in down stage or loss in business .so i think the retail is not good for our nation .theory of pretupation influience is day by day we know then its bad for our nation

  94. Vaibhav Rawat says:

    fdi in retail is a boon in our country in my opinion because it takes the lot of jobs with us and we get many oppurtunities in that..many job offers are rolling back and give the chances to our peoples which might became a beneficial for our country..by introducing such marts in our country we can definitely raise our economic part too..because when these products are being sold in the country then we get the profit by the revenue system and this will result in the deduction of the cost prices of many things if posible..so the fdi in nretail sector will be a boon in our country as soon as will get setup in the country..

  95. Vikas Lalwani says:

    We can promote FDI to some extent and keeping it under control because it will bring some jobs india upto some mark. It will affect our agricultural sector so we should control it. So,there is a diplomatic view in this FDI case,because they will create more jobs we can afford FDI upto some extent but not completely,as producer and agricultural sector will be affected hard and india is mainly dependent on them.Further,indian farmers or those who are illitrarte would not be able to complete his need of food and shelter.
    So keeping in mind both the things FDI should be introduced upto some extent.

  96. Saurabh Jajoo says:

    at an angle fdi in retail is good for india but the condition is that it should be in coltrol. by giving the chance to foreign investers the profit of medium level industries will decrease but the cost of the things for a normal person will also become cheaper. this is the problem for industries who are working at the medium level. so fdi should be allowed but only in certain things and only at a defined level. so the industries of the developing india and the normal people of india both will be in profit. Another thing to be remember that the cost of everything is increasing at a very high level so by allowing wallmart and such kind of investers we can make the cost moderate.

  97. Surja Ram Bhagat says:

    FDI should not enter in INDIA. we know, about 250 years ago england also came for business but what they did. They have taken all from india like money, unity etc.
    But now i know FDI not means to take the seat again. They will create unemployement in india because they refer people from their country and also machinery. As well as they also make the things cheaper so the value of indian item will decrease.
    The farmers of india will also be affected. They came with such products which are cheaper in their countries.
    FDI affects unity, we all know in parliament some parties are with FDI and others are against it.
    FDI is bane.

  98. Nitin K Pareta says:

    I CANT UNDERSTAND WHY SO NOISE IS CREATING ON FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT(FDI).AT MY SIDE IT IS GOOD FOR CONSUMERS I CAN PROVE BY FOLLOWING STATEMENTS-
    1.INDIA IS THE 2ND LARGEST COUNTRY IN THE PRODUCTION OF FRUITS BUT DUE TO LESS STORING CAPACITY MORE THEN 50% GO TO WASTE .
    FDI WILL PROVIDE THIS SO IT WILL REDUCES THE PRIZES AUTOMATICALLY.

    2.THE SECOND THING IS FROM THE SIDE OF SELLERS ,IS THE HALDIRAM OR BIKANO IS CLOSE AFTER THE ENTRTY OF MCDONALDS?

  99. palash kothari says:

    i think fdi is bane in the country like india.because there are several peoples who have the small shops and their whole family is depending upon them.and indian democracy gives the complete freedom to all peoples.if the fdi is come in india then the small retailers,shopkeepers and small merchant they all lose their way of living because fdi gives all items on very low price and indian government should understand about all those peoples which are dependent on their small shops and their whole family are dependent upon them.

  100. Kamal Kaswan says:

    FDI is surely a boom for country productivity as it help farmer also as due to it folllowing will increases -competition increases ,product quality increases,customer had wide variety of choises, and government can collect a great revenue from forgein investor.

  101. Santosh Singh says:

    fdi is good for county but its also fed effects to the nation economy.As we are in developing country and to maintain our development its necessary that maintain our economy.

  102. viyet roy says:

    FDI ,let see it is good or bad for us(indian people),time tell us 🙂

  103. Arpit Taran says:

    FDI in Retail is a Boon or Bane?

