Over the past two years, JETRO has conducted an extensive survey consisting of interviews

with over 200 companies, particularly Indian and Japanese, on the current status of corporate

partnership between the two countries and the potential for using India as an export base to

enter the west market*. This pamphlet summarizes the interview results into 10 points.

JETRO is working to disseminate the survey results through our website and seminars. We

hope that the survey will contribute to the further invigoration of business exchange between

India and Japan.

Points of particular note when partnering with local companies (multiple answers allowed, N=214)

Expectations for Local Partners（multiple answers allowed, N=212）

◆ Many Japanese companies whose participation in this market has until now been inadequate are now exploring partnerships with local companies in India aiming at full-fledged market entry.

◆ By partnering with Indian companies, these Japanese companies hope to access sales channels, personnel and sources of funding of these local companies.

Untappedmarkets

Fear of further delay

Lack of resources

Localization

Outsourcing

The diversity of the Indian market is different from that of the market which Japanese compa-nies have experienced until now. Due to few examples of either success or failure cases, there is no business model to serve as a norm or benchmark. Japanese companies are cautious about entering the market in a business environment containing risks.

Each day, numerous multinational companies are entering the Indian market, resulting in increased competition. Japanese companies worry that they will miss the timing for market entry if they con-tinue to hesitate. In order to take business chances in the rapidly growing Indian market, one option is to start operation using the existing business infrastructure of Indian companies.

There are few Japanese companies capable of committing abundant funds and many experi-enced staff members to India because companies have been expanding in Japan, China and ASEAN. Many Japanese companies expect Indian companies to share the costs of investment and realizing the desired business scale.

Localization is a key concept in emerging-market strategy. In addition to localization of prod-ucts and human resources, Japanese companies seek hints on how to configure their business.

India lacks an established supply chain. In many cases, conventional business models will not succeed. Accordingly, one tactic is utilizing external resources to flexibly operate/manage these resources. Based on experience in China, many Japanese companies select balanced operation of in-house manufacturing and outsourcing when they start business in the country.

Main reasons why Indian companies are interested in partnering

Main reasons why Indian companies are interested in partnering

◆ With a number of recent policy moves such as FTAs focusing on Asian countries, Indian companies expect to tap the high potential for growth in Asian economies and companies.

◆ Japanese companies in particular have moved vigorously into India in recent years, and are advancing strongly into India-Japan partnerships in areas such as the Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) and the Chennai-Ben-galuru Industrial Corridor (CBIC) projects. As such, Japanese companies are viewed as attractive partners.

Japanesebusiness

Increasedcompetition

Diversification/restructuring

Finance

Generationalchange

Mainly in the automotive field, there has been successive entry of Japanese companies into the Indian market. The presence of Japanese companies is increasing day by day. Furthermore, India-Japan cooperation is being enhanced in areas related to domestic industrial policy, such as the projects of Delhi-Mumbai Industrial Corridor (DMIC) and Chennai-Bengaluru Industrial Corridor (CBIC). This has led to increased expectations towards Japan (Japanese companies) as a business partner. Moreover, mid- to small-sized Indian companies see partnerships with Japanese companies as a gateway to participating in Japanese business.

The Indian market is being deregulated and there is fierce competition among both domestic and foreign companies. The speed with which companies rise and fall has also increased. Due to the rapid diversification and change of consumer/user needs, even Indian companies which possess a firm foothold and commercial channels in the local market are also seeking for differentiation through the technology, quality, brand, know-how, sales channels and procurement networks of foreign companies. Moreover, in order to enter new growth markets, an increasing number of Indian companies are hurrying to globalize through acquiring foreign companies.

Many Indian companies have positioned business diversification as the core of their growth strategy. This trend provides an opportunity for foreign companies which possess a core advan-tage (technology, etc.) to enter the Indian market. As a result, numerous partnerships have been formed. On the other hand, there are signs of restructuring due to recent economic slow-down and excessive diversification, which has led to an increase in M&A.

As a solution to high procurement cost caused by high interest rates, there are many cases of supplementing funds with foreign investment, including institutional investors. The movement of mutual funds has stagnated due to sensitivity towards risk in emerging countries and invest-ment from Europe and America has weakened. Therefore, many Indian companies hope for equity investment from Japanese firms.

