INDIA, FRANCE CONCLUDE INTER-GOVERNMENTAL AGREEMENT FOR 26 RAFALE-M JETS FOR NAVY

India and France formally concluded the Inter-Governmental Agreement (IGA) for 26 Rafale-M fighter jets valued at around ₹63,000 Crore

The deal was concluded in a formal ceremony attended by Defence Secretary Rajesh Kumar Singh, Navy Vice Chief Vice Admiral Krishna Swaminathan and French Ambassador in India Thoerry Mathou at Nau Sena Bhawan. In addition to the IGA, several associated Government to Business agreements were also concluded.

Earlier, French Defence Minister was scheduled to visit India to sign the deal, which was deferred due to personal reasons. So the signing of the IGA was done by the two Ministers remotely, as reported by The Hindu earlier.
