India lags behind China in GDP (8.4% for India vs. 10% for China in 2005) and foreign direct investment ($8.4 billion India, and $72.4 billion in China). But doing business in India (with Indian) has less government involvement, and no language barrier.

Success in India will depend on the correct estimation of the country's potential, underestimation of its complexity or overestimation of its possibilities can lead to failure. While calculating, due consideration should be given to the factor of the inherent difficulties and uncertainties of functioning in the Indian system. Entering India's marketplace requires a well-designed plan backed by serious thought and careful research. For those who take the time and look to India as an opportunity for long-term growth, not short-term profit- the trip will be well worth the effort.
