Ficci president: India-UK relationship—why the CETA will confer benefits well beyond trade

This pact grants 99% duty-free access for Indian exports, significantly benefiting sectors like textiles, apparel, and MSMEs by eliminating high tariffs. CETA strengthens partnerships in advanced manufacturing, technology, healthcare, and renewable energy, opening new growth avenues. It expands opportunities in services and reduces costs for professionals, reinforcing India's emergence as a trusted manufacturing, innovation, and investment hub. Success hinges on capitalizing on this dynamic economic partnership.
