Ambassadors Foreword
Ladies and Gentlemen,
I am happy to present to you the Finland-India Business Guide 2012-13. The Guide provides a lot of useful
information on Indo-Finnish economic and commercial relations. This year the Guide has been slightly remodelled
by categorising the Finnish and Indian companies sector-wise. We hope that through this change this Guide
provides better and more relevant information to its readers.
Finland and India enjoy excellent relations and substantive bilateral partnerships in various felds of cooperation.
We are very pleased that the Agreement on Social Security between Finland and India was signed in New Delhi
in June 2012. This Agreement complements the already comprehensive contractual relationship between the
Governments of Finland and India. The Agreement afects the social security of people moving between Finland
and India and applies to pensions, in particular. It enables preventing double pension contributions, which is
important for Finnish companies operating in India and the staf employed by them.
The active exchange of high-level visits between our countries continued during the latter part of 2011 into 2012.
Both the President of the Republic of Finland and the Speaker of the Parliament visited India in spring 2012.
We also witnessed several Ministerial visits from Finland to India and vice versa. The 17th session of the Indo-
Finnish Joint Commission was held in New Delhi in November 2011. The Joint Commission deals with questions
concerning bilateral trade relations, their development and potential and examines scope for new modes of co-
operation.
Our capital Helsinki is the World Design Capital in 2012. The theme of the Helsinki World Design Capital year
Open Helsinki, Embedding Design in Life indicates that today design can be found everywhere around us
not only in arts and culture but also in public services, education systems or in policy making. Without design,
there would be no roads, no airplanes, no mobile phones or no cities. Design is becoming increasingly important
for businesses worldwide as they strive to stay competitive. Design is also an important sector in cooperation
between Finland and India.
The Government of Finland adopted a cross-sectoral Action Plan on Finlands External Economic Relations in
May 2012. According to the Plan, a strategic steering group and secretariat working under the Prime Minister
will draw up long-term strategic guidelines in view of promoting exports and internationalisation of Finnish
businesses. One of the key premises of the Action Plan is that the focus of our economic and commercial relations
is shifting towards developing markets like India. We will see the diverse cooperation between Finland and India
strengthening even further in the future. The Embassy of Finland in New Delhi stands ready to do its best to
facilitate this positive development.
H.E. Ms. Terhi Hakala

Finpro Foreword
Dear Reader,
Welcome to explore the 2012-13 Business Guide giving insight to the growing number of Finnish companies,
presently 120, who already have established their presence in India. There is almost another hundred companies
exporting to the Indian market or operating in India via agents. Finnish companies investments into India have
been over 1 billion euros over the years and they are employing already more than 30 000 people.

The international success of Finnish companies is very important to Finland. Finpro through its services assists
companies, especially the SMEs to boost their success in the diferent phases of internationalization. Finpros
global network involves 400 professionals in 68 locations in almost 50 countries. Finpro operates under the
Embassy of Finland in New Delhi. Additional to New Delhi we have dedicated partners working for us in Mumbai
and Chennai.

In June 2012 Investment In Finland operations were merged into Finpro, thus our responsibility being to increase
promotion of inward investment into Finland. There are already many India companies established in Finland. The
goal is to attract further investments into Finland.

Due to the changes in the international business environment and shift in economic focus towards the emerging
markets, Finnish SMEs are increasingly evaluating business possibilities within Indias 28 states and adjacent
markets.

The growth in the international business sector in India is about 6% annually, which translates into market
potential for Finnish companies in developing sectors like: urban infrastructure, transport, building, automation
in manufacturing, ICT in software & services, healthcare, education systems, food supply chain etc..

The main goal of the Indian Government Five Year Economic plan 2012-17 is faster, more sustainable and wider
spread economic wealth for the Indian people which further enhances the fact that there is potential to be found.

