The journey of investment ranges from ideation and justification of investment decisions to commencement of business till eternal sustainability. During this period, numerous activities are involved and with ever evolving modern technologies and changing consumer behaviours, the business needs to recalibrate their elements of focus and action items continuously. This, coupled with the statutory regulations to be complied with, leads to an environment of significant challenges for the business fraternity.
India offers a distinctive competitive advantage to investors. Moreover, its target of becoming a USD 5 trillion economy by FY 2026, with a contribution of USD 3 trillion and over USD 1 trillion from the services and manufacturing sector respectively requires accelerated investments with special focus to be laid up on Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) by supporting their entry into India. However, it can be challenging to navigate the Indian market due to the various nuances and considerations related to location, incentives, labour regulations, and financial and non-financial regulations, including the recent transition from special economic zones (SEZ) to Development of Enterprise and Service Hubs (DESH), amendments in the Manufacturing and Other Operations in Warehouse Regulations (MOOWR) scheme to name a few. In this context, how can an organization tailor its expansion plans to the regulatory environment and select the most suitable location, optimally integrate its backward and forward supply chains, think about sustainable development, and avail the most optimal tax regime?
