<h1>India's FDI Policy: Insurance Cap to Rise from 26% to 49% Under Proposed Amendment, Aligning with SEBI Rules.</h1> India maintains a liberal Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) policy, allowing FDI in most sectors via the automatic route, except for a few restricted or prohibited areas. While there is no plan to increase FDI limits in broadcasting and media, the Insurance Laws (Amendment) Bill, 2008, proposes raising the FDI cap in insurance from 26% to 49%. The government has amended the FDI policy's definition of control to align with SEBI regulations. Efforts to promote investment include the establishment of Invest India, a joint venture to facilitate foreign investment. This information was provided by the Minister of Commerce and Industry in a Lok Sabha reply.
