India’s Finance Ministry notifies rules for determining the origin of goods eligible for benefits under the India–UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), according to reporting across outlets. The rules set out how exporters must establish that imported or exported items qualify under the pact’s framework before tariff preferences apply. The notified process is tied to the start of the agreement’s operational phase on July 15. Under CETA, India receives duty-free access for about 99% of its exports to the United Kingdom, covering nearly the entire trade basket, as described by sources. To claim tariff advantages, exporters are required to provide a certificate of origin for eligible goods. The notification also aims to support the integrity of the trade preferences by helping prevent misuse and ensuring that benefits go to qualifying products that meet the agreed origin criteria. The pact is expected to affect sectors such as textiles and engineering, where exporters can seek the tariff concessions once the origin documentation requirements are met.
