 Except few sectors which are under approval route, FDI upto 100% is under automatic route. The FDI equity inflow data is not maintained state wise, but RBI regional office wise. FDI equity inflows recorded for a particular regional office of RBI, may cover more than one state.  Further, a company may report investment transaction in the state where its head office is situated irrespective of the state in which fund has been utilized. Hence, in view of this, it is difficult to find the investment made exclusively for a single state. The details of amount of FDI Equity Inflows from April, 2014 to December, 2015 (RBI’s Regional Office-wise) is as below:

 FDI complements and supplements domestic investment. Domestic companies are benefited through FDI, by way of enhanced access to supplementary capital and state-of-art-technologies; exposure to global managerial practices and opportunities of integration into global markets resulting into increased production, export and employment generation of the country.

This information was given by the Minister of State (Independent Charge) in the Ministry of Commerce & Industry Smt. Nirmala Sitharaman in a written reply in Rajya Sabha today.
