Dubai ka Financial Hub Status Hila?
Basically, West Asia mein jo geopolitical instability badh rahi hai, uski wajah se Dubai ka naam ek top financial center ke taur par thoda shaky ho gaya hai. Isse global investors aur UAE mein rehne wale Indian diaspora (NRIs) bhi ab apna paisa kahin aur lagane ka soch rahe hain.
India ka GIFT City Bana Naya Option
Aur isi uncertainty ka fayda uthane ke liye sabki nazar ab GIFT City par hai! Experts keh rahe hain ki yeh India ke liye international investments ka ek bada gateway ban sakta hai. Artha Bharat Investment Managers IFSC LLP ke founder, Sachin Sawrikar ne bola, "Log yahan banks mein accounts khol rahe hain aur dollars move kar rahe hain. NRIs apna paisa aise jurisdiction se bahar nikalna chahte hain jahan ab risk zyada hai."
NRI Paisa Aa Raha Hai GIFT City
NRIs toh waise bhi India ki economy ke liye BADI deal hain. FY25 mein toh unki remittances $135.46 billion tak pahunch gayi thi! Aur is fiscal year mein hi GIFT City mein bane funds mein NRIs ne lagbhag ₹60,998 crore invest kiye hain. Ye number kafi impressive hai!
GIFT City ka Long-Term Plan
SBI ke Group Chief Economic Advisor, Soumya Kanti Ghosh ne bhi kaha hai ki West Asia ki tension global investors aur NRIs ko Dubai se hatne par majboor kar rahi hai, aur GIFT City ek stable global destination banne ka accha mauka hai. Long-term strategy toh yahi hai ki yeh globally oriented Indian wealth ke liye ek gateway bane.
Talent Aur Infrastructure Bhi Zaroori Hai
Lekin, sirf tax benefits hi kaafi nahi hain. Haal hi mein 20 saal ki tax holiday extend bhi hui hai. Par, talent ko attract karna aur ek poora ecosystem banana abhi bhi challenges hain. Ek industry executive ne pointed out kiya ki "Dubai jaise established ecosystem se nikalna sirf financial calculation nahi, balki lifestyle bhi badalna hai." Toh, GIFT City ko sirf paisa nahi, balki families aur talent ko bhi pull karna hoga.