Finpro professionals are here at your service! We are part of the core team in the newly established TEAM FINLAND
network.
Best regards,
Leena sterberg

FinNode Message
Dear Innovator,
FinNode India is part of the Finnish FinNode innovation network. FinNode connects Finnish and international
experts and the know-how required to promote innovation. It reveals new openings for Finnish business and
research organisations and supports their internationalisation. FinNode is an entity through which foreign
partners can engage with all the central public innovation organisations in Finland. The other network countries
are USA, China, Russia and Japan.
FinNode India has identifed opportunities for Finland-India collaboration in areas like clean water, energy
efciency, health and biotechnology, skills development and ICT. One overlapping interest area is frugal and
inclusive innovation, where India has a lot to share with the rest of the world. FinNode India initiates joint projects
in these focus areas to foster collaboration between India and Finland, to evaluate opportunities, and to identify
new business models.
Interest towards cooperation between Finnish and Indian organisations is growing fast. Finnish business,
university and government delegations have visited India multiple times over the last year looking for concrete
opportunities for doing things together. During the same time, three calls for joint research were executed with
joint funding by Finnish and Indian government bodies. An interesting example of activities in FinNodes projects
was a piloting trip of small Finnish companies to rural Bihar. The companies were to test their innovations, such as
an afordable house concept based on aluminium house frame, in real life settings with local people having long
tradition of frugal innovation methods.
Finland and Finnish organisations are strong in innovation and scaling up the innovations into wide use. Many
globally leading and highly innovative Finnish companies are listed in this Business Guide.
Lets co-create solutions to the needs and problems of today and tomorrow!

Setting Up a Business in Finland
Business operations in Finland can be conducted as:
A private entrepreneur
A partnership
A limited liability company (formed by one or more individuals or legal entities)
A cooperative
A branch of a foreign company
Business can be carried on in Finland by a natural person who is resident of the European
Economic Area, Finnish organisation or foundation or a foreign organisation or foundation
which has established a branch in Finland, established under the laws of a country belonging
to the EEA and which has its registered ofce, central administration or principal place of
business in a country belonging to the EEA. Most businesses must be registered with the
Trade Register. Limited liability companies and co-operatives are among the most common
company forms that are created through registration. When determining the best suited form
of conducting business activities in Finland, the following points should be considered:
1. Number of Founders
Individual entrepreneurs can conduct business activities in the form of a single-member
company or as a private entrepreneur. Partnerships require minimum of two founders and
cooperatives, at least three founders. A limited liability company may be a single-member
company or may have several founders.
2. Required Capital
For setting up a limited liability company, a minimum share capital of EUR 2,500 is required.
There are no minimum capital requirements for cooperatives or general partnerships. For
limited partnerships, a monetary investment is needed from the silent partner.
3. Division of Responsibilities in the Enterprise
Private entrepreneurs, partners in general partnerships and general partners in limited
partnerships are responsible for any liabilities of the business with their personal property.
Shareholders in limited liability companies and members of cooperatives are responsible only
for the amount of capital they have invested.
FINLAND-INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13 l 15
16 l FINLAND-INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13
4. Flexibility of Activities
A private entrepreneur is able to make all decisions on his/her own, partners in a general partnership and general
partners in a limited partnership make decisions either jointly or solely, and limited liability companies are
represented by their Board of Directors. In cooperatives, decisions are based on one member-one vote principle,
irrespective of the amount of each members investment.
5. Continuity of Operations
In partnerships, if stated in the original agreement contract, the share of one partner can be transferred to
another person with the agreement of the other partners. In limited liability companies, shareholder changes
do not have an efect on the existence of the company. Memberships of a cooperative cannot be sold, but if a
sufcient level of unanimity is reached, the cooperative itself can be sold.
6. Proft Distribution and Loss Coverage
A private entrepreneur retains all profts but is also responsible for possible losses. In general partnerships,
profts and losses are distributed among the partners either as decreed by the law or as stated in the partnership
agreement. Silent partners in limited partnerships are paid a share of the proft stated in the partnership
agreement, but they do not contribute to the coverage of losses.
Limited liability companies pay their shareholders dividends, based on the amount of shares of each shareholder.
Dividends can be paid only from the profts of previous accounting periods or unrestricted shareholders equity
after subtracting possible losses. In a limited liability company, the shareholders are responsible for the losses
only for the amount they have invested, unless personal guarantees have been pledged for the companys debts.
The purpose of cooperatives is to provide services for their members, not obtaining proft as such. Surpluses can
however, be distributed to the members, for example, in the form of extra wages, after frst flling the reserve
requirements laid on the cooperative.
7. Taxation
Tax treatment varies depending on the form of the business, especially in regard to direct taxation. The joint
efect of tax burdens falling on the form of business and on the entrepreneur(s) determines the choice that is
most proftable in each specifc case.
Permits Required from Foreign Entrepreneurs
Non-EU citizens are allowed to stay in Finland with a tourist status for three months; however, if they wish to
work, they are requested to apply for a residence permit, even if the period of stay is for less than three months.
Entrepreneurs entering Finland with an entrepreneur status are requested to apply for an entrepreneurs
residence permit, while still outside Finland.

