objective of obtaining a lasting interest in an
enterprise resident in another economy

power, representing the influence by the
investor, is the basic criterion used.

4. FDI IN INDIA
Foreign investment was introduced in 1991
under Foreign Exchange Management Act
(FEMA), driven by then finance
minister Manmohan Singh. As Singh
subsequently became the prime minister, this has
been one of his top political problems, even in the
current times. India disallowed overseas corporate
bodies (OCB) to invest in India. India imposes
cap on equity holding by foreign investors in
various sectors, current FDI limit in aviation
sector is maximum 49% till 2012 BUT...
