Norway's Telenor, a major Norwegian telephone company has been investing in India, and became a major telephone company in India. Telenor has invested over 3 billion dollars in the Indian market, but had warned about "political implications" if this failed.[3]

In 2014, India and Norway signed 13 agreements to help strengthen the ties between India and Norway[4] as well as other Nordic nations.

Norway sees India as an important partner for economic development. India imported over 268.68 million dollars of goods from Norway while exporting to Norway over 82.3 million dollars of goods as of 2010 census,[5] but has since then diversifying it to reduce the trade balance.
