Is FDI in Retail in India good for country
FDI in retail in Inida
I strongly oppose FDI retail in India, because we already lost our country by leaving other countries to enter into our India, again we should not leave our mother country. Indians are having good skill. Indians are worth to set up Indian companies similar to Walmart. Even new technologies can be brought by us people also
FDI is just the mirror of falling Indian trading and administrative system. It is good in present scenario, but could proved ill in long term for the nation.
FDI in retail in Inida
For instance govt has invested 1000 crore of public fund inviting Walmart, what when Walmart fail all the govt investment goes to ashes, instead of govt I will suggest private branded firms would invest money if they are really looking it as a business, and I believe private firms could handle situations in better way as govt always fails.
I support FDI in infrastructure, services and less in retail.
India a huge consumer and thus very attractive place for trading of its loose foreign trading policy. Use nations for bringing technology and stable system with culture in India, but control should be in our hand.
For inviting the retail company like Walmart in India, Indian govt need to invest thousand of crores to let them in India, the govt will only use the public money for such investment. We hardly bother about our takes that we are paying to govt and how govt is misusing this,

Secondly FDI in retail in India is always preferred by the developed countries to increase their productivity not by developing countries, our politicians political bill is limited to get money only and nothing else, so FDI is not good for the time being, India again retain its credibility and stood on his foot, then FDI is good else its just solace to support.

private sector plus the govt. are integrated so fast and largely inhanced there technology.
For inviting the retail company like Walmart in India,India is the now major manufacturing so that we didn’t need such a FDI. Indian govt need to invest thousand of crores to let them in India, the govt will only use the public money for such investment. We hardly bother about our takes that we are paying to govt culture and how govt is misusing this,so that india does not need that enviorment.
fdi is good for industries but not goog midile brocker . fdi is benifitial in infrastructure sector but not for retail . as say HISTORY REPEAT IT SELF . this is the same condition which europeian did with our cuntary . The 51% leading by FDI is sign of supresion on middile broker . govt. is having bond of 70% import in agricultune from other contary n how it will manege . the factory of india will going to be finish if FDI comes. data which is provided by govt. that , 5 to 6 lakh people get employment by FDI but if we see the senerio of mcdownld n there company the total employment will be 40000.

The DELHI rape case!!!!!…..
i totally agree with u ,they should not be given the death punishment …it will be like fulfilling their own dreams.They should be made impotent,……and made to suffer,so that they can realize the pain.
The second option can be …they should be given to public,The public is the bestest judge!!!!!!
it should be left on them, what they want to do with them.
Along with this, we have to teach our children to respect the gender the same way they respect themselves….and the rules and regulations of our country have to be changed,so that culprits must get a heavy punishment for this type of cases……..So that in coming days NO one can dare to even think to do like this!!!!
fdi is foreign direct investment . fdi is come in india in many sector like electricity, software and many other but it dose not come in retail. in retail there is no foriegn investmant. in this all the economoy investment by our country or also all the profit which come from it is also ours . there is no sharing . before 1947 britishers rule on us all the profit which come from it share bteween villager and britishers. that was not equally sharing and people dont get any profit from it. in many year ago before britishers rules on us INDIA was golden bird it name is also populated for this. if we again permint for foreignner then we again face many problems . so fdi in retail is not too great idea for ganing profit.
it is not too good for india because if it is permitted then in retail our economy is depend on foriegn currency . so it is not good.
FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) are useful to spreading the market and make a particular center to buy all the things from one store where all the information will be available.
FDI will invest money on India and it will increase the economy of India.
But, there is few things more : It will bring out the jobs and hire educated persons.
But many people will not be able to buy from it due to some distance or money problem so Government should make it more cheaper and easy to available and affordable to all the customers and consumers.
But, many people who are not educated will not get jobs in such places. But it will increase the economy of India and FDI will buy things from Indian farmers and they will get platform to sell their crop directly to FDI stores.
FDI will be useful for increasing capital and paying taxes to Government.
According to my opinion agriculture subsidy should not be stopped as our agriculture contribute 15% to our GDP and 60% of total employment beside it we know that our economy is agriculture dependent and beside it 95% of farmer comes under small land holding farmer who are not able to do cultivation without subsidies. We know that agriculture input is crucial thing for cultivation of land and our farmer can not afford that much of costly input.
I think instead of stopping agriculture subsidy we should focus on.
Agriculture policy which restrict the produce within the state some state not allow to sell or buying the produce in other state which increase the cost and inflation also along with this.
To impose levied duty on essential commodities,
And monopoly condition in procurement of produce (cotton in Maharastra).
All these factor cause huge cost to farmer and less price for their produce.
Along with these farmer can not afford the costly fertilizer which is important factor to increase yield also and if govt will not provide subsidy than how farmer can produce and fulfill the consumption need of India.
Obstacles for the farmer.
1. Indian farmers have less land and are basically illiterate or less educated.
2. Obstacles to understand and apply the technology.
3. Government Subsidies don’t reach to themselves as the larger part of the subsidies are theft by the middlemen or bought by the rich farmers.
4. Gambling is done during monsoon.
5. The Infrastructure of Storing Crop, like Cold Storage is not available on every area -this is why 30% of Yearly Production of Vegetables in India are rotten.
Government should take appropriate steps to face these challenges.
Providing higher rate of subsidies to the marginal farmers and lower rate to the rich farmers.
Providing appropriate teaching of innovative methods to every farmer.
Growth of Canal and Tank Irrigation.
Low Rate Loans and Crop Insurance Facility should be provided.
The Govt should also inspect the Proper Distribution of Subsidy.
This is how the Government should meet the challenges and ensure the Farm Productivity.
In today’s world of globalization it would be a crime not to let FDI in retail enter in our country . WE SHOULDN’T FORGET THAT THE REFORM OF 1991 WAS ABLE TO SAVE OUR COUNTRY FROM THE NEAR ABOUT BANKRUPTCY AND WE BECAME MORE DEVELOPED . After this not only our country GDP increased but also further development increased our country is the second nation to have the highest purchasing power parity it will not only give a fair chance for the consumer to get the best quality as competition in any sphere is only going to be good for the consumer and this will further cause the rates of consumer retail goods to be sold AT COMPETITIVE PRICE. WHICH WOULD FURTHER BE HELPFUL FOR THE CONSUMER FOR ABOVE MENTIONED REASON AND TO THE INDIAN GOVERNMENT BECAUSE OF THE TAX WHICH THE GOVERNMENT WILL EARN WHICH WOULD FURTHER BE USED FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE COUNTRY.
i am strongly against to the FDI, because we already lost our country by leaving other countries to enter into our India, again we should not leave our mother country. Indians are having good skill. Indians are worth to set up Indian companies similar to Walmart. Even new technologies can be brought by us people also. we are having a hard working people in india.
FDI is an image and is just the mirror of falling Indian trading and administrative system. It is good in present scenario, but could proved ill in long term for the nation.

