India markets are opening new doors for #swisscompanies looking to expand their global footprint. Swiss industry leaders like ABB and Kuehne+Nagel are already #investing in India, and the recently signed Trade and Economic Partnership Agreement (TEPA) with the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) offers even more incentive. #TEPA’s tariff reductions—down to zero on 94.7% of exports—position Swiss companies ahead of the curve, giving them a competitive edge in India over their European and British counterparts.   This November, Innorail 2024 in Lucknow presents a powerful opportunity for Swiss businesses to engage with India’s booming railway sector. Hosted by the Ministry of Railways, Government of India, #Innorail serves as a dynamic hub where the world’s top industry players converge to showcase cutting-edge technology, discuss innovation, and collaborate with Indian Railways on their ambitious plans for growth. For Swiss companies focused on #internationalization, this is the ideal setting to explore India’s demand for advanced technology, high-quality engineering, and reliable solutions.   To support Swiss decision-makers in harnessing these opportunities, we’re hosting an exclusive Business Breakfast in collaboration with Switzerland Global Enterprise. Led by Deepmala Datta, our expert in international business expansion, this gathering will delve into India’s growth potential and provide practical insights on market entry, strategic partnerships, and scalable growth for Swiss companies.   With years of experience, Maier Vidorno Altios has supported Swiss clients like Ammann India, Condair Group (Humidification, Evaporative Cooling and Humidity Control), duagon and Regent Beleuchtungskörper AG , offering market entry, back-office solutions, and comprehensive growth strategies Our tailored services and deep expertise in the Indian business landscape equip your company with the tools to succeed in this dynamic market.   Join us to understand how your company can make the most of India’s new trade advantages, connect with local stakeholders, and seize strategic opportunities in India’s high-potential railway sector.

#Competition Distortions In #India - A @CUTS_Inter Dossier Dive into the #62nd edition of our insights-packed Competition Distortions dossier, unraveling the dynamic world of Indian policy shaping competitive markets. From October to December 2023, we unveil a tapestry of ideas and stories that define the competitive landscape in India. Please find appended the link for earlier dossiers: https://lnkd.in/gXSbfXPp Our previous editions spotlighted the soaring challenges in India's civil aviation sector, haunted by post-pandemic price gouging. Struggling to recover, the industry's unchecked pricing impact extends beyond affordability, denting passenger traffic by adding to their out-of-pocket expenditures, hindering low-cost carriers, and posing threats to tourism and business travel. Thus, we intend to explore the multifaceted implications of the price surge in the civil aviation sector, advocating for prompt and judicious government intervention to instill fairness and sustain healthy competition, noting that India is a free market economy. This edition of the dossier further adds to some news from the civil aviation sector and its impact on enhancing market competitiveness.

Building a structure is straightforward with a solid foundation, but constructing from scratch is challenging. Similarly, consider the tax revenue collected over the years. By comparing these figures, you'll grasp the underlying reality. Development happens under any government, but mere propaganda is pointless. As for becoming the third-largest economy, it was the collective effort of our forefathers, not the achievement of a single individual.

You might recall I flicked the out of office on and headed off on some travels the other week. I went to India and I am only now processing the absolute assault on the senses that it was. A lot of eyes will be on India in the coming months as the biggest democratic election gets underway. When I was there, the first signs it was about to take place were beginning to emerge; think election posters and posters featuring Prime Minister Modi's face alongside major infrastructure projects. And while there is and will continue to be much discussion and debate about where he is taking the country, India will continue to develop as a significant economic and regional power. India is already the world's 5th biggest economy and its expected to grow by about 6.7% this year. The middle class continues to grow- Apple iPhone sales grew nearly 40% last year and you can see how India used its G20 Presidency to try showcase the country- the roads into central Delhi were replete with fresh tarmac, fresh flowers and lots of construction. Commentators love to debate whether India can truly reach its full potential but because of the sheer size of the place, attaining just some of that potential will be huge. And what has that got to do with us in Europe? I think it has quite a lot actually. Competitiveness is one of the buzzwords du jour in Brussels as we head towards European elections this summer. Some see this as lighting a bonfire of regulation. Others see it as opening a subsidy dam flowing into European businesses. It would probably help by appreciating what we're actually competing with. For India I think one of these things is human capital. So how do we remain competitive against this? Paraphrasing Daft Punk's Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger into something like Better, Faster and Smarter comes to mind. Europe will also need to focus on human capital and enabling infrastructure to equip it to get ahead. Oh and it might help to unlock the free trade deal with India too. But bringing it back to aviation, the industry I currently know best. The numbers are staggering. Delhi airport is one of the largest in the world and low cost carrier IndiGo, whose CEO used to run KLM, is already at 85 million passengers and growing. It has nearly 1000 aircraft on order and most of this is driven by domestic travel. There's a whole lot of international travel to come from Indians which will push those numbers higher. India's aviation story highlights why policymakers need to realise they can't just take a stick and expect industry to come up with all of the solutions. If we're serious about competitiveness, whether for aviation or any other industry, it will take more than just a few bits of legislation or a subsidy sprinkled here and there. It requires a sustained and focused effort that works towards some actual long term goals, while taking into account where Europe actually stands in the world.
