"United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer has arrived in India with a sprawling delegation of leading British CEOs, entrepreneurs and university vice-chancellors on a visit his government says is intended to turbocharge trade between the countries. The two-day trade mission to India, which began in Mumbai on Wednesday, is intended to promote trade and business opportunities between India and the UK"
"Announcing the visit, Starmer said the mission was intended to build on a recent landmark trade deal. We signed a major trade deal with India in July the best secured by any country but the story doesn't stop there, he said in a statement. It's not just a piece of paper, it's a launchpad for growth. With India set to be the third biggest economy in the world by 2028, and trade with them about to become quicker and cheaper,"
Keir Starmer arrived in India with a wide delegation of British CEOs, entrepreneurs and university leaders on a two-day trade mission based in Mumbai. The mission aims to promote trade and business opportunities between India and the UK as both economies realign trading relationships following US tariff actions. The US imposed 50 percent tariffs on Indian goods in August over New Delhi's trade with Russia; the UK has faced smaller tariffs despite a May US trade deal. Trade between India and the UK is worth $54.8bn and supports over 600,000 jobs. Narendra Modi is due to meet Starmer and they will address a fintech conference in Mumbai.
