I think, FDI is not a good idea when you have vast investors in India you have youth power and as we see the most company has CEO from India. As FDI is same as the Britisher rule on us as the east India company has done as they started the business and then they enter in politics then rule over our country for 200 years. The main purpose is we have to stop the brain drain and establish all the thing with Indian investors, Indian government so people do their job not for money but also to serve the Indian nation.

Thankyou.

Hi, FDI is good for India. Many countries would like to invest in India because India has the huge young power and a very skilled people. So they would invest in India. It really helpful to India, as they invested, the people of India would get the employment opportunity, the Indian market value plus economic growth would be developed. And they introduce innovative technics and make technology easy and simple. Of course the investors also earn more apart from that they contribute to our country too. Therefore I wish FDI is really good for India.

Yes, FDI is good for India why because it will boost our economy, as well as the employment opportunities, will increase. When people get employed automatically he is going to buy some goods in the market, so indirectly the govt is collecting tax from the customers. When the govt receive tax properly automatically the GDP will grow. At the same time, the competition will increase among sellers and they produce quality goods with the cheapest price. Mainly the technology will transfer from one country to another with this we can utilize world class infrastructure at the optimum level.

Hai, good evening everyone. Now my topic is FDI. We can say India definitely needs FDI because compared to USA we are back from point of view of economy so we will increase our economy by promoting foreign investors into India by this we can increase our employment opportunities in turn of increase our lifestyles and increasing buy and selling activities. If we achieve all above points we can indirectly get increase Indian currency and there by reduces the poor people in India and give competition to developed countries. So finally I conclude accordingly above discussion if India has adopted this definitely in future India become in one of the developed countries in the world according to my point of view thank you for given this opportunity.

FDI in India is not a good thing. Because we have independence from before 200 years only. We did not utilize our skills and talents after. Indians are more talented than foreigners. First government of India should give full support Indian investors only. Because FDI has come, we are never owners. Every time we are employees only. After several years also we can't invest. We are directly saying to foreign countries that, we are slaves. Come and rule us. So first govt of India create an Indian investor's supportive market. Then only we develop. The nation will be developed.

Hi friends, good afternoon.

The word FDI sound interesting to some people because they are considering few good point about that but we should talk about consequences of FDI too. It will help our country to generate employment at the same time increasing the burden on Indian companies. As we know India youth population is highest in all but in quantity not in quality, so FDI going to help us to train and to make our quantity skill so to make India house of quantity and quality.

Hi guys, first we need to know about FDI. FDI termed as foreign direct investment which means foreign investor invests for other country. Example Investor invests money for Indian companies because they seeing an opportunity for growth due to the rising market and purchasing power of the citizens in lower cost. Yes, we can say that FDI is good for India. If there is FDI, Companies will get profits and more revenues. Employment increases, jobless people will get a job in companies. Technology will also be developed, we also that our country is still developing country, the companies bring with them research opportunities and new technologies from their land which helps India to develop.

FDI invests in India and gives the better opportunities and enhanced technologies to Indian peoples. It's good. But after 2-3 year company decide to increase the value of product and it's service. If it is not done by government then the owner of company decided to block the marketing then we to purchase the product from other country. That's very bad for Indian market, employees, GDP, consumers, Indian economy etc. I think not go through FDI.

India is the country of youth. So block the FDI in country and to decrease unemployees, Indian government to start programs in which there is 50-50 percent partnership between government and peoples. It will better to use skill and ideas to do public and for people beneficial. It will remove the hesitation of people to invest money in market.

Advantage:-

* Wealth of India in its control.

* Wealth of India is in country itself.

* GDP increases.

* Better job opportunity for peoples.

* Decrease unemploys.

* To see India as developed country as US, China, Japan etc.

* Currency will be strong respect to other.

* Better understanding between government and company.

* Reduction in other country products.

As far as I'm concerned, I feel that "like every coin has got two sides, FDI too has got positive and negative sides".

PROS:

1) It will bring changes in technology and hence we will save time and also the quality will increase.

2) IT will also generate employment, which means our country economy is going to increase.

3) It is beneficial for customers as because of competition, price of commodities will reduce.

CONS:

1) Increase in FDI means relaxation in trade barriers, which results in too much of activities like dumping which is not good.

2) As outsourcing will also be practiced in large number, talented employees of our country will be outsourced to other countries, which is a loss for country.
