Question is that in last one decade which sector has attracted the highest FDI inflow into India, so service sector was there before last 10 years and also it's attraction has just increased in last one decade but FDI on telecommunication is more than among any other sector in the last one decade hence answer is telecommunication.

Here need to consider through relative growth in of service sector and telecommunication in terms of FDI.

If it asked for the last decade then telecommunication is the correct choice but if it is asked for the recent time service sector attracts highest FDI. In many reports, I have noticed FDI in the service sector and telecommunication is shown with different values.

According to me;

Service sector is the correct answer.

Reason :1) In the question specified " following sector".

2) We have only 3 sectors and namely primary, secondary and tertiary (service) sector. Therefore telecommunication comes under service sector.

Food processing is the transformation of cooked ingredients, by physical or chemical means into food, or of food into other forms. It a process in which shelf life of fruits and vegetables are increased like jams and jellies, or squash, juices etc.

The service sector has attracted highest (21 per.
Cent) FDI inflows; then Computer software, and hardware (9 per cent) , telecommunication sector (8 percent) and Housing and Real estate (7 per cent) during 2008 to August 2010.

It's not a correct answer because it should be services sector with total percentage of 19% which is far more than Telecommunications (radio paging, cellular mobile, basic telephone services) with total percentage of 7%.

Laxman said:   1 decade ago
In my view telecommunication is a right answer because service sector consists of so many services in which foreign investment is comparitively less. So telecommunication is right answer.

Sandeep said:   9 years ago
According to me the question is wrong.

Telecommunication is one which comes under service sector tertiary sector, then how the answer should be a Telecommunication.

Laukik said:   1 decade ago
Answer is (b) service sector because telecommunication is not under service sector and 19. 99% at this rate growth in last one decade and telecommunication at 7%.