FINLAND-INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13 l 17
Setting Up a Business in India
A foreign company can set up business operations in India either as a foreign company by
establishing a liaison/representative ofce, project ofce or branch ofce or as a domestic
company through equity participation in a joint venture company or as a wholly-owned
subsidiary.
A foreign company is one that has been incorporated outside India and establishes a place of
business within India. Domestic companies are those incorporated in India. They are subject
to same rules and regulations as Indian companies.
Liaison/Representative Ofce
A foreign company can set up a liaison/representative ofce in India to collect data about
possible market opportunities, and provide information about the company and its products
to prospective Indian customers. Liaison ofce is allowed to represent the parent company
in India, promote export/import to/from India, promote technical or fnancial collaborations
between parent company and companies in India, and act as a communications channel.
Liaison ofce is not allowed to undertake any commercial, trading or industrial activity.
Additionally, its operations in India are to be met out of inward remittances received from
abroad.
The companies willing to open a liaison ofce have to make an application to the Reserve
Bank of India (RBI). The process of approval takes about three weeks. Permission to set up a
liaison ofce is usually granted for an initial period of three years, which may be extended
from time-to-time.
Project Ofce
A foreign company may open a project ofce in India provided it has secured from an Indian
company, a contract to execute a project in India. Since project ofces can be established
only for a limited period of time, it is usually companies engaged in turnkey or installation
projects that are setting them up. As per revised guidelines, recently issued by the RBI, no
prior approval is required for setting up a project ofce.
FINLAND-INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13 l 17
18 l FINLAND-INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13
Branch Ofce
Foreign companies manufacturing or trading abroad are permitted to set up branch ofces in India for export/
import of goods, rendering services, carrying out research work, promoting collaborations, representing the
parent company, and acting as a buying/selling agent in India.
Permission for setting up branch ofces is granted by the RBI on a case-to-case basis. Before granting the
approval, the RBI normally takes into consideration the operating history of the applicant company worldwide
and its proposed activities in India. The process of obtaining approval from the RBI takes about three weeks.
Wholly-owned Subsidiary
The frst step in the establishment of a wholly-owned subsidiary is to fnd out whether 100 per cent foreign
equity and entry through automatic route are allowed. This means that no prior government approval is required.
Nowadays, this is the case apart from a few sectors, which are either subject to Foreign Investment Promotion
Board (FIPB) approval or restricted altogether.
The norms for Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in India are governed by the Foreign Direct Investment Policy of the
Government of India, Foreign Exchange Management Act 1999 and the Foreign Exchange Management (Transfer
or issue of security by a person residing outside India) Regulations 2000 issued by the RBI.
For registration as an Indian company and its incorporation, an application has to be fled with the Registrar
of Companies (ROC). A private limited company in India requires a minimum of two shareholders and a public
limited company, a minimum of seven members. The minimum capitalisation norms for private and public
companies are ` 100,000 and ` 500,000 respectively.
Joint Venture
The same rules applicable to wholly-owned subsidiaries, apply to joint venture companies, the only diference
being the form of partnership between Indian and foreign companies. This is often a practical way to establish
a presence. Setting up of operations through a joint venture can entail advantages like established distribution
set-up, available fnancial resources and established contacts that help smoothen the process of setting up of
operations.

