Observing that FDI<\/span> in multi-brand retail sector may not benefit Indian MSMEs, a Parliamentary panel has asked the MSME Ministry to commission a survey to gauge the impact of earlier FDI policies on the sector.<\/p>\n

“The Committee is of the opinion that the FDI for retail may not have beneficial impact on the MSME sector,” Committee on impact of foreign direct investment (FDI) in multi-brand retail on MSME sector said in its report.<\/p>\n

The committee suggested the MSME Ministry to commission a survey to assess the benefits and losses of previous FDI policies on the MSME sector to ascertain if FDI policy so far has created any back-end infrastructure, imparted skills to domestic manpower or upgraded managerial skills.<\/p>\n

Highlighting that the government has not conducted any study on the impact of FDI since 1997, the Committee said the debate in Parliamen<\/span>t<\/a> reflects lack of consensus on the impact of FDI in various emerging economies and it was inaccurate to state that discussions generally indicated support for FDI.<\/p>\n

The central government had permitted 51 per cent FDI in multi-brand retailing in September 2012, leaving its implementation to the states.<\/p>\n

So far, only UK-based Tesco’s proposal to invest in the sector has been approved by the Centre.<\/p>\n

The Committee is chaired by Member of Parliament in the Rajya Sabha K C Tyagi.<\/p>\n\"Facebook\"<\/a>\"twitter\"<\/a>\"reddit\"<\/a>\"pinterest\"<\/a>\"linkedin\"<\/a>\"mail\"<\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
