New Delhi, Dec 9: Foreign direct investment (FDI) in the country has increased by 24 per cent to USD 60.69 billion under the present government, Parliament was informed today.
The country had attracted USD 48.9 billion FDI during February 2013 to May 2014, Commerce and Industry Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said in a written reply to the Rajya Sabha.
