Many businesses and professionals are already listed on KERALA.GLOBAL, either created by our team using publicly available information, imported from our previous platform Malayalam CA, or added through our database building efforts. If you discover your business is already on our site, claiming your listing gives you control to update information, add services, and respond to community inquiries. The video below demonstrates the simple claiming process, which verifies your ownership and grants you full editing privileges. Once claimed, the listing will be permanently associated with your account, allowing you to edit and update all information independently without requiring our assistance. This self-service approach ensures your profile always reflects the most current details about your business or professional services.
