Just as India Announces New Measures to Liberalize Retail and Aviation, the Canada-India Business Council Hosts Leaders of Indian Policy Reform
(firmenpresse) - TORONTO, ONTARIO -- (Marketwire) -- 09/18/12 -- Last Friday, the Indian government passed a series of reforms to re-establish its economic liberalization agenda and attract new sources of foreign direct investment (FDI).
These include: opening India's multi-brand retail sector to FDI, and increasing equity caps in civil aviation, broadcasting, and power trading exchanges.
After a long wait, foreigners will now be allowed to own 51% of supermarket and department store chains.
Foreign airlines can now buy a 49% stake in Indian private airlines. FDI in all broadcast-carriage services has been raised to 74%, up from 49% previously.
Coinciding with these announcements, the Canada India Business Council (C-IBC) is pleased to be hosting both:
Talk & Lunch on September 18, 2012
Talk & Lunch on September 20, 2012
