Free trade agreements (FTAs) are agreements between two or more countries that reduce or eliminate tariffs and other trade barriers. FTAs can boost trade and economic growth, but they can also create challenges for businesses and workers.
India has signed a number of FTAs in recent years, including the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) with Japan, the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership (RCEP), and the India-ASEAN Free Trade Agreement (AIFTA) and with Australia (ECTA). These FTAs have the potential to increase India's exports and attract foreign investment. However, they also pose challenges, such as increased competition from foreign companies and the need to comply with new regulations.
In this video, we will discuss the benefits and challenges of FTAs for India. We will also provide an overview of the FTAs that India has signed.
