The revisions will now be introduced to Parliament.
The Indian cabinet has approved to increase the FDI limit in insurance firms to 74%, reports the Press Trust of India.
The FDI revisions will be introduced to Parliament for approval and once approved, the process for an applicable framework will start.
First proposed during a budget meeting in February, the new FDI rules also require that resident Indians should comprise the majority of board directors whilst at least 50% of directors should be independent.
