Consumer Products - Ernst & Young - India

Whether it’s squeezed margins, brand erosion or new regulatory requirements, you need to think differently if your consumer products business is to prosper.

And if it’s fresh thinking you want, Ernst & Young can help.

We work with many of the world’s leading consumer products businesses in tackling their key strategic challenges.

We can help you achieve the best deals from transactions and increase the profitability of your brands. We can support you in driving down costs while improving productivity, to help you build a business that is sustainable in the long term. And we can help you manage risks and make the most of opportunities in emerging markets.

The consumer products sector in India has its own set of complexities. Gaining insight into consumer buying patterns, distribution inefficiencies, constraints in transport infrastructure and a largely underdeveloped logistical interface are just some of the challenges facing this industry. Given slim profit margins and large groups of price sensitive consumers, it is critical to have a streamlined tax structure, localise products and have in place sensitive pricing and branding strategies.

We bring together a worldwide team of professionals with deep technical experience in providing assurance, tax, transaction and advisory services. Our team engages with industry stakeholders through research, thought leadership and events to develop insights and services that meet your industry’s evolving requirements. So you get the understanding you need to compete powerfully in your market.