    FDI in retail industry might be a boon or bane. I can surely say it in two words: “ It depends”. Speaking about Wal-Mart, the company is in loss from last 8 years. I don’t feel that entry of Wal-Mart will kill all the market present today because of various reasons such as:

    Nowadays, customer is king and is aware of what is right and what is wrong for them. However, consumer behaviour can vary from region to region. Theories of perception can influence the decision-making capabilities of any customer. In short, country’s economy is definitely going to affect by introducing FDI in retail sector. This change will add colours to the economy or not is the big question here. Any change can create chaos for sometime in an existing system. However, I completely agree with the author’s point that global retailers will use monopolistic power and will play with the pricing of different products they offer.

  104. Vipin Sahu says:

    In my opinion FDI in retail has somewhat good aspects but as we know every coin has two faces therefore it also have bad aspects as well. good aspects are:
    -Foreign investors will bring their produts to upgrade the retial sector acroos the country.
    -FDI in retail also bring down the food prices which is the
    major cause of inflation.
    -one more important aspect of fdi in retail is that farmers would sell their produce directly to the investors and they also get better prices for thier produce.
    -it also generate employement oppurtunities.
    Bad aspects:
    -FDI in retail has very bad impact on small shopkeeper as foreign investors work on small margins.

  105. Arun Kumar says:

    FDI IN RETAIL IS JUST LIKE SCIENCE WHICH GOOD AND BAD BOTH, BECAUSE WHEN FDI COMES IN INDIA THEN IT BROUGHT DIRECTLY FROM THE FARMER AND SELL IN MARKET. SO THIS THING IS GOOD, BUT PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN THE QUALITY OF FARMER COMPONENT IS SO GOOD THEN THE PRICE OF THE VEGETABLE, RICE , WHEAT Etc. IS DECREASE. QUALITY MEANS SHAPE AND SIZE OF VEGETABLE SUCH LIKE TOMATO, POTATO, NOT IN EQUAL SHAPE AND GOOD/PROPER SIZE WHICH IS DANGEROUS FOR FARMER. SO FDI IS NOT GOOD 100% THERE IS DEMERITS ALSO.

  106. Nitin Dwivedi says:

    In my opinion the FDI is really a bane for our country because after this the local business of india market going down. the mahatma gandhi also said that if we want to improov the value of indian currency we should use all the india made items,and after the fdi the foreign countries direct invest in indian market and the price of branded foreign items going low that effect on indian market and most of the person start the use of foreign brands.
    so, according to me the fdi is not a proper solution for the problem of recesion. Thank you

  107. SACHIN LAVANIYA says:

    FDI in india is not suitable b,coz of india is developing country where most of people depand on agriculture so many cant effort this FDI. LATEST EXAMPLE Is WALMART which come in india indian retail company BHARTI

  108. ajanta priyadarshini sahani says:

    FDI in my opinion is bad for the country’s economy. As we are in the category of developing country and to develop properly we need to control the country’s economy very carefully

  109. asish kumar panda says:

    FDI WILL PUT A GOOD EFFECT ON INDIAN ECONOMY.NOW GOVERNMENT HAS ALLOWED 51% FDI IN RETAIL SECTOR.OUR GOVERNMENT HAS PROJECTING FOR FUTURE BY FDI FOR FARMERS.IT CREAT JOBS FOR THOSE FARMER WHO ARE COMMETTING SUICIDESFOR NOT HAVING RIGHT GAIN FORM THEIR EARNED CROPS.

  110. amit kumar behera says:

    how would u say that it reduces the profit of indian entrepreneur

  111. Saroj Pahi says:

    FDI IN RETAIL IN NOT ONLY EFFECT BUT ALSO AFFECT OUR INDIAN ECONOMY. AFTER THE ARRIVAL OF MULTI NATIONAL COMPANIES IN INDIA, IT HAS EMPLOYEED MANY UNEMPLOYEED PEOPLE, & HELPED THEM FOR THEIR LIVELYWOOD. BUT IN REVERSE, IT IS THE CAUSE OF THE UNEMPLOYEMENT OF MANY DOMESTIC RETAILERS….. MANY DOMESTIC RETAILERS ARE VERY MUCH AFFECTED BY ARRIVAL OF MULTI-NATIONAL COMPANIES IN THE INDIAN MARKET..

