Summary

India and the European Union have finished legal scrubbing of their trade pact. This significant agreement is expected to be signed sometime this year. Ninety-three percent of Indian shipments will gain duty-free access to the EU bloc. Luxury cars and wines imported from the EU will also become less expensive. Together, India and the EU represent a quarter of global GDP.
