Can the UK FTA alleviate US-tariff pain for textiles?
The US tariffs will bite India's textile sector-exports to the US stand at $10.7 billion annually, and some estimates project a 40% decline, as exports become more expensive. Given this, India's textile sector badly needs new markets. The imperative for this is spelled out by the fact that the sector contributes 2.3% to the GDP, accounts for 13% of industrial production, and comprises 12% of the country's total exports. Employing over 45 million, many of them rural women, it is second only to agriculture in terms of livelihoods. Against this backdrop, can the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA), signed by India and the UK in July and expected to be implemented in early 2026, offset some of the hurt? Under CETA, the UK will eliminate tariffs on several labourintensive Indian exports, leading to significant market access gains.
