India and UK trade ministers are developing a roadmap to implement their new Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA). The historic deal, signed in July, aims to significantly boost bilateral trade. British Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently led a delegation to "turbocharge" the agreement, which will see tariffs cut on goods like Scotch whisky and textiles. The FTA is projected to increase UK exports to India by nearly 60% and raise bilateral trade by over £25 billion annually, serving as a "launchpad for growth" for both economies.
