India-Japan relations: India attracted significant foreign investment in 2025, including a record $9 billion (over Rs 81,250 crore) investment from Japan. According to official data, over $9 billion were invested in India by Japanese megabanks and major businesses via mergers and acquisitions. The figure is the highest in recent years, over $2 billion higher than the $7 billion investment Japanese companies had made in India in 2019. Japan has invested approximately $20 billion in India over the past decade, nearly half of which was invested in 2025. Will Japanese investments increase in India?
