EuroScope @ Global Eye Intelligence delivers a powerful, sector-by-sector analysis of India’s complex trade diplomacy with the United Kingdom and European Union. This policy brief unpacks why India–UK negotiations culminated in a landmark agreement in 2025, while India–EU talks continue to grapple with bottlenecks. Drawing on insights across automobiles, agriculture, dairy, spirits, IPR, EVs, public procurement and manufacturing, the brief reveals how political calculus, domestic sensitivities, and sectoral red lines shape India’s trade strategy.

With detailed comparisons of negotiation outcomes, tariff structures, quota mechanisms, safeguard clauses, and geopolitical incentives, this EuroScope edition explains how India balanced protectionism with global integration. It highlights why the UK deal succeeded through targeted compromises, while the broader and more diverse EU landscape poses tougher, structural obstacles.
