According to me, FDI is good for India It will help to grow nation like a new job opportunity, creation employment for middle-class people.

It will use full for us and our nation.

If the FDI merge with the retail sectors it will more help full for increasing the quality of products.

They will try Maintaining quality at the same rate.

It will help full also controlling inflation And reduced the gap between middle class & poor people.

In my opinion, FDI in retail sector is good for India. FDI has lot of advantage as it will boost up the competition in Indian market. And we all know that in competition, everyone wants to become number 1, so Indian people will make their best efforts in the competition. And moreover, FDI brings employment as it requires the number of employees for their work. With the coming of Walmart, nothing goes closed. So I think it is boon.

Hi guys.

Every coin has two sides. From my point of view its has merits & demerits also. But FDI will move towards more merits rather than demerits. Because of FDI we get more jobs, new technologies, growth, relation with other countries. FDI may affect slightly in the retail sector but not that much of influence. As we know in India we are suffering from unemployment. So FDI will give the solution to this problem somehow.

As far as I consider, FDI is good for any country because it provides the opportunity to familiar with various kind of technology of world.

Yes, it causes many small businessmen, retailer etc would face many difficulties in short span, but beyond that the bright future is waiting for every people of India. It will help in increase employment, foreign trade, growth rate of economy, GDP and also will help to prevent inflation.

As, I view it the whole point of FDI in any sector is to provide an impetus to growth and make it at par with the global level. Retail in India is very robust. It accounts for 10% of GDP in India and 8% employment opportunities. Thus it is not wise to promote foreign giants to such an already flourishing sector and jeopardise the income of retailers. In this particular instance, we should go with the desi way of doing things.

Now a days, FDI in retail sector is being promoted through make in India initiative which I believe will boost local manufacturing. The country needs foreign capital inflow and FDI in retail sector will boost investment, bring in business expertise, and modernise the country's retail sector. This will bring competition in domestic market and thus will lower the cost for consumers and will enhance the product quality.

FDI is as necessary as in our food new varieties are required. Because the competition is must in everybody's life. So until we don't get the chance to prove ourself so there India can't succeed. It is great we get FDI with that we come up with the new technologies so with that our country will get developed and there in the world, we can stand in the good position and be proud of our country by proving ourself.

So talking about the FDI investment in the retail sector implies a positive impact firstly it increases the GDP of the Indian economy, it raises employment opportunities and also its can attract the untapped market which is not booming in the market also we know that AI interface is on the high peak so better AI technologies can help the retail sector to understand there market and their customer needs as well.

Hello friends, FDI means investment of foreign companies in our country and this results to increase the GDP of our country. If foriegn companies will come in our country it decrease unemployment of our country. Due to increase in companies there is a competition among Indian and foriegn companies and this results to be better things will come in market. It will give us a number of choices of things in market.

FDI is a boon for the small companies to become more actively involved in international businesses activities.

And employment increases in host country.

Improved technology in the area of processing, grading, handling and packaging are goods and further development in areas like electronic weighing, billing, barcode scanning, etc.

FDI is good for any country to develop economically and technologically.
