India wins big with duty-free access for 11 lakh tonnes of a key industrial metal under UK trade pact

Indian exporters can now ship over eleven lakh tonnes of steel duty-free to the UK. This benefit comes into effect through a new free trade agreement implemented on Wednesday. The agreement resolves previous steel safeguard measures which had become a major sticking point. India has secured robust market access and continuity for its steel exporters. This development paves the way for enhanced bilateral trade in steel products.
