Two founders. Five questions. Three decades of building IKAN. We’re starting a new series with Rohit Kumar and Diwakar Gupta, Co-Founders of IKAN, where they answer the same five questions about each other, their working relationship, and what it really takes to build a business together. From what each one does best, to what they have learnt from each other, this series is a small window into a partnership that has shaped IKAN’s journey since 1996. What is one quality you think every strong founder partnership needs?

In global mobility, client service is rarely just about managing a checklist. It is about understanding the pressure behind every move, the timelines behind every decision, and the personal details that can make or break an assignee’s settling-in experience.

Meet Rajesh Yerra, Associate Director, Client Services at IKAN, based in Chennai.

With 13 years of experience in global mobility, Rajesh specialises in business development, destination services and immigration. What drew him to this space was the opportunity to meet people from different cultures, and what has kept him here is the constant learning that comes with every assignment.

One aspect he believes companies often underestimate is the importance of data protection, along with the complexity of school admission waitlists for expat children. Both can have a significant impact on how smoothly a family settles into a new city.

For Rajesh, relocation has also been a lesson in patience, empathy and understanding the human side of every move. Because behind every successful relocation is someone asking the right questions, anticipating the right challenges and staying close to the details.

What is one relocation detail you think companies should pay more attention to?

Mobility is changing, and so are the conversations around it.

On 20 August 2026, Rohit Kumar, Co-Founder & Jt. Managing Director, IKAN, will be joining industry leaders at The Global Mobility Forum 2026 – Gurgaon, hosted by ATMA at Courtyard Marriott, Gurugram.

The forum brings together mobility leaders, HR professionals, tax and compliance experts, and industry practitioners to discuss the trends and challenges shaping global mobility in India and across the world.

As mobility becomes more closely linked to talent strategy, compliance, technology, employee experience and business growth, forums like these are important spaces to exchange practical perspectives and ask sharper questions about where the industry is headed.

Looking forward to an insight-led day of conversations in Gurugram.

AI is becoming a serious conversation in global mobility. And while momentum is important, it also comes with a warning.

KPMG’s 2025 Global Mobility Benchmarking Report shows that 43% of mobility teams are already using AI for operational or ad hoc tasks, and 62% are planning technology investments in the next 12 to 18 months.The same report notes that 72% of organisations still rely largely on spreadsheets for mobility reporting and analytics. The biggest barriers include data spread across multiple systems, cost constraints, lack of data integrity and lack of analytics skills.

This is where mobility teams need to pause. AI can automate tasks. It can speed up cost projections. It can support payroll reconciliation. It can help make recommendations. But it cannot create clarity from fragmented, inconsistent or poorly governed data.

In global mobility, the invisible work often becomes the most strategic work. Clean systems. Clear processes. Defined use cases. Strong data ownership. Better visibility across stakeholders. That is what will separate AI adoption from real transformation.

The future of mobility will not be shaped by technology alone. It will be shaped by organisations that have done the work to make technology useful.

Is your mobility program investing in tools first, or building the foundation first?

For five years, the conversation about India as a mobility destination centred on four cities: Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Mumbai, Delhi NCR.

That conversation has moved.

Pune, Kochi, Coimbatore, Ahmedabad, and Chandigarh are now active GCC expansion markets. The organisations setting up in these cities are facing a mobility infrastructure that was not built for the volume they are bringing.

➡️ Housing inventory in established expat corridors does not yet exist at scale in Tier-2 markets. The verified, move-in-ready properties that international assignees expect are available. But finding them requires ground-level knowledge that remote sourcing cannot replicate.

➡️ Compliance requirements are the same everywhere in India. FRRO registration, Form C, PAN card sequencing. These are national requirements. But local FRRO office dynamics, documentation norms, and processing patterns vary significantly by city.

➡️ International school options in Tier-2 cities are more limited and more competitive. School search for families relocating to Pune or Kochi requires earlier planning and a deeper local brief than the same process in Bengaluru or Hyderabad.

➡️ The assignee experience in these markets is shaped almost entirely by ground-level support quality. There is less community infrastructure, fewer established expat networks, and a steeper initial adjustment curve. The programme design needs to account for this.


IKAN has been building destination services capability across India for 30 years. The expansion into Tier-2 markets is something we have been tracking and preparing for.

If your organisation is planning talent movement into cities outside the established corridors, our team can share what we know.

Rohan Baweja, Director – Move Management., has 25 years in global mobility. He leads move management operations at IKAN, overseeing household goods relocation, vendor coordination, and destination services support across domestic and international assignments.

For Rohan, the most underestimated part of relocation is not logistics. It is an adjustment.

The experience of arriving in a new city. Helping children settle into new schools. Building routines again. Feeling at home somewhere unfamiliar. That perspective is what has kept him in mobility for 25 years.

We asked him what the work has taught him. Here is what he told us:

➡️ Relocation is not about logistics. It is about helping individuals and families settle into new environments with confidence. That human element was what drew him in and it is what has kept him here.


➡️ The most underestimated part of any relocation is the emotional and cultural adjustment. The compliance checklist gets planned. The experience of landing in a new city, with a family looking to you for reassurance, is what most programmes do not adequately prepare people for.


➡️ What relocation teaches you about people goes beyond process. It shows you how differently people respond to change and how much empathy, patience, and clear communication can change the trajectory of a difficult move.

At IKAN, we believe expertise is built through experience. And sometimes, the best insights come from people who have spent decades understanding what a move really means beyond the checklist.

Every year, rankings tell us which cities are the most livable. What is more interesting is why.

Different geographies. Different cultures. Different economies. Yet they share remarkably similar strengths: safety, healthcare, infrastructure, connectivity, and quality of life.

In mobility, we often focus on the mechanics of a move. But rankings like these are a reminder that successful relocations are shaped by factors that extend far beyond visas and logistics.

The cities that attract global talent are often the ones that make everyday life easier, whether that is through better healthcare, shorter commutes, stronger public services, or a greater sense of security and belonging.

Perhaps that is why the most successful mobility programmes today are not just focused on where people need to move. They are focused on where people are most likely to thrive.

Which factor would matter most to you if you were relocating internationally?
