India considers raising FDI approval threshold to Rs 15,000 crore

What happened
The Indian government is considering a proposal to raise the foreign direct investment (FDI) approval threshold from Rs 5,000 crore to Rs 15,000 crore as part of an internal review of its investment rules.
Why it matters
Tripling the threshold would reduce administrative delays for large foreign investments, allowing bigger capital inflows to proceed without requiring higher-level discretionary approvals.
Bigger picture
The potential adjustment reflects India's broader efforts to streamline its regulatory framework and maintain its competitiveness in attracting global capital.