I am infavour of FDI in infrastructure, services and less in retail.

FDI is always preferred by the developed countries to increase their productivity not by developing countries, our politicians political bill is limited to get money only and nothing else, so FDI is not good for the time being, India again retain its credibility and stood on his foot.
FDI ……I strongly oppose this.Foreign Direct investment is not a boon for India.In fact,it will lead to deteoriation of our Country.By bringing FDI our government is repeating the history of 1947.It is as if we are giving oppourtunity to foreign people to manage our country.
FDI has various drawbacks ,it will harm the small scale shops.Due to this most of the small scale retailers will have to suffer too much. this wallmart will first sell thier goods at low prices in order to attract the customers.all though they will provide us good quality product atr lower price intially. When the time will pass most of the small shops will get closed, and we will have to purchase the products from wallmart.when this condition will arise wallmart will increase the prices which will further lead to inflation and cause threat to our EConomy.
FDI is not at all favorable decision for Indians right now. Today we are lagging our basic requirements . Countries like America providing 10 times higher subsidy to there farmers as compared to india and even in those countries big players like walmart has ruined the local shopkeepers.
Another aspect is that it will ruin the bargaining capabilities of our farmers because of only few buyers and will may lead mass unemployment as number of traders are employeed between the farmers and our markets.
According to my point of view yes FDI is good for investment purpose.It provide good employment and reduce the crises of unemployment.We able to do businesses with other country and also remove the problem of poverty from our country.People must aware about this so they help to develop our economy.It also increase our profit in import and export business.
That sounds good for our system but their need to be check on the technicality of implementation.With the current government scheme of 51% for foreign investment needs to be curtail to somewhat 30%.Rather than focusing on retail chain directly their need to be focus on strategy like E- Choupal by ITC where the benefits are not be restricted to giant chain in addition to it with farmers too.
The Mom and Pop store interst too need to be considered , in order to make them compete with this giants the government should allow the loans to them at lower rate.
I think it is useful for India in terms of financial growth but we very well know the market strategy of FDI i.e they first Enter in market with very lower price so that the competitor can destroyed and after it when no competitor there they hype the price very high. So FDI plays the role of Typical Marketer that change the world of the county and the poor people more poor and not good for our country.
So it is not good in terms of long decision so i oppose to FDI.
I believe that FDI in retail sector serves to be a boon for the INDIAN industry due to the following reasons:
1. It will provide high employment opportunities. The employment provided here will also not require highly skilled labour so a great possibility for people who are not highly educated to excel in the job.
2. It will make possible for the farmers to deal directly with the sellers evicting the requirement of intermediates.
3. The profit margin for the farmers will also increase.
i would say that FDI is good for India. In present time it will increase the amount of opportunities in India.
It will be going to help Indian economy to grow as foreign money will be invested in Indian market. Certainly the comptition will be increased in the industry. It will be benificial for the customers. Quality of the products and the quality of service will be better.
Here i m in favor of FDI system by which we can spend money at the right place. with this approach we have good quality of products. it will also help us to overcome the unemployment that is the big cause in our country. by this we have the good and fruitful products in a feasible amount. so the fdi system is good for our country.
Keeping in mind,the present scenario of Indian economy, FDI can bring a boom in retail sector which will not only raise our economy but also will help in gaining a momentum in current retail sector.FDI is the need of today’s corporate retail sector.
