Commerce and industry minister Piyush Goyal is set to travel to Germany and the Netherlands from Oct 22 to Oct 27 to strengthen trade and investment links. NDTV reports he will be accompanied by around 100 business leaders and entrepreneurs during the trip.
Mint adds context on the broader trade relationship between India and the European Union. It says India-EU goods trade totalled €118.4 billion in 2025, with EU imports from India at €69.5 billion and exports to India at €48.9 billion. Mint frames the visit as part of efforts to expand market access and investment opportunities as India and the EU work toward a free trade agreement (FTA).
Across the two sources, the core points align: the dates and purpose of the visit, the emphasis on business participation, and the link to wider trade and investment ambitions with the EU.
