Intel has given India a skip for China by deciding to base its semiconductor manufacturing unit out in the Communist republic, thanks to the UPA government's delay in announcing a policy for the sector. Over the past decade international IT companies have been scrambling to have an India address, displaying their India preference in the process. The truth is, however, that setting up shop in India has never been easy. And many Indians who have lived abroad for years and returned home have found it difficult to do things the Indian way. Too bureaucratic, not transparent and too many bottlenecks -- this has been the constant refrain. Add to that, governmental interference and unaffordable delays in policy-making and the India story can get completely skewed. Is the government making India attractive enough to get investment and retain it?
 
why not ? india nowdays fdi are in top gear it was nearly 35000 crores ,moreover india was invested in foreign countries was also in top gear like tata corus , mittal arcelor are some of the example
 
I agree that setting up business in India in pretty much time consuming, but with the government opening up the doors for Foreign Investment and it's effort, India is pretty much becoming investor friendly. This can be proved with an foreign investment is at all-time high and sustained growth in the economy.
 
There are two aspects to talk here.Is India able to attract new investment? Is India able to retain the current investment?

I think the answer for both questions are YES.Even though India was not able to attract big scale investments but it is slowly marching towards that path.Policies are being tailor-made to suit the needs of industries in the form of tax holidays and reduction in Taxes.Even increase in FDI in some of the sectors are being considered.But the best thing is India is able to retain industries in recent times.So on the retaining path it is progressing fairly.I could say with the policies put in place India will be on the global manufacturing map in the future.

The India is absolutely investor friendly with the large scale of domestic consumption and there is lot of market "at the bottom of the pyramid".

yaa india is investment friendly and it has the advantage of cheap labour and has huge talent pool and it has the edge for investment...
even the policies and guide lines are also good enough to follow...
 
India is certainly heading towards investor friendly....
with liberalization and allowing up FDI in key sectors of the country
and moreover friendly policy of govt. to encourage investments.
 
india mindset is changing....but to grow at the same pace or out pace china, India has to have more flexible rules and more proactive towards investment...
