There are positive and negative sides for FDI.
Mainly, FDI increases the economic growth of our country. It also helps in employing those who are unemployed. It will be a great relief to those lakhs of people who are unemployed in India. Another merit of this is that consumers are capable of buying a variety of goods which has good quality.
On the other hand, these destructors our Indian small-scale industries and that led to a crisis of Indian investment in their own country.
But this will be only in concentrated areas. In rural areas, Indian companies are the ones which can invest because FDI is not possible on such rural areas of the country.

Hi friends.
As per my opinion, everything has pros and cons.
So positive impact of FDI:
A) It will surely boost the economy.
B) it will generate the employment but only in MNC;s because the investment will not be done in the unorganized sectors.
C) It will make the India a huge market in terms in every feild.
Cons-.
A) Generate more unemployment because it leads the downfall of unorganized companies.
B) threat to startups because majority investment will be done in established companies.
C) India market will lose its value.
Suggestion:
A) some part of FDI should be in unorganized sector and startups.
As per my opinion, everything has pros and cons.

As it increases the GDP of our country, give more employment opportunities to people of the country, make the market more competitive so the companies of our country also make its performance better, give consumers more choices from all over the world at competitive prices, raise the standard of living of people.

Yes, I think that foreign direct investment is good of India because it will give rise to a competitive environment in the country, also the employment will increase. The local small-scale industries will be affected but they will be inspired to use new technologies and perform better in order to give a tough competition to FDI.

According to me, fdi is advantageous for our country as it provides job opportunities. Create a healthy competition as a result people get more varieties of product at cheaper price. It also helps in increasing foreign reserved which we can use in payment of import goods.

May be or may be not. If we look from customer's and Government's point of view than Yes because a consumer can got a lot many choices and government will earn revenue in terms of taxes.
But a local retailer may not be benefited because it will decrease it's market share.

Hello guys,
FDI means a company or a corporation which is established outside India is investing in Indian market by forming a joint venture company, wholly owned subsidiary company or otherwise.
FDI in retail sector has both advantage and disadvantage.
The advantages are available mostly to the government and consumers.
High sales mean high revenues and accordingly to the government will get high taxes from the foreign company. Consumers can select from a large variety of products and also have the advantage to buy cheap products.
The existing large scale industries of India can cope up with the competition from a foreign company, but our small-scale industries may find it difficult to compete.
