India will allow Chinese
investment in additional sectors through a fast-track approval
mechanism, New Delhi's investment secretary said on Wednesday.
Based on domestic manufacturing needs, the government will
add more categories to the list of sectors where Chinese
investment proposals must be processed within 60 days, Amardeep
Singh Bhatia told reporters.
New Delhi on Tuesday scrapped the blanket requirement for
government approval for companies with up to 10% Chinese
ownership, easing cross-border deal-making that had largely been
frozen since the deadly 2020 Galwan border clash.
Under the revised rules, investments in sectors such as
electronics, capital goods, solar cells and battery components
will be cleared within 60 days, provided Indian residents retain
majority control.
