Namaste, India! Markit Expands to the World’s Fastest-Growing Tech Hub 

A Strategic Expansion Built on Trust and Adaptation

Our journey into India has been long, challenging - and deeply transformative.

India is unlike any market we’ve entered before. It demanded that we rethink and partially restructure our business model to align with a very different regulatory, operational, and cultural landscape. Doing business in India means learning an entirely new way of handling processes - and we embraced that with full dedication.

This launch is also a moment to acknowledge our global clients who believed in us, waited patiently, and encouraged us along the way. Your trust has been a driving force, and we’re truly grateful. We’re now proud to say: we’re here, and we’re ready.

We will take the necessary time to individually brief and onboard each of our existing clients, ensuring they receive the tailored guidance and support needed to succeed in this vibrant and complex region. Even with the immense effort it took to reach this point, we recognize there will be further challenges ahead - but we are fully committed, well-prepared, and confident in our ability to overcome them.

Here’s what our India launch means for Markit clients:

• Strategic Market Entry: With India being one of the largest and fastest-growing IT markets in the world, our presence allows us to better support global clients with regional operations and tailor solutions to local needs.
  
  
• Improved Service & Local Access: Clients with operations in India can now benefit from localized services, faster response times, and streamlined procurement processes through our marketplace.
  
  
• Cost & Operational Efficiency: India’s robust infrastructure, highly skilled talent pool, and favorable business conditions enable us to deliver efficient, cost-effective solutions - helping our clients reduce overheads and improve their bottom line.
  
  
• Enhanced Regional Support: With a dedicated local team and new capabilities, we’re strengthening our regional integration and offering deeper market intelligence to support client success in India and across South Asia.
  ​​​​​​​
• India-based companies, along with our multinational clients operating in the region, can now register and make immediate purchases through the Markit IT marketplace, available in English.

Getting here was not easy, but we are more committed than ever, ready to go the distance!
