Foreign direct investment (FDI) into India snapped a three-month fall and
rose 55 per cent in January, an industry ministry official, who declined to
be named, said on Tuesday


FDI inflows between April and January grew 65 per cent to $23.9 billion, he
said. India has an FDI target of over $35 billion in the year to March 31.

Inflows in January rose to $2.74 billion, the official said. In January 2008
FDI inflows stood at $1.77 billion, according to data available on the
ministry's website.

FDI into India fell in October through December from the corresponding
months in the earlier year, the data shows.

The global financial crisis has dented global FDI flows, and the United
Nations in January had said 2009 would see further declines from the 21 per
cent drop in the previous year, hitting developing countries like India.
