BANGALORE, India and TOKYO, November 19, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --
Expansion across India made simple; Japanese firms get robust IT
infrastructure in just eight weeks
Infosys, a global leader in consulting and technology, today announced the launch of a
new solution called "India in a Box" for its Japanese clients. The new solution is based
on industry-standard Microsoft Dynamics NAV. It enables Japanese companies to jumpstart
their business operations in India in a shorter time by moving to a robust IT
infrastructure in just eight weeks. The pre-packaged solution is tailor-made for the
unique Indian market, addressing issues such as local taxation and accounting.
Key functionalities of the solution tailored for specific requirements in India
include:

Committee and complies with Indian GAAP (general accounting, account
receivable/payable, budget control, fixed asset management, period-end closing
operations).
- Supply Chain Management - To facilitate sales, purchasing, inventory,
warehouse management.
- Production Management- To track requirement planning and bill of materials,
manufacturing order creation, production planning and processes and scheduling.

Tomoyuki Nakanishi, Group Senior Manager, Dynamics Product Group, Microsoft Japan,
said: "Japanese firms are looking to grow in India, which is why 'India in a Box' is such
a valuable resource. What used to take years - learning how to navigate the
often-complicated Indian marketplace - now takes a matter of weeks. Japanese companies can
use this innovative Infosys product as their all-in-one business solution."
V. Sriram, Head of Japan, Infosys Ltd., said: "With this new solution Infosys has
tried to address one of the biggest issues facing Japanese companies entering the Indian
market: The sometimes rocky interface between a new location and Tokyo headquarters. With
'India in a Box,' firms can easily establish the interface with the Enterprise Resource
Planning in the home office. Executives in Tokyo can manage the sales and production of
their Indian operations on a daily basis without a hitch. 'India in a Box' is all about
improving real time decision-making and governance."
Infosys set up its Japan operations in 1997. Today it has offices in Tokyo and Nagoya
