 AMBASSADOR’S
MESSAGE
Vinay Mohan Kwatra
Ambassador of India in France
Dear friends,
New year greetings to all of you.
As we usher in 2018, we can feel the palpable
energy and the manifest promise of the Indian
economy. There are opportunities galore, waiting
to be harnessed. The international business
community realizes the importance of this
moment and is heavily investing in different
sectors of Indian economy. The Government
of India is proactively working towards making
the investment climate more and more business
friendly. This trend is being reflected in many
international rankings like India’s recent jump
by 30 places within a single year to reach the
100th position in World Bank’s 2017 ranking of
‘ease of doing business’. Similarly, the change
from 71st position three years ago to the highest
ever 40th position out of 137 countries in the
World Economic Forum’s competitiveness index
and upgradation of India’s sovereign bond rating
for the first time in nearly 14 years by Moody’s
are other testimonies to the fact. Projections
for India in 2018 also echo with this trend- be it
IMF’s 7.4% growth rate estimate as the fastest
growing economy or CEBR’s (UK based Economic
Consultancy) projection for India as the World’s
fifth largest economy ahead of UK and France.
It gives me great satisfaction to reiterate that
India and France enjoy a strategic partnership
and the economic and commercial cooperation
is a very important component of our bilateral
relations. There are unlimited synergies in
various sectors including defence, agricultural,
energy, transport and communication, space
and aviation and health to name a few. However,
our economic bilateral exchanges have much
more potential than that currently exists and
we look forward to improve, both the quality
and quantity of these exchanges.
Presence of French businesses in India is
significant and the presence of Indian businesses
in France is also on the rise. The Indian companies
present in France play a great role in strengthening
the Indo-French economic partnership and
bringing greater awareness about India in France,
especially in the business circles.
It gives me great pleasure to introduce to
you the directory of Indian businesses in France
and would like to extend my congratulations
to all those who became a part of this. This
is one of the efforts by the Embassy to
publicise the Indian business presence in
France. We remain very attentive to all your
suggestions on strengthening our bilateral
trade, commercial and economic cooperation.
