IndiansinTurkey are a small community numbering 300 and comprising roughly 100 families.[1][2] Most of them work as doctors and computer engineers or employees in multinational corporations.[2] India also has a small business presence in Turkey through representative offices of Reliance Industries, Tata Motors and Indorama.
Most Indians are Hindu and the community forms the bulk of Hindus in Turkey. In recent times, there have been efforts to promote tourism and culture from India as a means of developing the community and establishing better relations with Turkish society.[2] There are also Hyderabadi Muslims students in Turkey[3] and Sikhs in Turkey.[4]
Marriages between Indian men and Turkish women are not uncommon.[5][6]
