GREETINGS FROM JCCII PRESIDENT

April 2023

Hello Everyone, I am Takuro HORIKOSHI from Sumitomo Corporation India Pvt. Ltd (“SCIN”) and honored to be appointed as the President of Japan Chamber of Commerce and Industry in India (“JCCII”) in FY2023. I understand the important responsibility of this role and your kind support is highly appreciated.

I was appointed SCIN’s Chairman & Managing Director just 2 years ago during the second wave of COVID pandemic in India in April 2021. In my first year, the various activities finally resumed and improved the situation from the severe battles against COVID due to enhanced vaccination programs. During my second year, interactions resumed and we celebrated the 70th anniversary of the establishment of diplomatic relations between Japan and India.

This is my third year and I feel the time has finally come for India to blossom. Although the world is in the midst of increasingly accelerating geopolitical difficulties, I foresee that it is finally beginning to show India’s potential in both politics and economics. The Indian population will overtake that of China by the middle of this year, the India’s GDP growth ratio of last year was 6.7%, which could surpass the GDP of United Kingdom and it is expected to surpass that of Japan in four years. There is no doubt that we realize the growth of this huge country as we see more articles about India in newspapers of Japan. I cannot help but being excited to be and live here in India at this moment and work on business with you.
