I am trying to start a business in jewelry and clothes from India. I do not know how and where to start from. I want to make sure I have all the necessary licenses or documents that I may need in order to do this... please advice.

Where do I start from?

Which licenses do I may need?

Any legal documents I may require to prove that I do have a small business in items such as jewelry, clothes home decor, etc. The jewelry is all artificial and clothes are our everyday usage type, nothing pricey or outrageous.

All answers are welcome – thanks for your time.

There is some information on India business at the following link.
