India-UK Trade Pact Expected to Boost Exports to $115 Billion by 2030, Create Jobs
The India-UK free trade agreement, effective from July 15, is projected to nearly double bilateral trade to USD 115 billion by 2030, potentially creating 700,000 to 1 million jobs. Industry body Assocham highlights that sectors like engineering goods, textiles, pharmaceuticals, and automotive stand to benefit, especially MSMEs. However, realizing this potential requires Indian businesses to meet quality, certification, rules of origin, and sustainability standards, alongside improvements in ease of doing business, infrastructure, and supply chains.