Finnish Companies in India
Currently there are more than 100 Finnish companies established in India and the number is constantly rising,
with an increasing number of investments in the past 4-5 years. Though Finnish companies are present mainly
as subsidiaries, but a few joint ventures or representative/liaison ofces are also there. These companies can be
clubbed into the following sectors: Software and Digital Media, Life Sciences, Energy and Environment Forestry,
Construction, Logistics and Machinery, and Services.
The major geographical concentration is around Delhi and National Capital Region (NCR), Mumbai, Navi
Mumbai, Pune, Chennai and Bengaluru. In addition, another 100 Finnish companies export their products to
India or operate in the market through local agents, representatives or importers.
FINLAND- INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13 l 41
Important Business
Sectors for
Indo-Finnish Cooperation
TELECOM
The Indian telecom sector is among the fastest growing in the world with 930 million wireless subscribers (31st May
2012) and corresponding teledensity of 76.68%. Mobile value added services have been a key growth driver over
the last few years with strong future growth expected in m-health, governance, commerce, banking, education
and entertainment; cloud-based applications will also witness substantial uptake. There is strong policy focus on
promotion of telecom R&D, aimed at making India a hub for telecom manufacturing by incentivising domestic
manufacturers with thrust on IPR, product development and commercialization, and also ofering preferential
market access for indigenously manufactured products. The Government aims to increase broadband access to
175 million and provide mobile access to all villages and rural teledensity of at least 60% by 2017.
IT-BPO
Indian IT-BPO constitutes 58% of the global sourcing industry in terms of market share. Aggregate revenues are
estimated to cross the USD 100 billion mark with exports at USD 69 billion (Source: Nasscom). The buzzword of the
decade is innovation with emphasis on new business and delivery models, new products and services, besides
the need to localize for the signifcant domestic market. India ofers signifcant advantages of skills availability
and cost efectiveness sustainable in the long term due to the young demographic profle of the country, in
addition to the rapidly expanding global delivery footprint and enhanced service delivery efciency. Other areas
showing signifcant growth and ofering opportunities to foreign companies are: IT Services (consulting, systems
integration, IT outsourcing/managed services/hosting services, training and support/maintenance); Engineering
and R&D Services; and Data Centre Services. The industry has also been moving towards Green IT, helping
customers lower their carbon footprint through adoption of environment-friendly technology.
Life Sciences
Healthcare market is one of the fastest growing markets in India. The Euro 25 billion industry is expected to
continue growing annually by 10-12 per cent and is thus, expected to reach over Euro 53 billion by 2012 and
Euro 108 billion by 2017. The sectors showing highest growth in demand are medical infrastructure, medical
equipment and medical textiles.
The Indian domestic pharmaceutical market is around Euro 7 billion, being one of the biggest sectors in Life
sciences. Growing number of the manufacturers have international quality certifcates. Medical diagnostics is an
interesting area for collaboration due to continuous market growth of 10-15 per cent per year, but also due to
opportunities in manufacturing or R&D collaboration. Clinical research services sector in India is growing annually
by 25 per cent and due to cost efciency it ofers an interesting opportunity for the Finnish manufacturers.
42 l FINLAND- INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13
India is gearing up to be the ultimate health tourism destination by upgrading the existing infrastructure to world
standards. The food industry is also interesting: the semi-processed and ready-to-eat packaged food industry is
growing at over 20 per cent a year. The retail sector is growing at 6 per cent. Value addition in food processing and
increased health awareness as well as demand for special foods, e.g. targeted for diabetics or persons with high
cholesterol create demand for smaller players with special products or ingredients. Food Safety and Standard
act which came into force in August 2011 will increase hygienic practices and control, thus creating demand of
tests and training.
Energy, Environment and Forestry
India ranks sixth in the world in total energy consumption and needs to accelerate the development of the sector
to reach the goal to provide energy security to all. The Indian energy basket has a mix of all the resources available
including renewables. In the 12th Five-Year Plan, India plans to add about 75785 MW of energy of which 82%
is proposed to be coal-based, with an estimated investment requirement of about 100 billion. The total fund
requirements for Generation, CPP, Repair and Maintenance, Transmission and Distribution, Renewables etc. is
