New Delhi. After about 9 months, the central government has started approving the Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) proposals of China on a case to case basis. Earlier on the border dispute with China, the government had stopped the proposals. Now, with the Chinese army retreating in the Galwan Valley and decreasing the border tension (Border Tension), FDI has been opened again for China.

According to the news published in the Times of India, FDI Proposals of China have started getting approval for the last few weeks. Although still the government has stopped the proposal of big FDI. Only limited and small matters are being approved. Sources said that the approval of big proposals of FDI from China will be approved after carefully assessing the situation.

The committee consists of officials from Home, Foreign, Commerce and Industry and NITI Aayog. However, this committee is not like the Foreign Investment Promotion Board which deals with all matters. All the FDI proposals of neighboring countries are scrutinized by the concerned ministry and decide on it. A similar system is also adopted in sectors like telecom or insurance. In these, proposals are reviewed before they are accepted or rejected.

Government changed rules after border dispute, China pending proposal of 12000 crores
Earlier, in case of approval from automatic route, companies were not compelled to take approval from the government. But after the boundary dispute, the government changed the rules of FDI. Government approval was made mandatory for the proposals of the neighboring country. It was also made necessary in those sectors where automatic clearance is allowed. Chinese investors were badly affected by this. In recent years, there has been considerable investment from China in the technology and digital space. Due to the changed rules, government approval is also needed to transfer a share. Due to this, FDI proposals of total 12000 crore rupees are pending in the country.
