Deal with India and EU and Britain

Under this agreement, 93 percent of goods going from India will get duty-free entry into the 27-nation bloc, while luxury cars and wines coming from the EU will become cheaper. India and Britain had signed the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) on July 24 last year, under which 99 per cent of Indian exports will enter the British market at zero duty, while duties on British products such as cars and whiskey in India will be reduced. This agreement needs approval from the British Parliament before it can be implemented.
