The report was released here today in the presence of Japanese ambassador to India Kenji Hiramatsu, India-Japan Business Cooperation Committee (IJBCC) Chairman Onkar S Kanwar, Ficci Secretary General Sanjaya Baru and other delegates from both the sides.
Hiramatsu said the growth potential lies with the sectors like textile, infrastructure and medical in India.
“There are about 1,309 Japanese companies in India and number is growing steadily. It will grow in the years to come,” the ambassador told PTI on the sidelines of the event.
He further said that he would like to congratulate the Indian government for “reforming the Indian economy (with legislation) like GST but we need to have more improvement of infrastructure”.
However, situations are improving and more and more companies are interested in doing business in this country because of the improvements and there is a lot more to come in the future, he added.
Talking about the Japanese investment in the future, Kanwar said the amount is expected to double by the year 2025.
