As India approaches 2026, it continues to rank among the world’s fastest-growing major economies, with GDP growth projected at approximately 7 percent. Investment momentum remains strong across manufacturing, technology, renewable energy, and consumer markets, supported by policy reforms, infrastructure development, and expanding domestic demand.
At the same time, India’s operating environment is undergoing significant transformation. Newly concluded and forthcoming Free Trade Agreements with the United Kingdom, Oman, the EFTA countries, and New Zealand are reshaping market access, tariff structures, and supply chain planning. Domestically, regulatory developments—including the rollout of new labour codes, ongoing GST reforms, and the implementation of the Digital Personal Data Protection (DPDP) Act, are influencing compliance frameworks, workforce structuring, and data governance for foreign enterprises.
In this evolving landscape, foreign investors and multinational companies must align commercial strategies with regulatory and operational considerations. Entry and expansion decisions increasingly require a clear understanding of sector-specific regulations, policy direction, and execution risks across India’s central and state-level jurisdictions.
Dezan Shira & Associates invites you to join Ankur Munjal, Country Director – India, and Naina Bhardwaj, International Business Advisory Manager, for a strategic briefing on doing business in India in 2026. The session will provide practical insights into economic and sector trends, foreign direct investment opportunities, regional investment considerations, market entry structuring options, and key regulatory developments affecting foreign companies.
The webinar is designed to support informed decision-making and to help participants evaluate how to establish and scale a compliant, resilient, and sustainable presence in India.
