The government plans to tighten investment norms for non-resident Indians (NRI) in companies to ensure that they do not violate foreign direct investment (FDI) sectoral caps or enter areas where such investment is banned. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) has also mooted a proposal to withdraw the special status given to NRIs for investing in sectors such as aviation, housing and real estate.
Many in this country including the corporates are closely watching the IPL controversy and it had led Mr.Shari Tharoor to submit his resignation. There are many interesting issues in the entire episode and I want to highlight few issues as a classic example of complications in dealing with corporate issues.
