India–UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) Signed: Ushering in a New Era of Economic Cooperation
A significant milestone was reached today with the signing of the India–UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA)—marking the beginning of a new chapter in the robust economic partnership between our two nations. This landmark agreement reflects a shared commitment to strengthening bilateral trade, promoting inclusive growth, and unlocking opportunities across sectors.
CETA is set to empower key stakeholders—including farmers, women, youth, MSMEs, and professionals—while driving job creation and innovation. Labour-intensive industries such as textiles, leather & footwear, marine products, gems & jewellery, organic chemicals, plastics, auto components, artisanal goods, and various service sectors are expected to benefit significantly.
The agreement will serve as a catalyst for India’s ambitions to become a global manufacturing hub, aligning closely with the objectives of the ‘Make in India’ initiative. At the same time, it promises to deliver high-quality goods at competitive prices for Indian consumers.
As we look to the future, the India–UK CETA stands as a symbol of our deepening strategic and economic ties—laying the groundwork for shared prosperity, sustainable growth, and a dynamic global presence.
