India’s trade agreement with the United Kingdom is set to take effect around July 15, according to reports. Both outlets say the deal provides zero-duty market access for selected Indian export categories entering the British market starting that date. The sectors highlighted include textiles, leather and footwear, gems and jewellery, and plastics. One report notes the agreement is scheduled to come into force on July 15, while another states it takes effect on the same timeline, resulting in the zero-duty implementation from July 15 itself. The agreement also frames broader trade ambitions: one source cites a target of increasing bilateral trade to $100 billion by 2030. Across the accounts, the central immediate change described is the reduction of tariffs to zero for the specified product groups in the UK, reflecting a shift in trade terms beginning July 15.
