Employment generation is a very important objective for the country like ours where there exits surplus labour. It is generally held in the theoretical literature on FDI that one of the major benefits of FDI inflows is generation of new employment in the host economy. Since the beginning of the economic reforms programme in 1991, characterized by neoliberal economic policies, GDP in India has registered unprecedented growth. But this economic growth in India is job-less growth since regular employment in the formal or organized sector of the economy has not increased at all with economic growth (Sen and Dasgupta, 2009). Due to non-availability of necessary data in this regard I have make an attempt in this paper to find the impact of FDI inflows in selected organized manufacturing sectors in India. have made use of the quantitative data of employment in the organized manufacturing sector which is available from Annual Surveys of Industries (ASI) as published by the Central Statistics Office (CSO) of Government of India to assess the impact of FDI on employment in the organized manufacturing sector.

economic reforms , forward and backward linkages ,greenfield investment , jobless growth , regular employment and contractual employment , skilled and unskilled labours and panel regression.
