व्यापारविषयक गुंतवणूक उपायानुसार
1) परकीय भांडवल कंपन्यांवरील सर्व बंधने रद्द करणे
2) गुंतवणूकीच्या कोणत्याही क्षेत्रावर बंधने न लादणे
3) कच्च्यामालाच्या मुक्त आयातीस परवानगी देणे
4) उत्पादनाच्या काही भागाची निर्यात अनिवार्य असणार
वरीलपैकी कोणती विधाने बरोबर आहेत ?

The correct answer is Option B (1, 2 and 3).

Key Points:
• The Agreement on Trade-Related Investment Measures (TRIMs / व्यापारविषयक गुंतवणूक उपाय) is an integral multilateral agreement under the WTO that prohibits trade-distorting conditions imposed on foreign investment.
• Core principles of TRIMs include National Treatment (Article III of GATT) and the Elimination of Quantitative Restrictions (Article XI of GATT).
• Evaluating the statements:
• Statements 1, 2, and 3 reflect the liberalization agenda under TRIMs: removing discriminatory restrictions on foreign capital companies, opening areas of investment without arbitrary local barriers, and permitting the unrestricted import of raw materials/inputs (prohibiting local content requirements).
• Statement 4 is explicitly INCORRECT because TRIMs strictly bans mandatory export performance obligations or export balancing requirements imposed on foreign investors.
• Statements 1, 2, and 3 are correct (Option 2).
• Key Takeaway: TRIMs eliminates discriminatory restrictions on foreign investments and prohibits mandatory export balancing requirements.