In the case of Indian Companies which are controlled by families, the business line sometimes changes dramatically when a new generation of management assumes control. More than 20 years have passed since economic liberalization in India. From major companies to conglomerates and mid-/small-sized companies, an increasing number of companies are experiencing a genera-tional change in which the founders are retiring. The second generation tends to reduce the man-ufacturing industry which requires long-term investment and technological renewal, while expanding the service industry. Therefore, there is interest in partnerships (including the sale of companies) to Japanese manufacturing companies which possess both capital and technology.

Voices of Japanese companiesDifferences in way of thinking

between Japanese and Indian companies


Differences in way of thinking between Japanese and Indian companies on partnership

◆ When Japanese and Indian companies form partnerships, there are differences in way of thinking between the two sides regarding quality and technology management, facility investment, profit management, competition and trading spheres, decision-making and management policy.

◆ It is essential for the companies to establish tight-knit communication, so as to gain a clear understanding of the differences in approaches and values between the two sides and to overcome those differences.

4

1. “Indian companies wantwork, not technology.” in terms of quality/technology management

》Indian partners are satisfied with current quality as long as sufficient demand exists.

》 Due to cost considerations, Indian partners cannot accept the introduction of technology and improvement of quality from Japanese companies.

》 Indian partners see technological value as cost, not as management expenses.

2. “Indian companies are averse to long-term investment.”in terms of facilities investment

》Indian partners are not interested in investment or businesses which do not make profit directly or quickly.

》Instead of making long-term investment, Indian partners are always think-ing of high-yield methods.

》Regarding fund procurement, Indian partners seek to borrow while Japan companies seek to increase capital.

3. ”Priority is given to profit in India.”in terms of profit management

》Indian partners seem not to understand that operations in India are only one part of a global strategy for Japanese companies.

》Indian partners prioritize profit within the domestic market.

4. “Japanese companies want to sell to different customers.”in terms of competition and trading spheres

》Indian partners diversify their business and enter the same business as their Japanese partners.

》Japanese companies compete with their Indian partners in overseas busi-ness (outside of India) and the export market from India.

》Business with Japanese clients is not possible due to collaboration with conglomerates, who are competitors.

5. “Decisions in Indian companies are not made by the company.” in terms of decision-making

》The majority of decision making in Indian companies is at the discretion of the owner.

》Employees in Indian companies are used to top-down management and lack teamwork.

6. “Japanese companies face difficulties in understanding Indian companies way of doing business.” in terms of management policy

》When collaborating with Indian conglomerates, their rules are applied.》As soon as Indian partners become minority investors, they began to seek

dividends.》Japanese companies will become a part of the Indian companies if Japa-

nese companies relinquish control of operation.

10 advantages for entering the west market through India

1.2 bill ion people

Potential for entering the west market (Middle East and Africa):10 advantages

◆ Many Japanese companies have come to India with the aim of entering its domestic market. However, business in India offers opportunities other than just entry into the Indian market.

◆ One such opportunity is the “look west” approach: entry into the “west market” (the Middle East and Africa). India offers many advantages as a spring-board for entering the west market, including geographical proximity, a network of Indian expa-triates and market similarity.

5

1. Geographical advantage As opposed to East Asian countries, India is located on the opposite shore of the Arabian sea and has good access to the west market.

2. Historical/cultural connection India has strong historical connections with Gulf countries and Africa. 19 African countries belong to the same British Commonwealth as India.

3. Market similarity Middle Eastern and African markets are diversified and class-structured. This characteristic is similar to the strong independence of states in India.

4. Similar market maturity and growth process

There are large numbers of low and mid-class consumers in the west market. In general, there is a volume zone of consumers who are sensitive to the price of products and services in this market.

5. English-speaking employeesThe high English-language proficiency of Indians facilitates a variety of com-mercial activities. The overwhelming majority of countries in the west market use English as the business language.

6. Scale of industry and personnelWest of India, there are no countries which rival the industry accumulation and scale of India. India offers many advantages as a frontline base of the west market.

7. Rich resources

India has sought nationalization in all fields. In addition to being one of the world’s leaders in production amount of agricultural and marine products and fibers, India also provides a wealth of basic engineering products such as metals and chemicals.

