Foreign ownership of Indian companies is governed by the Foreign Exchange Management (Non-debt Instruments) Rules 2019 (Foreign Investment Regulations). The government has gradually liberalised the foreign investment provisions. The current Foreign Investment Regulations allow 100% foreign investment in most sectors open to private investment in India (Automatic route). However, there are certain areas that require prior government approval before a foreign investment can be made, or where less than 100% foreign ownership is permitted (Government route).
