The caste system, for example, is a direct result of Hinduism. This belief is still prevalent among the people of India and has been influential in the way the business operates today. Indians also believe in trait destiny and karma beliefs, which believe that whatever happens is reasonable. These attitudes also influence timing issues. Therefore, many Indian companies will not promptly participate in agreed business negotiations.
