27. FUTURE OUTLOOK
The trade between India and Germany is expected to reach Euros 20 billion
According to a recent study by KPMG more than 80% of the German companies see India with tremendous
growth potential.
Despite challenges that the German companies face, especially the SMEs, they remain quite bullish about the
Indian Market.
Harsh Pati Singhania, President, FICCI highlighted two main forces which would stimulate Indo-German ties
in future.
• First, the mutually reinforcing link between economy and technology in the bilateral relations.
• Second, the trend of bilateral investment and third, is a partnership in the global arena on concerns of global impact
such as poverty, disease, environment and climate change, energy security etc.
The German pharmaceutical industry has seen tremendous growth and Generics constitutes one-fifth of that
growth. Germany has developed affordable generic medicines and now collaboration with India will make
them available to Indian SMEs.
Indonesia, Vietnam, Myanmar and Russia are the emerging markets which could draw away investments
meant for India.

28. FOR PROSPECTIVE INVESTORS
A large market size,
and population having
varying tastes, the
German companies
should look to have a
wider portfolio of
customized products
Indian market is
price sensitive.
Pricing of the
products should
be done keeping in
mind the local
mindsets.
German SMEs
have difficulties in
procuring talent.
SMEs typically do
not have the funds
or resources to
conduct training
sessions.
The companies setting
up business in India
should lay focus on
quality, technology and
after sales support.
It can prove
beneficial for
German
companies to find
a local partner.
Doing business is
easy and entry
becomes
convenient too.
Due to large
market size,
company
encounter lower
volumes and
larger business
cycles. Thus, it is
crucial to have a
reliable vendor.

29. CONCLUSION
• India has expertise in knowledge based industries. The R&D centres and BPOs make India an attractive destination.
• The efficiency of the policies and the lack of proper infrastructure makes the trickle-down effect difficult.s It is
difficult for corporates to tap the potential of Indian market in absence of proper procedures and innovative systems
to reach the heart of India.
• The working age population is on the rise and the dependency ratios are lower. This means, the strain on the public
finances is going to decrease, having a positive impact on the deficits and growth of the economy.
• Although, the growth of the middle class in India is a boon to the companies, but the income levels are still lesser
than those in developed countries making it imperative for business’ to price their products sensitively.
• India does have an edge over other countries when it comes to the supply of resources and skilled manpower. India
is a hub for outsourcing.
• According to a survey, tapping into new sales markets (66 percent) and sources of supply (49 percent) were the
main motives for SMEs to operate internationally. Apart from this, 34 percent mentioned "access to knowledge“, 23
percent "skilled workers" and "low-cost labour" was a motive for another 9 percent.