  112. SAGAR TRIPATHY says:

    AND ANOTHER THING IF WE ARE TALKING ABOUT THE PRODUCT THEN MOST OF THE RAW PRODUCTS ARE EXPORTED TO OTHER COUNTRIES FROM INDIA MAINLY…AND WE ARE THE FOOLS WE ARE GIVING PERMISSION TO TAKE THEM AWAY..WHY CANT WE MAKE USE OF IT SUITABLY ….SO AT LAST WE ARE IN LOSS BY TAKING D READYMADE PRODUCT FROM THEM

  113. RAJIB LOCHAN PANIGRAHI says:

    FDI retails is a boon because it helps commerce &economy of a country.he Retail sector of India is vast, and has huge potential for growth and development, as the majority of its constituents are un-organized. The retail sector of India handles about $250 billion every year, and is expected by veteran economists to reach to $660 billion by the year 2015. The business in the organized retail sector of India, is to grow most and faster at the rate of 15-20% every year, and can reach the level of $100 billion by the year 2015. Here, it is noteworthy that the retail sector of India contributes about 15% to the national GDP, and employs a massive workforce of it, after the agriculture sector. India’s growing economy with a rate of approximately 8% per year, makes its retail sector highly fertile and profitable to the foreign investors of all sectors of commerce and economy, of all over the world. Global Jurix, a full-fledged legal organization prominent worldwide, provides all-encompassing services and advice for most lucrative and secured fdi in indian retail sector.

    FDI in Retail India

    AT Kearney (a globally famous international management consultancy) recognized India as the second most alluring and thriving retail destination of the world, among other thirty growing and emerging markets. At present, other profitable retail destinations of the world are China and Dubai of Asia. Diverse foreign direct investment in indian retail is greatly cherished by most of the major and leading retailers of USA and European countries, including Walmart (USA), Tesco (UK), Metro (Germany), and Carrefour (France). Liberalization of trade policy and loosening of barriers and restrictions to the foreign investment in the retail sector of India, have collectively made the fdi in retail sector quite easy and smooth. Our services are easily and economically available for the following ways of fdi in indian retail.

  114. Niroj Pahi says:

    FDI in retail is a boon. Bcz, it will put a good effect on Indian economy. Many unemployed persons get recruitment inthese sectors. The Foreign Developement Investment in retail sector will bring forth benefits in terms of advanced employment, organized retail stores, availability of quality products at a better and cheaper price. It enables a countrys product or service to enter into the global market. FDI enables transfer of skills and technology from overseas and develops the infrastructure of the domestic country.

    • SAGAR TRIPATHY says:

      @NIROJ PAHI…..HOW IT CAN BE BOON….IF THE PEOPLE OF INDIA CAN CHANGE THE ECONOMY STANDARD THEN WE HAVE NO NEED TO DO SO…NOW THE THING IS THAT WE HAVE TO WORK AND ADMIT FOR OUR RIGHT….

  115. sagar tripathy says:

    IT MUST NOT BE BANE BECAUSE IF IT WILL BE BANE THEN AS PER THE PRESENT SITUATION OF OUR COUNTRY THE REDULT OF BANE WILL MAINLY AFFECT THE FARMER SITE OF OUR COUNTRY WHICH WILL MAINLY PUT A WORST IMPACT TO US..

  116. rajeev ranjan says:

    FDI has really changed the scenario for the job seekers but alongwith thatwe really need to find out a path for the uneducated fellow members too. due to poor government feedback n works lots of people remain uneducated n find quite hard to get a a working place.. so we really need to work on them too. 🙂

  117. Arpita Sardar says:

    I think FDI is necessery in some field but not in evry where…

  118. Satyendra Kumar Jha says:

    FDI in retail is good for some people which are educated and farmer gets good prices for his works

    • Mitali Panda says:

      who can say that they are going to get benefits ……….can’t say until they suffer or get benefit but to get the result we have to wait long and there would be no time for change at that time

  119. Jaita Saha says:

    it is benifitial in some ways..though FDI in reretail is not all good for India

  120. Mitali Panda says:

    now the government has allowed 51% of FDI in retail sector, and the most critical moment was that the BSP leader who were opposing the motion voted in favor of it with an argument over days what made them to change their decision overnight , who were against the govt. became with them in just 10 to 12 hrs. of time. and many of them on that very final day of voting didn’t attend the parliament. but finally it was decided by the govt. that FDI in Multi- brand must be enhanced to 51% now this will be a great concern for the near future economic condition. it will be giving them a space of monopolistic marketing.

