When and how the relations began in the historical process, the reasons for and the details of the process that led the Armenians to India, as well as the formation stages of the Armenian settlement centers in India will be discussed. In addition, the cities with the densest Armenian settlements and the social, political, religious, and commercial activities of the Armenians there will be discussed in detail. Information on the commercial and military foundations of today's relations will be presented. In the light of all this information, an attempt will be made to present a holistic perspective on Indo-Armenian relations.
