EU-India FTA : TARIFF-IC Deal

While some countries are busy dusting off their tariff guns, India and the European Union are doing something refreshingly grown-up: talking trade and shaking hands.

The long-pending EU–India Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is back in the spotlight, and honestly, the timing couldn’t be better. Global trade is getting moody, supply chains are nervous, and everyone is looking for a stable dance partner. Enter: Europe and India.

Why This Deal Is a Big Deal

The EU is already India’s largest trading partner, and this FTA could make life easier and cheaper for Indian exporters. Think:

• Pharma

• IT services

• Engineering goods

• Textiles

• Green energy

  
  

Basically, everything that says “Made in India” but wants a European passport.

For Europe, India offers scale, talent, and a solid alternative to over-dependence on China. For India, Europe offers… well… people who buy expensive cheese and German cars.

Win-win.
