Price(ing)Indians are price sensitive, but are willing to pay for high quality. Understanding this paradigm will allow you to price your product well and still make a good margin!

IndiansWill fight with an auto rickshaw driver over five rupees, but will not allow their friends to pick up a restaurant bill for five thousand rupees!

Understanding Indian Prices Local quality is “bad, imported quality is
“good” (premium prices accepted) Interest rates are high, bank loans are
hard to get (customers require credit) Tax compliance is tough (optimize your
supply chain) After sales service/installation is
important (offer it!)

The Indian Tax SystemType Goods Similar to Services Similar
toTax VAT (12-
14%)CST (2%)Octroi (5%)
BTWImport DutyImport Duty
Service Tax (ST)
BTW
Related Maximum Retail Price (MRP): set by manufacturer or Importer
Tax Deducted from Source (TDS) functions like ICP in Europe
Awaited
Goods and Services Tax (GST) to unify all of the above.

Implications of the Indian Tax System MRP sets a maximum While VAT varies from state to state Octroi only in Maharashtra (and
unconstitutional!) CST has compounding effect ST to manufacturer has a compounding
effect

Speak the same language! 25% margin retailer: mark-down,
including taxes 20% margin distributor: mark-up,
excluding taxes 30% discount to distributor: 30% discount
on end price, hence a mark-down Negotiations will very often be about
which definition is being used, who pays for VAT, CST, Octroi, Transport, etc.

PromotionsOnce you have set your price, your supply chain, and made a decision on production, you are ready to promote your products in India.

Promotions and Business Development
Options Exhibitions (together
with your distributors/agents/sales managers!)
Extensive travel/meeting the clients
PR/Marketing: is relatively cost effective
Insights Use English on packing,
unless you sell in rural areas or to lower middle class
Send a hard copy folder, rather then an email
Call (or ask your sales manager to call)!
