Pre Entry Services

India is becoming an attractive investment destination for foreign companies. The Government of India is taking several initiatives including easing of compliance burdens, relaxing FDI norms, offering reduced tax rates, to name a few, to attract foreign investors to India.

However, gaining access to India’s markets requires thorough research and analyses to minimize the many risks associated with venturing into a new country. Market conditions, sector-specific challenges, types of business entities, cross country regulations, target markets, and other important elements should be identified, and appropriate entry strategies should be devised.
