Mangalore Today/DHNS

New Delhi, Jun 26, 2013 : Karnataka has joined 11 other states and union territories that have agreed to allow foreign direct investment (FDI) in multi-brand retail.

"Karnataka has also favoured the policy," Department of Industrial Policy and Promotion (DIPP) Secretary Saurabh Chandra said.

 

FDI -Karnataka agree


There was a change in Karnataka’s stand following the the change of government there after the recent assembly polls. The previous BJP-led government was against the implementation of FDI in multi-brand retail in the state.

Earlier this month, Himachal Pradesh also agreed to allow 51 per cent FDI in multi-brand retail.

Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, Rajasthan and Manipur are among other states that have decided to implement the decision.

However, the government has so far not received any proposal for investment in multi-brand retail.
