Though recent May 2020 standoff that continued between India and China in Galwan valley was not taken by the Indian leadership as routine water testing by the Chinese. India took it seriously and very well managed to handle the aggression on its own and halted the China’s backdoor thinking of projecting themselves a superpower at least in Asia. Now it’s going to be a normal routine along the LAC as India is now determined to change the ground strategic infrastructure reality along the LAC. By tackling Chinese on its own, India has bolstered its position in the world’s strategic power pie chart. Further India need to work on many fronts to meet the challenges and convert these sour relations in a Diplomatic, Economic and Strategic opportunities for India. The aim of this paper is to analyze in detail the India’s stand against the PLA's incursion, internal assessment to meet this “going to be routine” challenge on LAC and further considering the India’s population, market size and china’s sour relations with neighbors, it’s time for India to encash the opportunities out of such attempts from China.

Shifting power balances on the Eurasian continent present both challenges and opportunities for further trilateral cooperation among Russia, India, and China (RIC). The call for a new Asia-Pacific security architecture underscores the strategic importance of a closer trilateral relationship. From a macro perspective, the current international system and regional structure offer favorable conditions for building a strategic RIC trio, yet at the micro level, major barriers will largely remain with regard to the domestic politics, public perceptions and policy implementation of the three countries. Only by strengthening strategic planning and operational cooperation while drawing lessons from the development of other multilateral cooperation mechanisms, can the three countries advance their strategic ties to a new level.

The geopolitics of South Asia attracts both China and India. South Asia has been a region in which, for many years, India and China have tried to achieve political and economic influence. India’s forefront policy to deal with its neighbours since independence has been its ‘Neighbourhood First’ policy. Even if there have been inconsistency and different approaches adopted by the Indian leadership to implement this policy in the region, India has always aimed to avoid major geopolitical changes in South Asia. However, the post-Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) engagement of China has challenged India’s position in the region. This article investigates India’s ‘Neighbourhood First’ policy and evaluates its relevance with that of the BRI.

FDI has been a catalyst for channelizing economic growth and development in a country. India and China are among the most attractive countries in the world to invest according to a recent UNTCAD survey. Domestic market size has been the most important factor responsible for investors preferring china. India is performing a better job than China in terms of utilization of resources on the larger scale. Though the FDI inflows of India are comparatively lower but the percentage growth in FDI inflows through these years have been dominating the percentage growth rate of FDI inflows of China. The figures we get from World Investment Report 2016 (UNTCAD) disclose that India’s inward stock makes a higher percent of its respective GDP which implies the better and optimum contribution of FDI into GDP. FDI’s greater contribution in the GDP and overall economy can attract more FDI inflows as compared to the lesser contribution in the GDP. We used Karl Pearson’s coefficient of correlation for correlating the values of FDI and GDP for India and China. It suggested a greater contribution of FDI into the GDP of India as compared to that of China’s.

Quality of institutions has been found to positively affect Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) flows. This, however, fails to explain the flow of FDI into countries with poor quality of institutions like India and China. This article shows that FDI flows in the form of cross-border mergers and acquisitions (CBMAs) in India share a negative relationship with the gap in quality of institutions between the host and home countries after controlling for market size and market opportunity in the home and host country and infrastructural facilities in the host country. This suggests that apart from market size and opportunity, CBMAs in India are attracted by poor quality of institutions, particularly corruption and poor governance in the country.

This study presents the status of the burgeoning global halal market, challenges it faces, and opportunities available for stakeholders. The study is based on primary and secondary research, and found that the US$2.1trillion halal market is projected to reach US $3 trillion by the end of 2023 at a compound annual growth rate of 6.11 per cent. The present market size will more than double if Islamic financing is brought under the ambit of the halal market. Though the uncharted territory has a lot of potential to be tapped, it is also afflicted with multifaceted challenges such asa lack of global consensus (ijama).It is recommended that a harmonized system (HS)code-like mechanism be adopted to capture trade figures of products that conform to halal principles.

The competition among countries to attract foreign direct investment (FDI) has increased significantly in the last two decades. While comparing FDI flows across countries, the comparison between India and China is a significant area of interest as these two countries enjoy strong similarities with each other in terms of population and market size and are also among the top prospective host economies for FDI inflows. However, they differ significantly in terms of their FDI performance. While China remains the largest host country in the developing world in terms of FDI inflows, India has been unable to attract comparable FDI inflows despite having a huge market. This paper analyses the aggregated as well as segregated trends in FDI inflows of both the countries and also presents a comparative analysis of the two countries in terms of their FDI policies and other macroeconomic factors. The analysis reveals that India needs further liberalization of its FDI policy and norms
