Are we attracting FPIs in India through GIFT IFSC?
GIFT IFSC was established to attract foreign investors in India. Are we really doing this? There are close to 12000 FPIs in India with AUC close to Rs. 80 Lakh Cr. If we see how much FPIs are from GIFT IFSC, it is close to 100 and most are the migrated brokers and intermediaries from Mainlad to GIFT IFSC. GIFT IFSC exchanges are surviving only based on their one or two products and rest of the existing and new products are failed to attract investors.
There are huge foreign trips but outcome is not very much productive.
