MUMBAI: It turned out Maharashtra had mopped up 45% of the total FDI of ₹2.49 lakh crore attracted by the country in the first six months of the financial year (April to September 2024).
Fadnavis on Friday used his social media handle to announce that Maharashtra had attracted investments of ₹1.13 lakh crore, of a total ₹2.49 lakh crore that flowed into the country in the current fiscal. This was the highest for any state in India.
The chief minister has been claiming credit for attracting the highest FDI to Maharashtra during his government's tenure. He targeted the previous Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) government under Uddhav Thackeray, for its failure to maintain the top position. Maharashtra had slipped to second position for a brief period in 2020-21. Fadnavis, who was deputy chief minister in the Mahayuti government from June 2022 to October 2024, had said, time and again, that the change in government had helped Maharashtra regain its top position in this regard.
