India Says U.S. Trade Pact Drafting Under Way, Will Move Only When Competitive Gains Are Clear
India’s Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal said legal drafting is under way for a prospective trade agreement with the United States, but stressed that the pact will be operationalised only when India secures a clear competitive advantage. His remarks come as Commerce Secretary Rajesh Agrawal said negotiations are moving in the right direction, signalling cautious progress without a formal breakthrough.
