The four trade events.
The clearest leading indicators in Indian B2B. A company filing its first shipping bill, or shipping to a country it has never served before, is in the market for a CHA, a freight forwarder, a forex line, and a trade-finance partner within the next 30 days.
01
First export
IEC is now active and a shipping bill has been filed against it. Strongest signal for trade-services prospecting.
02
New destination
Existing exporter ships to a country not seen in the prior 24 months. Triggers logistics, banking, and compliance needs.
03
New HS code
Exporter ships a product line they have not exported before. Adjacent-product expansion event.
04
Volume surge
Quarterly export volume up materially against the trailing baseline. Likely working-capital or warehousing event.

Built for trade-services teams who price intent at the shipment level.
CHA firms, freight forwarders, trade-finance NBFCs, forex providers, export-credit insurers, customs consultants. None of these teams have a working live feed of Indian exporter activity today. Their CRMs run on stale exhibition lists and scraped IndiaMART sellers.
Kestrel's trade module is the feed that fixes this. Filter by HS chapter, by destination, by port, by volume band. Save the filter. Get a Slack or email notification when an exporter triggers your filter for the first time.
