1. Such activities would have an adverse impact on industrial investment(or investments). No one should be allowed to take the law into his(or their) hands

2. Everyone loves a great deal. Even while investing in the stock market(or markets)

3. The delegation blamed the police for the delay in taking action. A senior police official, however, said, “Our hands were tried by the government.(is 'tried' is appropriate word to use here)

 4. Best opportunity/opportunities for import & export to the whole world.

5. Here, the booming outsourcing industry of the new information age is as much a reality as its primordial gurukul tradition(or traditions), deep-rooted religious beliefs and elaborate wedding customs.

1. Such activities would have an adverse impact on industrial investment(or investments) [Can be either. "investment" if talking about the generality of investing; "investments" if talking about actual investing]. No one should be allowed to take the law into his(or their) hands.

2. Everyone loves a great deal. Even while investing in the stock market(or markets).

3. The delegation blamed the police for the delay in taking action. However, a senior police official said, “Our hands were tied by the government.(is 'tried' is appropriate word to use here)

 4. Best opportunity/opportunities for import & export to the whole world. 
Which to use will depend on your context and intention. 

5. Here, the booming outsourcing industry of the new information age is as much a reality as its primordial gurukul tradition(or traditions), deep-rooted religious beliefs and elaborate wedding customs. [What is a "gurukul tradition"? Is it likely to have more than one tradition?]
