Foreign direct investment (FDI) brings investment from other countries into India. Regulations require FDI in retail to invest only in large cities, source 30% of materials locally, and invest 10% in infrastructure. FDI benefits India through revenue, job creation, technology transfer, and development of sectors like infrastructure, energy, and more. The limits on FDI by sector range from 26% to 100%. In 2015-16, the largest sources of FDI were services, telecom, and trading. Global FDI projections see continued growth in India through 2016.
