India and the UK have signed a major Free Trade Agreement in London. The deal cuts import duties on British goods like whisky, chocolates, cars, and cosmetics. Indian exports like textiles, seafood, and software services will get near-zero duty access to the UK. The agreement also helps Indian workers with relaxed visa rules and no social security payments for short UK stays. Freelancers, chefs, and IT workers will gain new job options. British firms can now bid on big Indian government projects. Both countries expect more trade, jobs, and investment, calling this deal a big step for future cooperation. (PC: India Today)
