Three independent reports unanimously lament this decline, concluding that it spells trouble, particularly for developing countries that rely heavily on foreign investment for enhancing industrial capacity, upgrading infrastructure, modernizing technology, and expanding their renewable energy assets. For India, this global waning of FDI is further complicated by a rising tide of outward investments by Indian industry, shrinking the nation&#8217;s net FDI to a mere fraction of previous levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>Foreign Direct Investment (FDI):<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Understanding the various forms of foreign investment is crucial for comprehending their economic implications.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>What:<\/strong> An investment made by a firm or individual in one country into business interests located in another country, implying a <strong>lasting interest and a degree of control or influence<\/strong> by the investor over the foreign entity.

Global Decline in FDI Flows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Marked Ebbing:<\/strong> FDI flows from one country to another have &#8220;ebbing markedly in 2024&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Three Reports Confirm Decline:<\/strong>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>UNCTAD&#8217;s World Investment Report 2025:<\/strong> States that FDI flows fell <strong>11% in 2024<\/strong>, marking a <strong>&#8220;second straight year of decline,&#8221;<\/strong> with a &#8220;disheartening&#8221; prognosis for 2025 due to &#8220;high investor uncertainty&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>OECD Report:<\/strong> Flows to the G-20\u2019s non-OECD economies (which includes India) <strong>declined by 30% in 2024<\/strong>. China &#8220;witnessed a decline for the third consecutive year&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>World Bank&#8217;s &#8220;Foreign Direct Investment in Retreat&#8221; Report:<\/strong> States that greenfield FDI to emerging and developing economies &#8220;declined <strong>25% during 2024<\/strong>&#8220;. This indicates a &#8220;growing distaste for setting up new manufacturing facilities in these markets&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>2008 GFC as Turning Point:<\/strong> All three reports highlight the <strong>2008 financial crisis as a turning point<\/strong> for global FDI, with flows as a share of global GDP declining from <strong>5% in 2007 to below 1% during both 2023 and 2024<\/strong>, reaching the &#8220;lowest since the start of this century&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Primary Reasons for Decline:<\/strong> The reports attribute the waning FDI to &#8220;heightened trade tensions, policy uncertainty and a breakdown of global value chains due to rising protectionism&#8221;. These factors have &#8220;contributed to a weakening of the global macroeconomic backdrop&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/image-27.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-160487\" style=\"width:771px;height:496px\" width=\"771\" height=\"496\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Net FDI = Gross investments into India &#8211; (Repatriation\/Disinvestment + FDI by India)<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. India&#8217;s FDI Landscape: Mixed Signals and Rising Outflows:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Overall Inflow Rank:<\/strong> The UNCTAD report places India at <strong>15th rank in 2024<\/strong> among FDI recipients, a marginal improvement from 16th in 2023.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Greenfield Activity:<\/strong> Greenfield activity was &#8220;reportedly strong in India (led by semiconductor and metal projects)&#8221;. However, international project finance inflows contracted by <strong>37%<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Collapsing Net FDI:<\/strong> While gross investments into India have &#8220;held up&#8221; (reaching <strong>$81 billion in 2024-25<\/strong>), a &#8220;spike in India Inc&#8217;s foreign investments and overseas businesses cashing out of the country shrank India&#8217;s net FDI to a mere <strong>$0.35 billion last fiscal year<\/strong>&#8220;.\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>This represents a drastic fall from <strong>$10.1 billion in 2023-24<\/strong> and <strong>$35 billion in 2016-17<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Net FDI = Gross investments into India &#8211; (Repatriation\/Disinvestment + FDI by India)<\/strong>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3. The Rise of Outflows from India:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Repatriation\/Disinvestment:<\/strong> This category, where existing FDI investors cash out, has risen sharply. Repatriation\/Disinvestment amounted to <strong>$51.49 billion in 2024-25<\/strong>, a significant increase from <strong>$18.01 billion in 2016-17<\/strong>. Examples include Disney selling Star India to Jio and Advent International selling Bharat Serum to Mankind Pharma.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>FDI by India (Indian Businesses Investing Overseas):<\/strong> This is deemed &#8220;more disconcerting&#8221;. Outflows under this category in 2024 &#8220;jumped <strong>75% over the previous year<\/strong>&#8220;. Compared to 2016-17, these outflows were &#8220;more than four times larger,&#8221; reaching <strong>$29.20 billion in 2024-25<\/strong> from <strong>$6.97 billion in 2016-17<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Push Factors for Outflows (World Bank):<\/strong> The World Bank report identifies &#8220;push factors&#8221; encouraging FDI outflows from source countries: &#8220;weak growth prospects, macroeconomic risks, political instability, rising production costs, and deterioration of the regulatory environment&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>4. Counter-Intuitive Outflows and Policy Mismatch:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The growing volume of outflows seems &#8220;counter-intuitive&#8221; because the Indian government has initiated policies to facilitate FDI inflows (e.g., higher FDI caps in insurance and defence, liberalized rules for construction\/retail) and expedite domestic manufacturing (e.g., PLI scheme).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>India&#8217;s status as a &#8220;low-middle income economy&#8221; and the rupee&#8217;s internationalization being lower than the renminbi&#8217;s make it atypical for such large outward FDI flows.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Imperative for Government:<\/strong> It has become &#8220;imperative for the Indian government to probe the reasons behind India Inc\u2019s reluctance to invest at home, despite all the incentives, low interest rates and generous tax breaks&#8221;.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, the global FDI landscape is facing a significant downturn, primarily driven by trade tensions, policy uncertainty, and shifts in global value chains. While India manages to maintain a decent rank in gross FDI inflows, its net FDI has plummeted due to a sharp rise in both foreign investors cashing out and, more notably, Indian companies increasingly preferring overseas investment destinations. This counter-intuitive trend, despite government incentives for domestic investment, highlights a critical issue that requires urgent investigation to understand why Indian businesses are reluctant to invest at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/?next=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.practicemock.com%2Fs1pricing%2Findex.php%3Fc%3Drbi25&amp;ref=13614\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.practicemock.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/RBI-Grade-B-Most-Scoring-Topics-2025-Check-Weightage-of-All-Subjects.png\" alt=\"RBI Grade B Most Scoring Topics 2025, Check Weightage of All Subjects\" class=\"wp-image-152997\" style=\"width:783px;height:425px\" width=\"783\" height=\"425\"\/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>India is witnessing increasing FDI outflows even as global investments decline.
