Uday Kotak backs Chinese investment in India, says 'If you can't beat them, join them'

Veteran banker Uday Kotak urged India to remain open to Chinese investment and manufacturing partnerships amid shifting global trade ties. "If you can't beat them, join them," he said. "Historically, India has looked too much to the West for investment, but with the challenges, particularly from the US...the time has come for India to keep all...options open," he said.
