Subsequent to the abolition of the Foreign Investment Promotion Board (FIPB), granting of government approval for foreign investment under the extant FDI Policy and FEMA Regulations was entrusted to the concerned Administrative Ministries/Departments and Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Ministry of Commerce & Industry, was made the nodal Department.The FDI proposals were, thereafter, required to be filed only on Foreign Investment Facilitation Portal (FIF Portal), which is managed by DPIIT.The proposals filed on FIF Portal are forwarded to the concerned Administrative Ministry and are also simultaneously marked to the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) for comments and to the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) for necessary security clearance, wherever required as per the FDI Policy/ FEM Regulations.A Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) for processing of FDI proposals, including documents to be filed, through FIF Portal was framed and laid down by DPIIT on 29th June 2017 with amendment on 09th Jan, 2020.Since then, not only the FDI has increased so has the number of countries bringing in FDI into India.In FY 2014-15, FDI inflow in India stood at mere $45.15 billion, which increased to $60.22 billion in 2016-17 and further to the highest ever annual FDI inflow of $83.57 billion reported during the FY 2021-22 despite COVID-19 pandemic and recent Russia-Ukraine conflict.During FY 2021-22 FDI has been reported from 101 countries, whereas, it was reported from 97 countries during the previous financial year (2020-21).( With inputs from ANI )Disclaimer: This post has been auto-published from an agency feed without any modifications to the text and has not been reviewed by an editor
