India's Investment Inflows Steady Amid Corporate Earnings Growth and US Trade Deal

India's gross investment inflows remained steady at 18.5% of GDP in FY25, with a modest 2% dip in foreign direct investment in 2024, outperforming other emerging markets, according to Chief Economic Adviser V. Anantha Nageswaran. Global investors cite India's structural reforms, governance, and technological advances as key factors. Meanwhile, improving corporate earnings and a recent US trade deal have boosted investor confidence, contributing to a rebound in Indian equities despite regional underperformance and relatively low valuations.
