India & UK Marching Hand-in-Hand with Shared Goals The two significant aspects which bind the two nations together are that both India and the UK are vibrant democracies and leading economies of the world. Both nations have made impressive advances in human resources, manufacturing, innovation, science& technology, education, research, fintech, space, defence, emerging and green technologies, clean energy, among others. Both hold immense potential to address global challenges pertaining to climate, security, terrorism and pandemics. Under the '2030 vision,' India and the UK intend to forge a partnership that is mutually beneficial for both countries. They aim for revitalised and dynamic connections between their people; re-energised trade, investment and technological collaboration that improves their lives and livelihoods. They are also looking forward to enhancing defence and security cooperation, thereby facilitating a more secure Indian Ocean and Indo-Pacific Region. Primarily, they intend to collaborate in the broad spheres of climate, clean energy and health. The Upcoming INDIA-UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA) India and the United Kingdom (UK) formally launched negotiations for an ambitious Free Trade Agreement on 13th January '22 in New Delhi. The nations aim to reach an interim agreement by mid-April and subsequently a comprehensive deal by the end of the year. It is estimated that the FTA could double the bilateral trade to $100 billion by 2030. The Indian Minister of Commerce & Industry, Shri Piyush Goyal, and his British counterpart Ms. Anne-Marie Trevelyan jointly launched the talks for the FTA, which is being touted as India's deepest trade deal to date. The UK has been actively seeking new trade partners after Brexit and concluded its first trade deal with Australia in December '21. India is UK's third-largest exports market for Scotch whisky by volume after France and the US. The UK hopes that India will drastically cut its 150 per cent basic Customs duty on Scotch whisky under the FTA, which would widely open up the market. India seeks to gain from tariff reduction in labour-intensive sectors such as textiles, leather, jewellery, apart from cereals and pharma products.
