It is significant to analyse the motivation, location choices and implications of this trend since empirical newlineresearch has largely addressed OFDI originating from developed countries. newlineThis study analyses the pattern of India s OFDI, its changing contours in terms of host country location, composition across sectors and its implication on exports. The study aims to link motivation of investment newlineto location factors across developed and developing countries. Using OFDI newlinedata from 2001to 2013, the study analyses host country economic factors that are significant in the location of India s OFDI in the ambit of eclectic paradigm. The study empirically tests market seeking, resource seeking and strategic asset seeking nature of India s OFDI adopting a panel data newlinemethodology. newlineThe results of the study show that India s OFDI is motivated by market seeking and resource seeking in both developed and developing countries. Strategic assets are a significant motivation for investment in the newlinedeveloped countries and not in the developing countries.India s OFDI is also positively associated with host country policies like openness. To study the implication of OFDI, the study empirically tests the relation between India s OFDI and exports using time series methodology. The empirical test newlineof the relation between OFDI and exports shows a significant long term positive relation between the two. newlineThe current research is presented in six chapters. Chapter 1 consists of the introduction, objectives, hypotheses and significance of the study. Chapter 2 consists of the literature review. The changing direction and composition by sectors is analysed in chapter 3. Chapter 4 contains the methodology. Chapter 5 presents the results of the study and chapter 6 contains the conclusion and policy implications. newline Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Nair, Leena Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Author's Submission Publisher An entity responsible for making the resource available Christ(Deemed to be University) Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 2017-01-01 Contributor An entity responsible for making contributions to the resource Hans, V Basil Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource Open Access Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource PDF Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource PhD Identifier An unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context <a href="http://hdl.handle.net/10603/165966" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">http://hdl.handle.net/10603/165966</a>