  121. Mitali Panda says:

    FDI is good to some extent as it increases the scope for new job oppertunities in india..

    • Mitali Panda says:

      And i want to add to the above that it creates jobs to some extent but it will make the uneducated people difficult to earn their livelihood. so is it good to have 1 person with high salary or to have 5 person having average salary.

  122. Bharti Pandey says:

    FDI is particularly BANE for India in the long run.Government is projecting it as a benefit to future but it is the strategy of these enterpreneurs to start with less prices first and when there is a monoply which usually exist after they rule over the market they suddenly increase prices and people are forced to buy from them……

      i completely agree with bharati pandey, they usually show us the better face of coin but we must know that there’s another side which can be rather much worst. FDI % is increased to 100% then the company having FDI would make the market monopoly . for ex- the shoes that we buy generally (i.e. reebok or adidas) comes handy with starting range of rs-1099 onwards if FDI is increased for 100% in these multi-brand sector in long run they may increase the price to 2000 or even more but as a brand we have to buy them so FDI is BANE for our economy in long run.

    mr sandeep verma how would u say that it reduces the profit of indian entrepreneur

    • Sandeep Verma says:

      dear chirayu baheti, i would like to give my opinion on this if you put some money in a business, then the profit generated is yours in the same way if money is invested by the outsiders then the profit will of course be drained out of the country and their investment in our country will be their assets which would be in their company name (i.e in their name) so in short if FDI is permitted at higher rates then it’s going to effect the country economy in greater way.

    mr sandeep sharma how would u say that it reduces the profit of indian entrepreneur

  125. Sandeep Verma says:

    dear Chiray Baheti, FDI has foreign investment as investment is from outsider so it drains the profit to them , so in short it reduces the money supply in India.

    we can say FDI is good for some people and bad for some people…
    FDI can control retail sector it is good for common people.In India we are having many number of small scale entrepreneurs they may face the problem due to this system.

  127. astha vaish says:

    (FDI) in pure retailing is not permitted under Indian law….. Government of India has allowed FDI in retail of specific brand of products. As India is one of the developing countries, so FDI must be promoted but must be kept under control as it can affect the economy of the country……

  128. Chiray Baheti says:

    FDI in retail is a boon in Indian Economy. FDI offers great oppertunity to the people of India and increses the Indian economy. By FDI money which we get from foreign market is used to increase the global market. Prices of foreign trades are lesser as compared to present time. The quality things become cheaper in future if FDI retail in marlket comes. Wallmart which is an joint venture with Bharti increases the market. So it is a boon for Indian Market

  129. Sandeep Verma says:

    yes FDI must be controlled in retail sector we have 49% FDI allowed but now government is seeking for 100% FDI in retail sector ? and now if it is approved by government then the situation of our economy will be very bad.As govt. couldn’t control the price rise then afterr allowing 100% FDI how will it control the sector as 100% rule will be of the investor and there would be no play field for Government.

  130. huma fatima says:

    It can be fruitful if controlled else not..and we have to make sure that we are trusting the right company to flourish in the country..and the brand like “Amul” which has been working so far should be allowed to sustain before other brands are encouraged to build their stocks in the country…..

    • Sandeep Verma says:

      miss fatima , yes FDI must be controlled in retail sector we have 49% FDI allowed but now government is seeking for 100% FDI in retail sector ? and now if it is approved by government then the situation of our economy will be very bad.As govt. couldn’t control the price rise then afterr allowing 100% FDI how will it control the sector as 100% rule will be of the investor and there would be no play field for Government.
