PERSUASION ABOUT INDIA'S WORTH
AMONG INTERNATIONAL INVESTORS
Siddharth Mehta's
Siddharth Mehta of IL&FS (former director) is very
impressed with the growth of the Indian economy in
the field of digitalization. He says, “India's ability to
conceptualize, implement, and produce impact at
scale has been demonstrated to the rest of the world
by the success of financial and payment platforms like
UPI and Rupay. India is possibly the only country in
the world where policymakers and the government are
actually the biggest disruptors”. Adding to his word,
Mehta says, “The PLI is a fantastic tool for ensuring
that India eventually becomes a significant
manufacturing hub and gains from supply chain
"friend-shoring." Even though the short term may be
difficult and unstable, India offers a fantastic
investment opportunity for someone who can look out
five to seven years.”

The administration of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's
government has taken efforts over the past eight years that
have paid off, as seen by the ever-increasing amounts of
FDI influx that have broken records. As a result, India is
quickly becoming a favored place for international
investments.
Due to its strong potential for economic growth and its
talented labor pool, India continues to be a desirable
location for foreign direct investments (FDI). Many
international corporate executives continue to be optimistic
about India's short- and long-term prospects and are
preparing to make new investments as well as extra ones.
Highlighting the factors of being in the market for the long
term, Siddharth Mehta of IL&FS (former director) advises new
founders and promoters of business, “Businesses must
incorporate flexibility and agility into their very nature. And
probably most crucially, we counsel founders and company
owners to reflect carefully on what actually distinguishes their
enterprise and, for startups and early-stage businesses, the
reasons why customers would pay for their good or service.”
