GK and monthly revision
India approves just 1 Chinese FDI proposal worth ₹1 crore in FY26; 13 from Hong Kong
In FY26 (April 2025–March 2026), India approved only 1 Chinese FDI proposal worth ₹1 crore, while 13 proposals from Hong Kong were cleared. Overall, 63 FDI proposals worth ₹10,292.67 crore ($1.18 billion) were approved by DPIIT. This reflects continued stringent scrutiny of investments from China post-2020 border tensions and Press Note 3 (2020), which mandates government approval for FDI from countries sharing land borders with India.
