Meaningful discussions with my friend and counterpart Mr. @PeterKyle in London as we explored new opportunities to deepen India-UK economic and trade cooperation.

Truly honoured to have received the Special Award for Exceptional Leadership in Elevating UK-India Relations at the Annual UK-India Awards 2026 in London.

I also congratulate all my fellow awardees for their outstanding contributions towards enriching this valuable partnership.
Addressed a distinguished gathering of over 300 policymakers and industry leaders on the next chapter of our partnership, with the India-UK CETA taking effect on 15 July 2026 and becoming the fastest-implemented trade deal in British parliamentary history.
Under the decisive leadership of PM @NarendraModi ji, India’s growth story offers unprecedented opportunities for collaboration across trade, innovation, technology, education, and emerging sectors.
The best innings of the India-UK partnership are yet to come! 🇮🇳🤝🇬🇧
Good meeting with Mr. Vivek Ramachandran, Head of Global Trade Solutions at HSBC.
Discussed how the India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) will create an enabling environment for businesses to expand.
Highlighted the vital role financial institutions will play in helping businesses navigate new markets through stronger trade finance & cross-border banking solutions.
The future growth of India’s exports will depend not only on large exporters, but also on the ability of SMEs, artisans and entrepreneurs to access global markets at scale.
E-Commerce Export Hubs have the potential to reduce transaction costs, improve logistics efficiency and simplify export processes, enabling a wider base of businesses to participate in cross-border trade. Expanding digital export channels will be important for diversifying India’s export basket and strengthening its presence in global value chains.