As We know that India Is Still A developing Country We need More and more investers for its market to grow. i am not Completely against the topic. Because if we see the other side it is bringing alot of oppotunities . And yesofcourse it helps to increase india GPI. It should not have an adverse effect on the small scale industries or the small scale investers or the india investers. See If Large scale industries are being benefited they could thing of some plans and idea so that they can benefit the smaall scale industry or the area which is being adversly affect. If it is not affecting the large group but helping india to grow. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in retail sector good for India.
As we know very well india is a vast,democratic and a developing country, for some time foreign investment robustly increases local productivity growth at a time and at a same time demoralize the local companies where government can invest to increase the local productivity and create more employment by itself.
Forect direct investment will grow up or expand as cancer problem. My interpretation is that FDI is not helpfull to country’s growth. It is like danger for country’s growth. Many problem will produse as cons of FDI like retail business man of our country and farmer can be unemployed becaus maximum selling or business will done by this FDI’s( Mall). Nobody will purchase things. Accordind to government’ promises that FDI will provide cheap products to customer but reality will not this instead after stablished FDI THESE price could be costly and cutomer will have no other option to purchase these costly items.
At the end I would llike to say that this fdi should not be come.
as far as this topic concern fdi in retail hols the two sides of a coin iwoud like to clear this by saying that retail market of india oncern a big employement chain of peoplemeans whwn a product is purchase then it have to go througb a long chain means first production come then people who deal to send this raw material we can say o manufacturing unit then product form is deliverd by the people again to mall and all so in retail market lots of people are involve in betweej producer abd consumer…….so by allowing fdi in retail our govt. is compromising the employement of those people…..and also the economy of local ratailer hence fdi in retail will leave lots of people uneployed…………on the the other side it foriegn investment is also very critical for us at this time because of weak economy..it will contribute somewhat actually to our economy………so fdi in reatil is is boon aw well as curse for india.
“DONT LET THE FOREIGNERS ENTER OUR INDIA AGAIN BY FDI FORM” NO FDI IS NOT GOOD FOR INDIA BECAUSE IT WILL LEAD TO THE SNATCHING UP OF JOB AND WORK OF THE RETAIL GROCESRY SHOPS.IT WILL ALSO TAKE UP THE COST OF FOOD PRODUCTS WHICH ARE A FEW RUPEES TO PROVIDE THEM AT LARGE AMOUNT.
WE LIVE AT SMALL WAGES SO MANY PEOPLE ARE NOT CAPABLE OF AFFORDING THE LARGE COST FDI PRODUCTS.BUT IN THE MODERN CITIES IT WILL BE A BENEFIT.BECAUSE RICHER ARE MORE KEEN TOWARDS OF GETTING THE ITEMS PLACED AT ONE PLACE.
That sounds good for our system but their need to be check on the technicality of implementation.With the current government scheme of 51% for foreign investment needs to be curtail to somewhat 30%.Rather than focusing on retail chain directly their need to be focus on strategy like E- Choupal by ITC where the benefits are not be restricted to giant chain in addition to it with farmers too.
The Mom and Pop store interst too need to be considered , in order to make them compete with this giants the government should allow the loans to them at lower rate.
Foreign Direct Investment(FDI) have gone through a vast and elaborated discussion among politicians and in media also. I have a opinion that someone would say is in favor of Congress party and differs from the opinions of many others.
According to my opnion, 51% FDI in retail sector of India is a productive step by the goverment which will not only improve the economic growth of India but also will improve the standard of middle class citizens. As we all know that there are many conditions imposed by the govt. in implementing this law which will ensure that these foreign retail giants do not overpower the indian economy. And also, some are saying that the small shops in the colonies will shut down. I would like to contradict this point by saying that already for many years we have retail companies like Big Bazaar, Reliance Fresh etc. having their shyops all over India and still the small businesses are not affected. Most of these comapnies share the same domain and work process with the foreign comapnies like Walmart & TESCO. Surely, it will also create many jobs for youngsters due to their vast oragnization and they will learn the latest technologies of the retail sector.
So, in my opinion, the 51% FDI in retail is a correct and productiv measure taken by the govt. which will surely boost the indian economy.
