Services | T&A Consulting

T&A’s India market entry consulting services help foreign businesses and Economic Development Organizations (EDOs) navigate one of the world’s most complex markets. Our research and intelligence capabilities augment the limited resources of many EDOs globally, enabling them to offer comprehensive sector studies and dedicated market entry and development services to their exporters — either individually or through group activities such as trade delegations and exhibitions. We also support adjacent mandates including inward investment attraction for EDOs targeting Indian outbound investors and higher education India expansion for foreign universities entering the South Asian market. Much of our work with private businesses comes from direct referrals through our trusted EDO partnerships across the world — many of which are documented in our case studies.

For foreign businesses establishing legal entities in India, registration is regulated under the Companies Act, 2013, with policy guidance from the Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT).

T&A’s inward investment attraction services help Economic Development Organizations (EDOs) and Investment Promotion Agencies (IPAs) identify, qualify, and convert Indian companies pursuing overseas expansion. Indian outbound FDI is at record levels, with companies actively scouting destinations across North America, Europe, and the Middle East for greenfield projects, acquisitions, and Global Capability Centers. We complement EDO efforts on the ground in India, providing CXO-level engagement, qualified pipeline reporting, and event-based activation. For mandates spanning multiple service lines, we also support India market entry consulting for foreign businesses establishing operations and higher education India expansion for academic institutions. India’s outbound investment activity is monitored by the Reserve Bank of India under the FEMA framework — explore our case studies for examples of mandates we’ve delivered.

T&A’s higher education India expansion services help foreign universities and Higher Education Institutions (HEIs) establish a sustainable presence across South Asia’s largest education market. India is now the second-largest source of international students globally, with policy frameworks like the UGC Regulations 2023 and the GIFT City IFSCA pathway opening new routes for foreign campus operations, twinning programmes, and joint degrees. We currently support Queen’s University Belfast on GIFT City operations and have advised institutions across the UK, Ireland, Australia, and North America. Our services complement adjacent mandates including India market entry consulting for university-affiliated commercial ventures and inward investment attraction for education-focused EDOs. Foreign institutions evaluating India entry should reference the University Grants Commission guidelines — explore our case studies for examples of HEI mandates we’ve delivered.

How Our India Outbound Tourism Representation WorksT&A’s India outbound tourism representation services help Destination Marketing Organisations (DMOs), tourism boards, and hospitality groups capture share in one of the world’s fastest-growing outbound travel markets. India’s outbound tourism is projected to expand from $23.4 billion in 2026 to $68.8 billion by 2036, with outbound trips set to grow fivefold by 2040. We provide on-ground representation, trade engagement with Indian OTAs and travel agents, MICE activation, and integrated marketing campaigns targeting Tier-1, Tier-2, and Tier-3 city travellers. Our work also intersects with India market entry consulting for hospitality investments and inward investment attraction for tourism-focused EDOs. Travel and visa policy in India is regulated by the Ministry of Tourism — explore our case studies for examples of destination mandates we’ve delivered.

T&A’s digital engagement for market entry helps foreign organisations build awareness, generate qualified pipeline, and convert prospects in the Indian market — and supports Indian organisations targeting global audiences. Our integrated services span SEO and AI SEO, paid media across Google, Meta, and LinkedIn, content marketing, marketing automation, and analytics, all calibrated to India’s mobile-first, multi-language audience and the growing influence of WhatsApp and direct-messaging funnels. We work alongside our India market entry consulting, inward investment attraction, and higher education India expansion teams to deliver fully integrated campaigns for clients across sectors. For data on India’s digital adoption, organisations can reference the Ministry of Electronics and IT — explore our case studies for examples of digital mandates we’ve delivered.
