Global Indian Leaders of The Year 2023 as per World Brand Affairs

<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=mexico">Mexico</a> is around 12,000 nautical miles away from India but has bridged the distance and is set to become the biggest export market for <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=indian+car+industry">Indian carmakers</a> this fiscal.<br />
 <br />
The Central American country gets one-fifth of all <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=car+exports">cars shipped out of India</a>, becoming the topmost overseas market for India-made cars this year, by importing about 1.3 lakh vehicles.<br />
 <br />
As per reports, car exports to Mexico will go up by over 50% to 1.32 lakh units in 2015-16, as against 82,000 vehicles for the same period last year.<br />
 <br />
Economic Times reported <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=volkswagen">Volkswagen</a> alone is expected to ship more than 55,000 cars from India to Mexico and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=general+motors">General Motors</a> will export over 45,000 units of Beat small car, which is sold as Spark in that market.<br />
 <br />
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=hyundai">Hyundai</a>'s i10 Grand and Xcent, Ford's Figo and Figo Aspire, and <a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=maruti">Maruti</a> Suzuki's Ciaz are among the other Indian cars headed for Mexico.<br />
 <br /> "Mexico is the most important and largest export market for <keyword id="159682" type="COMPANY" weightage="100" keywordseo="Volkswagen-India">Volkswagen India</keyword>. In 2014, we shipped approximately 55,000 cars to Mexico. In 2015, we expect to ship slightly higher number to Mexico," one of the persons associated with the matter told ET.<br />
 <br />
Despite freight cost plus import duty of 20%, the likes of Volkswagen India and General Motors India have allocated large batches of cars from the country to Mexico to gain from economies of scale and cost advantage in the country that is about 20%-30%.<br />
 <br />
Gaurav Vangaal, senior analyst, forecasting, at IHS Automotive, told the financial daily the booming demand in Mexico is a blessing in disguise for some carmakers that were unable to utilise their production capacity due to slow demand.<br />
 <br />
Rakesh Srivastava, senior VP for sales and marketing at Hyundai Motor India, told ET his company plans to raise exports to Mexico by 37% in 2015 and ship over 12,500 cars.<br />
 <br />
<a href="http://www.businessinsider.in/searchresult.cms?query=nissan">Nissan</a> is the market leader in Mexico, followed by GM and VW. Mid-size sedans like Nissan Sunny, Volkswagen Vento and Ford Fiesta make up for over 10% of the market at approximately 1.2 lakh units.<br />
 <br />
Another factor is that Mexico's currency is weakening, making its imports expensive. The Mexican Peso has moved up to 16.26 against the US dollar from 12.65 in 2012.<br />
 <br />

