Global businesses can ignore India at their own peril, as it's internally driven economy will work in favour of the country in the long run.
That's according to investment analyst Marc Faber who says although there will be many challenges for the country on it's journey to reach its economic peak, global investors shouldn't write it off.
It comes as President Obama has announced a trip to the country this spring, during which he'll be looking at ways the government can help small businesses through the recession.
He said "...What government can do is provide a temporary boost that puts money in people's pockets and keeps workers on the job, cuts taxes for small businesses, generates more demand, gives confidence to entrepreneurs that maybe they don't have to cut back right now, maybe they can hold steady in their plans and in their dreams".
