Italy

Golden Goose sneakers say Made in Italy. We trace the brand’s wholly owned Indian subsidiary, its India web store selling from Milan and its Myntra shelf.

FILA brand audit: in India FILA is Metro Brands’ licence, and all 40 Myntra listings read on 21 September 2026 declared India as origin, at a median ₹3,872.

Who owns Armani Exchange watches, how Fossil makes them under licence, who imports them into India, where they are made, what they cost on armaniexchange.in and Myntra, and what the two-year warranty covers.

Who owns Gucci and what Kering publishes about it, why India is not one of the 44 country sites on gucci.com, who sells and imports the 717 Myntra listings, what the shelf costs here, the two origin clauses that do not agree, and what the house will and will not check.

Who owns Prada and what its filings publish brand by brand, why the house has no Indian website, store or active Indian company, who sells and imports the 839 Myntra listings, where the bags are made against a product page that says only “Imported”, and what the Bombay High Court decided in July 2025.

Who owns Bottega Veneta, the FY2025 revenue and margin Kering published before it stopped breaking out Houses, why there is no Indian website, price or marketplace shelf, where the bags are made, and what the Certificate of Craft actually covers.

LVMH names Fendi in every filing and publishes no Fendi figure at all. In India the Roman house runs no website, keeps no boutique and has no company on the register — yet 278 listings traded under its name on Myntra on 24 September 2026, sold by one Delhi company and imported by another.
