                        computer services. Gross inward FDI was $6.60 in September 2025 as against $6.33 billion in
                        September 2024.

                   • However, net FDI turned negative in September 2025. The repatriation was flat at $5.19 billion in
                        the month as against $5.2 billion a year ago. The outward FDI vaulted to $3.78 billion from $ 2.3
                        billion in September 2024.

                   • For outward FDI, the key destinations were Singapore, Mauritius, the UAE, and the US while major
                        sectors included financial services, insurance & business services, agriculture & mining, and
                        manufacturing, the report added.

               8. India could attract $4.1 trillion in green investments by 2047: CEEW

                   • India could attract $4.1 trillion in green investments and create 48 million full-time equivalent
                        (FTE) jobs by 2047, according to a new study by the Council on Energy, Environment and Water
                        (CEEW).

                   • The analysis also projects an annual green market worth $1.1 trillion by 2047, driven by 36 green
                        value chains across the energy transition, circular economy, and bio-economy and nature-based
                        solutions.

                   • Nearly 92% of required investments—about $3.79 trillion—would flow into the energy transition,
                        across renewable energy, storage, clean mobility, and green hydrogen. These sectors, while highly
                        capital-intensive, would create a significant share of high-skilled jobs.

                   • The study highlights that India’s green economy extends beyond solar and EVs to a far broader
                        spectrum spanning bio-based materials, agroforestry, green construction, sustainable tourism,
                        circular manufacturing, waste-to-value industries, and nature-based livelihoods.

                   • Bio-economy & nature-based solutions could unlock $415 billion in annual market value and
                        create 23 million jobs by 2047. Major contributors within this segment include chemical-free
                        agriculture and bio-inputs, agroforestry and sustainable forest management, and wetland
                        management.

                   • Circular economy could generate $132 billion in annual economic output and create 8.4 million
                        FTE jobs by 2047 across waste collection, recycling, repair, refurbishment, and material recovery.
                        Of these, 7.6 million FTE jobs would arise from waste-related activities, including roles in
                        collection, sorting, aggregation, recycling operations, and last-mile resource recovery.

                   • The CEEW study also lists significant challenges: lowering capital costs for early-stage sectors,
                        improving supply chains for raw and recycled materials, strengthening R&D and innovation,
                        building a technically skilled workforce, and establishing trusted product standards for emerging
                        green technologies. It states that coordinated action across ministries, state governments,
