In dark clouds of economic slowdown, silver lining emerged for Rajasthan as the western desert state attracted highest investment plans during OctoberDecember 2008-09 by corporate India, bringing a considerable shift in its ranking order, among the 21 India states.

Rajasthan is turning to be one of the most favourable investment destinations, carving top position in the third quarter of the financial year 2008-09 (OctoberDecember), witnessing a major jump from 13th position in the same period of the financial year 2007-08, according to a paper brought out by ASSOCHAM.

Time period The data analyzed for the report include the time period January -December 2007-08 and 2008-09 respectively.

Methodology The corporate houses that have expressed investment plans for a particular region have indicated a spread of 3-5 years for their plans to fructify.

Ranks have been assigned, based on the descending order of the amount of investment planned for the state. Comparative analysis has been drawn for the same time period of two different years.

India Inc. investment announcements are planned (not realized), hence industrialists express to invest a large sum of amount in particular sector across 2-3 states, but they do not disclose the ratio of the sum in each state. Thus, to avoid the problem of double counting, ARB, divide the capex amount in equal ratio among the number of states where investment is planned.

Corporate investments in Rajasthan (Oct-Dec 2008-09 over Oct-Dec 2007-08) During the year 2007, the Indian economy boom as Indian industrialist expressed to invest across various sectors and states with the purpose to modernize, expand and set-up new plants. However, the preceding year (2008), started with moderate downfall in terms of the capex planned by the business leaders.

Investment plans by the corporate sector is driven by expectations about the future. Projects are undertaken in those regions where India Inc. foresees returns. In light of this the year 2008 started with turbulence in the global financial markets leading to credit crunch and shaking investors’ confidence, becoming a cause of concern for the corporate India.
