India and Germany share a history of almost 500 years of trade and economic relations. In addition to the growth in bilateral commerce, German and Indian businesses have found new avenues for investment and business in India. The first German ships to reach Goa were financed by Augsburg trader and banker Jakob Fugger in the 16th century, paving the way for trade between Germany and India. Several German companies were founded in the 16th and 18th centuries to engage in
trade with India and other East Asian nations. The German business Siemens constructed the first telegraph line between Kolkata and London, via Berlin in the 19th century.
The success story has continued recently as both nations deepen their commercial ties. India, one of the economies with the quickest rate of growth in the world, thus presents several prospects for German businesses. Approximately 400.000 direct and indirect employment are currently being produced in India by more than 1700 German businesses. Germany ranks among India’s top 10 worldwide trading partners and is the country’s largest trading partner in Europe. In 2016, the amount of bilateral commerce between Germany and India exceeded EUR 17.4 billion. Since January 2000, Germany has been India’s 7th largest investor in foreign direct investment.
