One of the good reasons of investing in India is because we have a good government. This is a critical time of paradigm shift which is taking place in our country, both in governance and economic reform much of which has happened and much yet to happen. I am very pleased that this book will now tell our friends across the globe and to some of us to look at what is possible, what we have done and where we are going. It is a useful compendium for many people who would like to see an opportunity to come to India”..Investing in India, gives an in-depth view on the Indian investment structure. The book provides valuable information on investments in India, carrying on business, employment laws, capital market regulation, Intellectual Property Rights (IPR), double taxation avoidance treaties, the court system, arbitration laws and even environmental regulations. The book is also available in Japanese and Korean language to benefit international clients..The opening key note address was given by the FML Managing Partner, Som Mandal (pictured)..Speaking to Bar & Bench Som Mandal said, “We at FML would like to think of ourselves as more than just a law firm. Part of our responsibilities as legal professionals of 21st century India is to ensure that we provide true and accurate information, not just to our clients, but also the investors at large. As a much needed guide to the intricacies and labyrinthine laws and procedures for doing business in India, the book serves as a point of first reference to the investor, professional and scholar alike. It has always been our endeavour to do something for the country and we feel that making a book and trying to promote business for India is our way of giving for the country. When we promote these investments, we see foreign investors coming in and as law firms we are likely to gain from that as well”.
