Enron Development Corporation, a part of American Enron, believed they could solve India’s power problem through the construction of the gas-fired power station, the Dabhol Power Company (DPC), in Maharashtra. “The ENRON/Dabhol project represented India’s biggest single foreign direct investment, and was intended to be showcase for India as a bankable country on the global stage.” (Rangan & McCaffrey, 1).

India’s current governing body wants to open their infrastructure sectors (power, telecommunications, air transport and roads) to private sector companies. They believed the development of a strong infrastructure was required for the country to have a prosperous future. However, foreign investors were not sure if India was stable enough for their direct investment. A successful DPC would make India much more attractive for foreign investment
