Today, nearly 70 per cent of global trade markets are open to India, where preferential access has been ensured through Free Trade Agreements (FTAs). This means India now receives special advantages compared to other countries. Union Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal shared this during a press conference on the #ViksitBharatBudget, highlighting that India has concluded 9 FTAs with 38 developed countries. These agreements are a key part of the plan to make India self-reliant and a developed nation by 2047.
