An independent Australia–India trade platform

Bridging Australia and India's strongest industries

Austrindia is a digital gateway that connects Australian and Indian enterprises — helping you find partners, enter new markets and turn bilateral opportunity into signed commercial outcomes.

Two-way trade reached A$54.4 billion in 2024–25 — and the corridor is only warming up.

The Maitri model

Inspired by Maitri. Built for commerce.

Austrindia is an independent commercial enterprise. It is not endorsed by, or affiliated with, the Australian Government, DFAT, Austrade or the Centre for Australia–India Relations.

Australia's Maitri programme showed what happens when business, research, education and culture move together between our two countries. Austrindia takes that spirit and builds the permanent commercial infrastructure beneath it — a place where relationships become transactions.

The 2026–27 Maitri Grant round opened on 5 November 2026, offering grants from A$75,000 to A$800,000 with up to A$7 million available for activities delivered over three years. We watch that agenda closely — and we complement it with something the grants alone can't deliver: a standing marketplace where Australian and Indian businesses find each other every day of the year.

Membership

Whether you're an Australian exporter looking east or an Indian enterprise expanding south, Austrindia gives you the network, the market intelligence and the introductions to move first.
