Why no more Mauritius for India?

According to data released by the Reserve Bank of India (RBI), India has witnessed a 69.3 per cent decline in foreign direct investment (FDI) from Mauritius in the first six months ended September 2019.

In the midst of the surging efforts and hopes of increased FDI, its not the first time that Singapore has surpassed Mauritius. India had amended its 33-year old tax treaty with Mauritius in May 2016 and revised it with Singapore in December that year to plug loopholes exploited by companies in tax havens to avoid legitimate taxes

However, Singapore has a robust and fairly transparent financial system with easier access to funds at low costs, thus many foreign companies with interest in India are inclined to invest via Singapore rather than Mauritius.