estimated to be about 200 billion. Renewable energy sources are expected to add around 30500 MW of installed
capacity, whereas captive power plants are expected to add around 13000MW during this period. The lack of
availability of quality coal in the domestic market and increasing costs of imported coal has hit the Indian thermal
power producers in a big way in recent years. This has raised the interest levels among many key stakeholders in
the power sector to look at alternate sources of energy. Finnish companies, with their expertise in Cleantech and
other advanced energy management solutions have the opportunity to tap this promising sector. The main areas
ofering investment opportunities are a) Green energy or renewable energies like wind, solar, biofuel, small hydro
and alternative energy sources like waste to energy, b) Environment monitoring and measuring and industrial
pollution control, c) Clean manufacturing technologies in diferent sectors, d) Energy audit and efciency services,
e) Waste management especially solid and eWastes, f ) Clean water and sanitation, g) Carbon trading or CDM
opportunities, h) Green buildings, i) Know-how and equipment for the upcoming nuclear power generation
capacities, j) Power plant equipment and machinery, k) Transmission equipment and network automation.
FINLAND- INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13 l 43
India represents a key market for clean technology companies. India is investing billions into solar, wind, bio-
agriculture, desalination, recycling, water management, waste, and e-waste, calling for international partnerships.
The objective of the Indian government is to foster a second Green Revolution. There is a thrust in the 12th Five
Year Plan towards private investments in the use of clean energy. Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in environment
equipment and services is allowed under the automatic route with up to 100 percent foreign equity holding. The
main market drivers of the India Environment Market include stricter governmental regulations, growing public
awareness, depletion of natural resources, increasing human-environment conficts, rapid economic growth,
and the pressures from the global climate negotiations, which are leading to adoption of newer and cleaner
technologies, and a growing clean tech industry.
Major opportunities in the environment sector include wastewater treatment especially municipal sewage
treatment, clean water and sanitation, air pollution control, hazardous waste management, municipal solid
waste-to-energy/composts projects, environmental instrumentation, environmental monitoring, measuring and
industrial pollution control, clean manufacturing technologies in diferent sectors, energy audit and efciency
services, and consulting & training. The adoption of newer and cleaner technologies from Finland will help India
to leapfrog into a more sustainable growth pathway as the Indian economy grows rapidly.
India is a timber-defcient country. Given the decline in domestic production of industrial timber and the
growing demand for wood products, India ofers an enormous potential market for Finnish softwood, veneer,
thermo-treated wood and wood treatment machinery. Other potential areas are paper production technology
(equipment front); raw material handling, separation of pith and fbre technology (TECHNOLOGY front), tissue
culture lab; environment: energy efciency, waste management, training; Power generation: bio-methanation to
power; technology for value addition of paper products like coating of paper and innovative packaging.
Construction, Logistics and Machinery
Indias infrastructure opportunities will continue to be a priority for the economy and the Government in the
coming decade. The infrastructure sector accounts for more than 25 percent of Indias industrial output. The
infrastructure today in India ofers tremendous opportunities for industrial houses and foreign companies in
construction, logistics and machinery. Irrespective of global or slight domestic slowdown, the need to develop
the infrastructure in India has always been a top priority for government in power.
The strong level of economic growth achieved in India in recent years has led to an expansion of industry,
commerce and per-capita income, which, in turn, have fuelled the demand for infrastructure services. India is one
of the largest and most dynamic infrastructure and project fnance markets in the world with the total number of
project based Special Purpose Vehicles (SPVs) at around 800, according to Ratings Agency Fitch.
The investment in infrastructure is likely to touch 10 per cent of GDP in the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-2017). With
the increasing investment, the share of private sector in the total investment on infrastructure has increased
rapidly. The contribution of private sector in total infrastructure investment in each of the frst two years of 11th
Plan (2007-2012) was around 34 per cent. This is higher than the 11th Plan target of 30 per cent and 25 per cent
