Global trade mein jab slowdown chal raha hai, aur World Trade Organization (WTO) keh raha hai ki 2025 tak trade mein 0.2% ki kami aa sakti hai, tab India apni strategy change kar raha hai. India ka aim hai ki apni economy ko risk se bachaye, export markets secure kare aur naye deals se resilience build kare.
Naye Deals Ka Scene Kya Hai?
UK, Oman, aur New Zealand ke saath deals lagbhag finalize ho chuki hain aur jaldi hi लागू ho jayengi. Wahi, EU aur Canada ke saath baatcheet tez ho gayi hai. Ab tak India ne 38 countries ke saath 9 bade FTAs sign kiye hain.
Exports Aur Industries Ko Fayda
Yeh FTAs India ki industries ko competitive banane mein madad karenge. Example ke liye, India-UK deal ke baad lagbhag sabhi Indian exports ko UK mein duty-free access milega, jisse textile, apparel, auto parts, pharma aur engineering goods sector ko bada fayda hoga. New Zealand ke saath deal se bilateral trade double hone ki ummeed hai aur investment bhi badhegi. EU deal toh aur bhi important hai, jisme Indian sectors ko achha market access milega. Oman mein toh engineering goods par zero-duty access se 2030 tak shipments doubne ka andaaza hai.
Challenges Bhi Kam Nahi
Lekin har baar sab kuch itna smooth nahi hota. UK deal mein India mein aane wale goods par tariffs dheere-dheere kam honge, jo shayad Indian exports ko UK mein milne wale immediate access jitna faaydemand na ho. EU deal ke liye India ko sustainability, labor, aur environment standards jaise strict rules follow karne padenge, jisme kafi paisa lag sakta hai. Pehle ki deals dekhein toh ASEAN, South Korea, Japan ke saath India ka trade deficit raha hai, matlab sirf market access milne se hi fayda nahi hota. Compliance costs aur fayde ka uneven distribution bhi problems create karta hai. Global slowdown aur geopolitical tensions ki wajah se India ke exports aur logistics par bhi asar pad sakta hai.
Aage Ka Plan Aur Global Position
Oman aur EU jaise partners ke saath services, investment aur regulatory cooperation ko bhi deals mein include kiya ja raha hai. Canada ke saath 2026 ke end tak deal complete karne ka target hai. India apne services exports ko bhi mazboot kar raha hai, jo goods trade ko balance karta hai. In targeted FTAs se India global trade mein ek strong player banna chahta hai.
