Enriched quality of life

 

 

India offers a multi-cultural, tolerant, inclusive, environment and well-developed social urban infrastructure with enabling environments for foreigners to settle and do business in the country. India has five major metros and many large cities that are fast finding a place on the world map.

The capital of India is Delhi - a unique amalgam of the modern tree lined avenues of “New” Delhi juxtaposed with the old-world charm of the old city. Delhi is the centre of national politics, international embassies and has one of the highest per capita income levels in India.

Mumbai (formerly Bombay) is the commercial capital of India and one of the largest cities in the world, supporting a population of over 16 million. It is also the fashion and entertainment capital of the country.

Bengaluru (formerly Bangalore), known as the Silicon Valley of India is the nerve-centre of the country’s software industry. It has also gained the reputation of one of the world’s prime Business Process Outsourcing centres.

Kolkata (formerly Calcutta) is one of the largest metropolitan cities of India with strong cultural and literary traditions and is home to many old businesses and trading houses.

Chennai (formerly Madras) is a traditional city in South India and with a large industrial base. It is home to many of India’s engineering and technical enterprises.

India is a country on the move! Hotels, clubs, shopping malls, golf courses, theatres, fast-food chains, fast cars ... all these define the pace, character and modernity of lifestyle in Indian cities. Indian cuisine is fast gaining popularity all over the world. International cuisines are also widely available and are received enthusiastically by the local population. Most large Indian cities have internationally recognised schools and colleges and world-class health care facilities.

In addition to extensive domestic connectivity, India is internationally well-connected by air and sea. All the major cities are on the international air routes, and international air traffic is growing rapidly.