achieved in 10th Plan period. It is expected to rise to 36 per cent by the end of 11th Plan and 50 per cent during
the 12th Plan (2012-2017).
Public Private Partnership is encouraged by the Government to meet the infrastructure objectives and hence
there are many opportunities for the private players in Indian market. The sector does not have any restriction of
investment by a foreign company and foreign investment is encouraged in this sector. Companies with medium
to long term objective can grow manifold in this market as it ofers ample opportunities for growth.
44 l FINLAND- INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13
Construction & Mining
The mining sector, particularly in India, is getting more organised, structured and transparent than in the past. This
will allow more possibilities for international and domestic companies to participate in the mining opportunities.
Heavy machinery and component manufacturing industry, especially earth moving equipment machinery, has
a high demand in India.
Shipping
Indias Ministry of Shipping announced plans to carry out more than 22 new projects starting 2012. The projects
will involve an investment of more than INR160bn (US$3.21bn). The ministry is also discussing Land Use Policy
and Coastal Shipping. The Ministry of Shipping plans to invest US$ 13.45 billion for development of various
projects in the port sector as a part of the 12th Five Year Plan (2012-17).
Airports
Aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) sector is on a growth path in the country. The sector holds a lot
of opportunities for companies within the technical services outsourcing business domain. Passengers carried
by domestic airlines during Jan-Jun 2012 (half yearly) were 31 mn as against 29.8 mn during the corresponding
period of previous year, thereby registering a growth of 3.71 per cent, according to the latest data released by the
Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA). This is despite slowdown globally and slight in India too. The number
of scheduled passenger airline operators has grown to 15 and the number of aircraft in their feet has risen to
more than 400. International fights have increased to 706 fights per week. Due to enhanced opportunities for
international connectivity, 69 foreign airlines from 49 countries are fying into India.
Roadways
In March 2012, the Indian Government had launched an INR200bn (US$4bn) tender for 15 road infrastructure
projects under a design, build, operate, fnance and transfer (DBOFT) basis. 10 of the projects will involve the
widening of roads to four-lane highways, whilst a further three will see roads widened to six-lane highways.
E-Waste
As per the E-waste Management and Handling Rules 2011 which came into efect from May 1, 2012, it is now
the producers liability for recycling and reducing e-waste. These rules apply to every producer, consumer or
bulk consumer, collection centre, dismantler and recycler of e-waste involved in manufacture, sale, purchase
FINLAND- INDIA BUSINESS GUIDE 2012-13 l 45
and processing of electronic equipment or components. This also creates a tremendous market opportunity for
e-waste management service providers.
India as a Major Manufacturing Hub
India is being recognised as a destination for outsourcing of custom-based, high-technology manufacturing
activities. Although, India is more on service sector, the need to focus on manufacturing is emphasised and
manufacturing will gain momentum in the coming years.There are various incentives for manufacturing in India.
Logistics is a fast growing sector, with approximately 110 logistics parks and 45 million sq ft of warehousing space
to be developed across the country.
Services Education, Knowledge-Intensive Businesses, Design, Travel And Leisure, Well-
Being Services
With increasing afuence there is a rising demand in high end services especially in the sectors of Retail, Education,
Transportation and Construction.
Retail has seen revolutionary changes with radical policy changes and various players entering the organized
retail. The organized version of retail is poised for doubling the market size in the next 3-5 years.
High quality education is seen as a must not only in primary but also in vocational education. Finland has
opportunity in introducing innovative learning concepts not only at the primary level but also at higher academic
levels and in adult education. Private sector education would be the focus point.
The growing population demands better facilities for transportation and Indias cities and towns have been
evolving in this front. The utilization of better technologies and mechanisms to facilitate efcient transportation
is the need of the hour in terms of intelligent transport systems, integrated services, etc.
High-end construction especially the LEED certifed projects are much in demand in India and the construction
sector has grown by leaps and bounds. Green building technologies, building management systems, etc. are
some of the sub-sectors that have good potential.
Tourism between India and Finland is increasing, and Finland is also being marketed by Visit Finland as a
destination.