8. Network of Indians residing overseas

Approximately 5 million Indians reside in the Middle East and approximately 4 million reside in Africa. They form the most promising business network as local bases for business originating from India.

9. Desire to expand overseas 　(toward west)

Deregulation of foreign exchange controls continues and Indian corporation are becoming more interested in overseas investment.

10. Support from Indian governmentThe Indian Government strongly supports Indian companies’ entry into the west market, with measures such as active provision of information on investment in Africa and tax incentives for exporters.

India as an export base6◆ India’s export value has expanded greatly in recent years. Over the past decade, the country’s exports have mul-

tiplied six-fold, to approximately US$300 billion. Whereas 10 years ago India’s export value was lower than those of Thailand and Indonesia, today it significantly exceeds them.

◆ Key exports are petrochemical products, jewelry and agricultural and marine products. Industrial products including transportation equipment, machinery and medical and pharmaceutical products also capture a large share.

◆ In recent years, the west market’s share of India’s exports has climbed rapidly.

Government policies for encouraging exports and related issues

◆ The Indian Government has implemented a variety of export promotion schemes and established SEZs. The gov-ernment also focuses on building ties with Africa, a region with strong growth prospect as well as deep historical relationship with India. The Indian Ministry of Commerce has launched the “Focus Africa” Program with mea-sures such as active provision of information on investment in Africa and tax incentives for exporters.

◆ Although use of the various export promotion schemes has progressed greatly among Indian companies, there are requests for improvement from Japanese companies in India.

1. Special Economic Zones(SEZs)

2. Variety of export promotion schemes

》 The EPCG Scheme aims at exemption of duties for capital goods related to production of export products.This scheme requires a 8-fold increase in export of products in 8 years. Our company is focusing on both domestic sales and exports. Since the ratio between the domestic and overseas markets could change due to the market situation, the mandate for export amounts has become a bottleneck in using the scheme.

》 The Duty Drawback Scheme (DDS) aims at offering refunds for export products. However, when applying for drawbacks, it is necessary to submit certificates of duty paid by business partners for applicable parts and materials. Furthermore, even certificates of the sub-sub contractors are needed. This results in a massive amount of documents which must be submit-ted. In addition, a great amount of time is required for clearance of the procedures. Simplification of the scheme is request-ed such as designating companies in good standing and conducting periodic audits instead of inspecting every clearance.

Population 27 million

Network of Indian people in the west market

◆ An estimated 27 million Indian citizens live in countries outside India. This figure makes the Indian diaspora one of the largest in the world, second only to an estimated 40 million diasporic Chinese. Indians living abroad are connected with India through various forms. Recently, residents living abroad are exerting considerable influ-ence on the Indian economy.

◆ This diaspora has a major social and economic impact on the countries of the west market.

Current state of overseas activities of Indian companies

◆ Overseas operations of Indian companies have been growing briskly since 2005, when India posted econom-ic growth of over 9%. One factor in this overseas expansion is these companies’ favorable business results, which have enabled them to build capital and earn trust. However, the main factor is thought to be capital liberalization. Since 2003, foreign-exchange controls on overseas investment (curbs on remittance and bor-rowing) have been gradually relaxed.

◆ Much of this overseas expansion by Indian companies has been in the west market. Key background factors supporting this phenomenon include the extensive network provided by the Indian diaspora in the west market and the similarities between the Indian and west markets (maturity, longstanding relationships with European countries, etc.) .

Opportunities in the westmarket for India-Japan partnership

◆ In the overseas activities of companies, regional blocs that include India tend to be divided into two categories: Block A which includes East Asia and Block B that includes the Middle East and Africa. In Block A, Japanese com-panies have formed detailed supply chains and hope that India will further participate in these supply chains. Re-gional partnerships such as the ASEAN-India FTA and India-Japan EPA, as well as the RCEP currently under nego-tiation, are accelerating this effort.

◆ In Block B, Japanese companies are launching business in the west market from India in an increasing number of cases. One option for doing so is to partner with an Indian company with extensive experience in the west market. Expectations for this approach are currently rising. From the perspective of Indian companies, collabo-rating with Japanese companies, with established supply chains in East Asia, offers an opportunity to improve their competitive position and gain an advantage in expansion of the west market.
