Sector research that ends in a working system, not a slide deck.
Six deep-dives into the Indian sectors we build for — manufacturing, retail, healthcare, legal and professional services, logistics and financial services. Market data is quoted from named public sources with the year it refers to, and where sources disagree we show both rather than picking quietly.
The research and the build are usually two different companies.
Firms like Deloitte, BCG, Bain, KPMG and McKinsey produce genuinely excellent India research. India’s trade bodies publish alongside consulting research, and we credit whoever published each figure.
What we do differently is narrower: we do not stop at the recommendation. The same team that writes the analysis builds and runs the software that acts on it. Thirteen products of our own, in production. That is the entire distinction we are claiming — not better analysis, but analysis that arrives attached to a system.
Six sectors, read properly

Named source or it does not run
Every figure carries the body that published it. If we cannot attribute a number, we leave it out.
Dates on everything
A 2021 figure presented as current is misleading. Where a source publishes an undated figure, we label it undated.
Rupees where conversions disagree
Several public datasets carry inconsistent dollar conversions. Where that happens we quote the rupee figure and say why.
We flag our sources’ own errors
Where a published dataset contradicts itself, we note the contradiction rather than pick the flattering number.
