India Entry Strategy for Global Firms
Evaluate the opportunity, choose the right pathway and build the local relationships required to enter India with confidence.
A large market is not an entry strategy. The right sequence is.
India offers scale, talent, industrial capability and fast-evolving demand. It also presents complexity across regions, regulations, channels, pricing and partnerships.
We help global firms move from broad interest to a focused India thesis—identifying where to play, how to enter, whom to work with and what must happen in the first 100 days.
Five connected workstreams take the India opportunity from assessment to activation.
The scope is calibrated to the decision, with one senior team accountable across the journey.
Opportunity & location assessment
Sector attractiveness, customer demand, competitive context, location options and relevant policy considerations.
Entry route & operating model
Evaluation of entity, partnership and operating options with qualified legal, tax and financial professionals.
Partner & customer discovery
Identification and assessment of customers, distributors, suppliers, joint-venture and operating partners.
Localisation & ecosystem navigation
Proposition, channel and pricing choices supported by access to relevant institutions and public agencies.
