This study examines the economic effects of foreign direct investment (FDI) flows in India by state from 2019 to 2024. The study used data from official sources like India-Briefing, data.gov.in, and DPIIT. The analysis found that about 70% of all FDI inflows into the nation went to the states of Delhi, Gujarat, Karnataka, and Maharashtra. These states' high levels of infrastructure, industrial policies, and investment facilitation are anticipated to draw foreign direct investment. Inflows of FDI have grown quickly. On the other hand, North and Northeast Indian states have seen little FDI inflows. According to the study, GDP, industrial production, and job creation have all benefited from increased FDI. State-by-state disparity is still a significant problem, though. These results indicate that policy changes, the development of industrial clusters, and improved investment promotion systems are necessary for states that receive low levels of foreign direct investment. All things considered, this study offers guidance for future economic policies and paints a realistic picture of India's state-by-state and sector-by-state investment flows.
