India–UK FTA, India–US trade talks, and critical minerals

By Minal Khadilkar

Trade headlines are easy to scroll past. Today’s trade discussion is often tomorrow’s business opening.

This edition takes three developments that sat in the same week: the India–UK FTA announcement, India–US trade talks at the G7, and the global focus on critical minerals.

Read together, they point to export openings, a reason to watch the India–US conversation, and manufacturing and supply-chain work that Indian SMEs can prepare for now.

  • New export opportunities through the India–UK FTA.
  • What India–US trade talks could mean for businesses.
  • Emerging manufacturing and supply-chain opportunities around critical minerals.
