India is one of Bavaria’s most important trading partners in Asia, as the annual volume of trade—some €2.1 billion in 2010—details. With some 7,000 resident Indians—of them some 3,000 in Munich—Bavaria has one of Germany’s largest Indian communities. In 2002, India commissioned its consulate general in Munich.
