Foreign Investment now upto 400 per cent of Net Worth

On a review, it has been decided to restore the limit of Overseas Direct Investments (ODI)/ Financial Commitment (FC) to be undertaken by an Indian Party under the automatic route to 400% of the Net Worth. It has, however, been decided that any financial commitment exceeding USD 1 (one) billion (or its equivalent) in a financial year would require prior approval of the Reserve Bank even within the limit.
