⇒ Increase in year 1993 = 10.15 – 5.7 = 4.45
Percentage increase = (4.45/5.7) × 100 = 78.07%
⇒ Increase in year 1994 = 12.16 – 10.15 = 2.01
Percentage increase = (2.01/10.15) × 100 = 19.80%
⇒ Decrease in year 1995 = 12.16 – 10.22 = 1.94
Percentage decrease = (1.94/12.16) × 100 = 15.95%
⇒ Increase in year 1996 = 24.23 – 10.22 = 14.01
Percentage increase = (14.01/10.22) × 100 = 137.08%
⇒ Increase in year 1997 = 31.36 – 24.23 = 7.13
Percentage increase = (7.13/24.23) × 100 = 29.42%
Therefore, the year in which FDI over the previous year was highest in 1996.
