EAC-PM Recommends Targeted Support and Public Investment to Boost Private Investment
The Economic Advisory Council to the Prime Minister (EAC-PM) released a working paper analyzing corporate profits and investment in India from FY 2008-09 to FY 2023-24. It found that while corporate profits have recovered post-pandemic, investment growth has been slower, especially among foreign-owned and private Indian firms. The paper recommends increased public investment and targeted support for innovative firms, including enhanced industry-academia collaboration and improved contract enforcement, to stimulate private investment and innovation.
