Indian women-led trade mission concludes UK visit following landmark agreement

A delegation of 13 women-led Indian enterprises has concluded a trade mission to the UK, marking a significant milestone in the implementation of the bilateral Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) signed on July 24, 2025. The mission, focused on the textiles and agrifood sectors, is the first women-centric initiative since the agreement established India’s first standalone chapter on trade and gender equality.
