Monsoons: Over half of India's population works in agriculture, and monsoon rains directly affect their incomes and livelihood. Agriculture adds up to more than 15% of India's Gross Domestic Product (GDP), which means that when crops fail because of too little rain, the economy suffers.
Tsunami: Immediately following a tsunami disaster, many businesses will be unable to trade because of destruction to premises, stock, machinery, facilities, transport networks, supplies and loss of staff.
Earthquakes: Earthquakes can topple buildings, destroy contents, and render information systems unusable. Roads, bridges, and other infrastructure may be damaged which can cripple businesses that rely on them such as transportation.
