Before you sign

A background check on your Indian counterpart

A website, a brochure and a confident video call tell you very little. Before you send a deposit, ship a mould or sign a joint venture, it is worth knowing who is actually on the other side, and whether the factory in the photographs belongs to them.

What the registers say

Company master data from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs, incorporation date, registered address, paid-up capital, the directors and their identification numbers, charges registered against the company and whether annual filings are up to date. Plus GST registration, the import-export code if they claim to export, and cross-directorships.

What they would rather you did not find

Court and tribunal searches, insolvency proceedings, disqualified directors, and sanctions and politically-exposed-person screening. Our colleague Christy holds the CAMS qualification in anti-money-laundering, and our legal partner in Bengaluru handles what needs a lawyer.

Someone goes there

This is the part that decides it, and the part a database cannot do. We visit the address. Photographs, how many people actually work there, what machines are on the floor, whether the claimed capacity exists, and whether the registered office is a plant or a single room above a shop.

We report facts and name our sources. A background check is not a credit rating, not an audit and not legal advice, it is what a careful person would find out before committing money, gathered by people who are there.

Nancy James and Christoph Schuler
Why us

start local. THINK GLOBAL.

The same founders who bring Indian companies to Germany work the bridge in reverse, so when you go to India, you have someone who genuinely understands both systems.

  • Christoph Schuler: 15+ years at Mercedes (automotive R&D & management), international roles in Detroit & Bangalore, including two years as an expat in Bangalore.
  • Nancy James, born and raised in Bangalore; in Germany since 2017; speaks English plus many Indian languages.
  • A real, accountable team, not a faceless broker.
Arrange a consultation
One bridge. Both directions.

India isn't far when someone walks it with you.

We bring Indian founders to Germany and German companies to India, calmly, structurally, and with the cultural understanding that makes collaboration actually work.

FAQ

Germany → India, common questions

How do you find and vet partners in India?

We work with an established network on the ground in India and personally vet partners for reliability and fit. You get introductions to serious counterparts, not a random list.

Can you check an Indian company before we do business with them?

Yes, that is one of the things we are genuinely well placed to do. We pull the company master data from the Ministry of Corporate Affairs (incorporation, registered address, paid-up capital, directors, registered charges, whether annual filings are current), check GST and import-export registration, run court, insolvency and sanctions searches, and then somebody goes to the address and tells you what is actually there. The site visit is usually what settles the question. We report facts and name our sources; it is not a credit rating and not legal advice.

Can you help with recruitment of skilled workers from India?

Yes, seriously and compliantly. Recruitment, placement and visa matters are regulated, so we handle them together with the appropriate licensed partners while we manage the relationship and cultural bridge.

What kind of products or materials can you help source?

We help you identify reliable Indian suppliers and manage quality and communication. Tell us what you need and we'll map the realistic options.

Why work with you rather than going direct?

Because the gap is rarely the price, it's trust, communication and culture. We give you a German point of contact who understands India, so fewer things go wrong and decisions move faster.

What does it cost?

Every project is different, so we don't sell fixed packages. Tell us your goal in a free consultation and you'll get a clear, tailored proposal.
