It is well recognized in the concerned literature that export-oriented FDI is more beneficial for the host country than purely domestic market-seeking FDI. However, the existing literature has not examined those factors that could motivate existing market-seeking FDI into export activities. The present study addresses this issue and identifies factors encouraging market-seeking FDI to take up export activities. The empirical analysis of exportorientation of foreign firms in Indian manufacturing across 17 Indian industries during 1991–2005 has brought out several policy issues important for increasing export-orientation of foreign firms in a developing country like India.</p>}, number={7}, journal={Eurasian Journal of Business and Economics}, author={PRADHAN, Jaya Prakash and DAS, Keshab and PAUL, Mahua}, year={2011}, month={May}, pages={99-127} }
