He added, “I think there is larger potential – I feel there’s a certain imbalance we see when we note Indian companies present in France. We have less than 100 Indian companies present in France and there is much more potential. Whereas, historically, French companies have been quite present in India – more than a thousand companies are present in India, with some of them being here for more than the last 100 years, some more than that as well. There are a lot of opportunities that Indian companies look at in France.”
“Today, we are in a situation where France has laid a red carpet for Indian investors. We should benefit from that. It’s not even restricted to certain industries – it’s now across France. Not just the Paris region, but more on the larger scale. For us, this is India moment in France. There is openness from France side and there is interest from Indian side also to collaborate more with France,” Ananda tools ANI.
