British officials are likely to visit India in December with the aim of concluding talks on a free trade agreement (FTA) between the two countries in about four months, two Indian government sources said, after the nations missed their initial timeline.
A trade agreement between India and Britain that aims to double bilateral trade by 2030 could not be done by late October, the initial target for concluding the talks.
India's trade ministry and Britain will soon finalise if next month's talks will be at a ministerial level or the secretary level, one of the officials, who did not want to be named, told Reuters.
