Best answer

The government of India is trying to attract more foreign investment in the following ways:

Government has adopted the policy of liberalisation and lifted the trade barriers to allow foreign investment.
In recent years, industrial zones called Special Economic Zones are being set up. These areas have world class facilities such as electricity, water, transport, education and recreational.
The companies setting up production units in Special Economic Zones are exempted from various taxes and duties.
The government also allowed flexibility in labour laws. The workers in the organised sector are protected by the government laws. The companies in Special Economic Zones instead could ignore many of the laws and engage workers flexibly for shorter periods, when there is a pressure of work.
