The FDI policy is continuously revised to attract larger volumes of foreign investment to the country. The government has introduced an investor-friendly FDI policy whereby FDI up to 100% under the automatic route is allowed in most sectors\/activities. FDI policy provisions have been gradually liberalized across various sectors in the recent past to make India an attractive investment destination. Some of these sectors include defense, construction, trade, pharmaceuticals, energy exchanges, insurance, superannuation, other financial services, asset reconstruction companies, broadcasting, single brand retail trading, coal mining, digital media, etc.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In this article, we will be concerned about the conditions for FDI in Broadcasting, Print Media &amp; Civil Aviation.<\/span><\/p>\n<table style=\"width: 100%;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"border: 1px solid #555;\"><b>Table of Contents<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#is\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">What is Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)?<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#of\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Advantages of Foreign Direct Investment<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#in\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Routes of FDI in India<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#Limits\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Purpose of Sectoral Limits<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#FDI\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FDI in Broadcasting<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#Print\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FDI in Print Media<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#Civil\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FDI in Civil Aviation<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"#Final\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Final words<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2 id=\"is\"><b>What is Foreign Direct Investment (FDI)?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Foreign direct investment (FDI) is an equity stake in a foreign company or project created by an investor, company, or government from another country. Generally, the term is used to describe a business decision to acquire a substantial stake in a foreign business or to buy it outright to expand operations into a new region. The term is not usually used to describe investment in shares in a foreign company itself. Foreign direct investment is a key element of international economic integration because it creates stable and long-term links between economies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Foreign Direct Investment Policy Regulation is frequently updated by the government with more and more liberalization. The following section lists the sectoral FDI limits in various sectors as per the Consolidated FDI Policy 2020.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"of\"><b>Advantages of Foreign Direct Investment<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">FDI brings many benefits to a country. Some of them are described below.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It brings financial resources for economic development.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It brings new technologies, skills, knowledge, etc.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It enhances job opportunities for people.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It brings a more competitive business environment to the country.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It improves the quality of products and services in industries.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 id=\"in\"><b>Routes of FDI in India<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are three routes for FDI flows into India. They are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">100% FDI permitted through automatic route\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Up to 100%, FDI permitted through government route\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Up to 100%, FDI permitted through automatic + government route<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In an automatic route, the foreign entity does not require prior approval from the government or the RBI.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As part of the government route, the foreign entity should be required to obtain the approval of the government. She should apply through the Foreign Investment Facilitation Portal which facilitates single window clearance. This request is then forwarded to the appropriate ministry or department, which approves or rejects the request in consultation with DPIIT.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"Limits\"><b>Purpose of Sectoral Limits<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To facilitate faster approval of most proposals, the government has also increased the FIPB approval limit from earlier Rs 3,000 crore to Rs 5,000 crore. As per the FIPB policy, it considers foreign investment proposals with inflows of up to Rs 3,000 crore, and those exceeding this limit are referred to the Cabinet Committee on Economic Affairs for consideration.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The main core of these reforms was to facilitate, rationalize, liberalize, and simplify the foreign investment process in the country and bring more and more FDI proposals on the automatic route rather than the government route where the time, money, and energy of the investor are wasted.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 id=\"FDI\"><b>FDI in
