Introduction
Multinational companies are the organizations or enterprises that manage production or
offer services in more than one country. And India has been the home to a number of
multinational companies.

And India has been the home to a number of multinational companies. In fact, since the
financial liberalization in the country in 1991, the number of multinational companies in
India has increased noticeably.

Though majority of the multinational companies in India are from the U.S., however one
can also find companies from other countries as well. The multinational companies in
India represent a diversified portfolio of companies from different countries.

Though the American companies - the majority of the MNC in India, account for about
37% of the turnover of the top 20 firms operating in India, but the scenario has changed a lot
off late. More enterprises from European Union like.
Definition And Meaning
A multinational corporation (MNC) or transnational corporation (TNC), also
called multinational enterprise (MNE), is a corporation or enterprise that
manages production or delivers services in more than one country.
It can also be referred as an international corporation.
ILO defined MNC as a corporation which has his managerial head quarters in one
country known as the home country and operates in several other countries known
as host countries.
The first modern MNC is generally thought to be the Poor Knights of Christ and
the Temple of Solomon, first endorsed by the pope in 1129. The key element of
transnational corporations was present even back then: the British East India
Company and Dutch East India Company were operating in different countries
than the ones where they had their headquarters.
Multinational corporations can have a powerful influence in local economies as well
as the world economy and play an important role in international
relations and globalization.
Why are Multinational Companies in India?

There are a number of reasons why the multinational companies are


coming down to India.
 India has got a huge market.
It has also got one of the fastest growing economies in the world.
Besides, the policy of the government towards FDI has also played a major role
in attracting the multinational companies in India. For quite a long time, India
had a restrictive policy in terms of foreign direct investment. As a result, there
was lesser number of companies that showed interest in investing in Indian
market. However, the scenario changed during the financial liberalization of
the country, especially after 1991. Government, nowadays, makes continuous
efforts to attract foreign investments by relaxing many of its policies.
As a result, a number of multinational companies have shown interest in
Indian market.

Business Etiquettes in India
Do use titles to address your Indian counterparts, such as “Professor” or “Doctor”. If
he/she does not have a title, use “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, or “Miss”.
Do wait for a female business colleague to initiate a greeting whether it is verbal or
physical. Indian men do not generally shake hands with women out of respect.
Do remain polite and honest at all times in order to prove that your objectives are
sincere.
Don't be take large or expensive gifts as this may cause embarrassment. If you do
take a gift make sure you present the gift with both hands.
Don't refuse aggressive in your business negotiations – it can be interpreted as a sign
of disrespect.
Don't take any food or drink offered to you during business meetings as this may
cause offence (sample small portions at least). In addition, it is useful to keep in
mind that traditionally, and religiously, majority of Indians are vegetarians and do
not drink alcohol or smoke.

Conclusion
The role and impact of multinational corporations, and the degree to which they can dictate
outcomes to their advantage, have evolved with the changes that have occurred over the last 50
years in the prevailing economic policy regime. In the post-war decades, multinational companies
enjoyed a profile and political significance that reflected policy-makers' belief that the future lay
with big organizations - in both the private sector and the public sector - that had outgrown market
forces and could control their own commercial environments. The disappointing outcomes of this
approach have served to show that 'bigness' in itself confers no competitive advantage. 
We have consequently moved away from misconceived policies of corporatism and
dirigisme to an understanding of the causes of the wealth of nations which tells us that
multinational companies are, broadly speaking, as subject to market forces (and also to political
forces) as other producers. They are important players, but not necessarily more important, for
good or ill, than other economic entities that evolve spontaneously. We have learned that big is not
necessarily best: consumers' interests are served simply by efficient businesses, and these vary
enormously in size. Equally, our present understanding of public policy shows us how governments
can promote (or, if they insist, undermine) the potential benefits of the international activities of
businesses.
