Kathmandu, Apr 29 (PTI) Nepal Finance Minister Barsha Man Pun on Monday released a handbook for Indian investors keen on exploring more business opportunities in the Himalayan nation.
Published by the Nepal India Chamber of Commerce and Industries (NICCI), the handbook released on the sidelines of the Nepal Investment Summit 2024 consists of insights into rules, regulations, taxation, investment climate, intellectual property rights, and investment procedures for prospective investors looking to engage with Nepal's market.

There are about 150 Indian ventures operating in Nepal engaged in manufacturing, services (banking, insurance, dry port, education and telecom), power sector and tourism industries. Indian companies and investments have played a key role in Nepal's national economic journey by contributing to industrialization, employment generation, government revenue and export earnings.
The two-day summit, which concluded on Monday, also witnessed the signing of four bilateral agreements, including one with an Indian company, to foster economic cooperation.
The Federation of Nepalese Chamber of Commerce (FNCCI) and the National Chamber of Commerce and Industry of Malaysia (NCCIM) on Sunday signed a bilateral agreement to explore trade and investment opportunities.
