Maharashtra Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis on Friday said that the state received Rs 1.13 lakh crore FDI in just six months in 2024-25, which is almost what it has received annually over the last four years.
In a post on X, the chief minister said the state received Rs 1.13 lakh crore crore in foreign direct investment in the first two quarters of the financial year ending in September 2024.
In 2020-21, the state received Rs 1.19 lakh crore FDI, followed by Rs 1.14 lakh crore in 2021-22, Rs 1.18 lakh crore in 2022-23, and Rs 1.25 lakh crore in 2023-24.
"This means the state received 94.71% of the FDI in six months as to what it received annually on an average in the last four years," Fadnavis wrote in his post.
The chief minister said he, along with Deputy Chief Ministers Eknath Shinde and Ajit Pawar and his cabinet colleagues, would ensure this march continues.
The sharing of FDI figures comes after an aggressive state election campaign late last year, where the opposition parties accused the BJP of diverting investments meant for Maharashtra to other states, particularly Gujarat.
