IF our next government is a Congress one supported by NF-LF elements, one can expect, at the very least, some restrictions on TNC entry and on setting up 100-per cent subsidiaries except in hi-tech sectors. In fact, a slowdown on TNC approvals seems on the cards whichever coalition comes to power. The variation will be only in the level of restrictions: the most for an NF-LF-led coalition, and less for the other two coalitions.