Unbelievable, but true! Mexico is India’s largest car export market in the world

Look at all your options.</h3><p>Quora user <a href="https://www.quora.com/profile/Saran-Udayakumar">Saran Udayakumar</a>, who has 45,000 miles in the sky under his belt, says that when he's booking flights he makes sure to check travel search engines like <a href="https://www.kayak.com/flights">Kayak</a>, <a href="https://www.priceline.com/">Priceline</a>, and <a href="https://www.skyscanner.com/">Skyscanner</a>, <em>as well</em> as airlines' websites.</p><p>Going that extra step ensures getting the best deal out there. Plus, many travel search engines allow you to set price alerts for certain flights, which is a great way to keep track of fares.</p><p>However, keep in mind that when you book directly through an airline's website and your flight gets canceled, you'll have an easier time dealing with the airline - and getting rebooked - than you would if you had booked through a travel search engine.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/jRlslrpk6ek">Robert G Allen Photography / Unsplash</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>2. Don't be opposed to layovers.</h3><p>This may seem like an obvious one, but nonstop flights are typically more expensive than flights with layovers. So if you're looking for the cheapest possible option, Udayakumar says to consider booking a flight with a layover.</p><p>Even better, look for a layover that's long enough to allow you to leave the airport - it's like taking two trips in one.</p><h3>3. Clear your cookies or open an incognito tab before booking.</h3><p>According to Udayakumar, travel agencies and airlines often use your computer's cookies to determine what kind of flight you're interested in booking. Once they discover what you're looking for, they'll often raise prices accordingly.</p><p>To prevent this from happening, you can either clear your browser cache or just open an incognito tab before starting the booking process.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/OiiThC8Wf68">Matthew Smith / Unsplash</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>4. Book a connection you know you're not going to make.</h3><p>This hack is better suited for risk takers, as it involves gambling with airlines. Udayakumar suggests booking a cheap flight with a super short connection time that's almost impossible to make.</p><p>Before you even board your first flight, tell a gate agent that you're worried about not making your connection, and ask them if they can rebook you onto a (more expensive) direct flight to your destination.</p><p>If it works, you just scored yourself a direct flight for a great price. If it doesn't, well, you're stuck with a connection you probably won't make.</p><h3>5. Don't only rely on big-name airlines when flying internationally.</h3><p>According to Quora user <a href="https://www.quora.com/profile/Patrick-Keane-1">Patrick Keane</a>, a frequent flyer with Star Alliance and a Lufthansa eXperts member, some airlines you probably haven't heard often offer the cheapest fares for transatlantic flights.</p><p>Keane suggests checking <a href="https://wowair.us/">WOW Air</a>, <a href="http://www.norwegian.com/us/">Norwegian</a>, and <a href="http://www.xl.com/en/">XL Airways France</a>.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span>Flickr / Erich Stüssi</span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>6. Fake your computer's IP address to fudge your location.</h3><p>Flight prices differ widely from country to country, says Quora user and avid traveler <a href="https://www.quora.com/profile/Anya-Mary">Anya Mary</a>. Often <a href="http://www.thisisinsider.com/travel-hacks-for-frequent-fliers-2016-9">fares are cheaper in countries with lower living standards</a>, so pretending you're booking from, say, India, instead of the US, can make all the difference.</p><p>There are two ways to go about this. Let's say you're flying from LA to Delhi, you can either go to www.airindia.in (instead of <span>www.airindia</span>.com) - this also works for travel search engine sites - or mask your computer's IP address by using an Indian VPN to make it seem like you're located in India. Just know that you'll be purchasing that flight in rupees, so make sure to use a card without foreign transaction fees.</p><p>There is also the risk of accidentally booking a "resident-only" fare - meaning it can only be used by locals - but more often than not nobody checks to make sure that you are, in fact, a local.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="https://unsplash.com/search/airport?photo=pGcqw1ARGyg">Ashim D'Silva / Unsplash</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>7. Book a flight with a layover that's actually your end destination.</h3><p>Quora user <a href="https://www.quora.com/profile/Gaurav-Srivastava-260">Gaurav Srivastava</a> refers to this hack as "hidden city ticketing." Here's the example Srivastava uses to explain the trick: Say you're flying from New York to Chicago and you find a cheap flight that goes from New York to Kentucky, but with a layover in Chicago (chances are a flight like this will be cheaper than a nonstop flight from New York to Chicago). Book that flight and then just disembark in Chicago (don't board the connecting flight to Kentucky).</p><p><span></span>While doing this isn't technically illegal, many airlines don't allow it, and will even fine you. There are websites t<span>o help you uncover these layovers (like <a href="https://skiplagged.com">skiplagged.com</a> ), but make sure not to get caught, as airlines could also cancel your return trip. Plus, make sure not to</span><span> check any bags.</span></p><h3>8. Look out for "fifth-freedom flights."</h3><p>Srivastava explains that the "fifth freedom refers to the right for an airline to carry revenue traffic between two foreign countries as part of a service connecting the airline's home country."</p><p>Here's what that means in layman's terms: Generally, airlines fly between their home country and other countries, but occasionally, because of layovers, they will have flights between two foreign countries. For example, a flight operated by Singapore Airlines from New York to Singapore with a layover in Frankfurt is a fifth freedom flight, because neither New York nor Frankfurt are the airline's home country (that would be Singapore).</p><p>Why look out for these? While not necessarily cheaper, <a href="http://maphappy.org/2015/02/explaining-fifth-freedom-flights-and-why-theyre-great/">they are often better airlines and newer airplanes</a> than what you would usually find on these routes.</p><p>Airlines are usually not allowed to list these fares on their website or on travel search engines, however, <a href="https://www.flypointyend.com/">Fly Pointy End</a> has a comprehensive <a href="https://www.flypointyend.com/5th-freedom-flights/">list</a> of such flights.</p><p><div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="https://unsplash.com/photos/9xdho4stJQ8">Skyler Smith / Unsplash</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>9. Book an early flight when you can.</h3><p>Turns out waking up at the crack of dawn for an early flight is worth it. Quora user <a href="https://www.quora.com/profile/Dan-Birchall-5">Dan Birchall</a> highlights a few reasons why.</p><p>First, if your flight is canceled you can easily be moved to a later flight. If you book the last flight of the day and it gets canceled, you're stuck until the next day.</p><p>Second, if you book a flight that gets you to your destination early, and that flight is oversold, you can <a href="http://www.thisisinsider.com/why-you-should-volunteer-to-get-bumped-off-a-flight-2016-8">volunteer to get bumped</a>, and then get rebooked onto a later flight, while also receiving <span>flight vouchers, upgrades, lounge access, or even cash</span>.</p><h3>10. Consider booking one way tickets and flying into and out of different cities.</h3><p>While booking a round trip ticket in and out of the same city might seem like the easiest, most logical way to go, Quora user <a href="https://www.quora.com/profile/Jeff-Mccoy-13">Jeff Mccoy</a> says that it's not always the cheapest. Sometimes, booking two one way tickets that arrive in and depart from different cities can save you a lot of money.</p><p>For example, let's say you're flying from Chicago to Düsseldorf, Germany. Maybe you fly into Düsseldorf, but then fly back to Chicago out of Cologne, since the two airports are only about a 45 minute drive from each other. So make sure to always research nearby airports.<div class="KonaFilter image-container display-table"><div><div class="image on-image"><p class="source"><span><a href="https://unsplash.com/search/traveler?photo=tTfDMaRq-FE">Suhyeon Choi / Unsplash</a></span></p></div><p></p></div></div></p><h3>11. Search for one-person flights even if you're booking for multiple people.</h3><p>If the first search you perform for a flight is for multiple seats, the airline might hike up prices, McCoy says. So instead, start by searching for a flight for just one person, and look into booking for multiple people later.</p><h3>12. Use Points Loyalty Wallet to trade and/or buy points and miles.</h3><p>"Trading or buying a few extra miles might be all you need to earn a travel reward," McCoy says. <a href="https://www.points.com/">Points Loyalty Wallet</a> lets you do both of those things, and it's worth checking out.</p>    <div class="margin-top">        <h3>NOW WATCH: <a href="http://www.businessinsider.com/sneakers-change-color-different-temperatures-2016-12">These sneakers change color in different temperatures</a></h3>        <div>            <div>        <div class="ooyala-video-player" data-video-autoplay="false" data-video-id="A2d2xuODE6sWmi1CBnB8wwTlJCMmFica" data-player-variable="ooyalapopvideo" id="ooyalaplayer_popvideo" style="width:1280px;height:720px"></div>        </div>        </div>            </div>
