India-UK FTA within finger-touching distance: NITI Aayog CEO

The Free Trade Agreement (FTA) between India and the UK is nearing completion, with both sides just a step away from finalizing the deal, according to NITI Aayog CEO B.V.R. Subrahmanyam. Negotiations for the FTA, which began in January 2022 and were paused due to elections in both countries, aim to significantly boost the existing GBP 38.1 billion annual bilateral trade.
