Dear Sir/Madam,
CHEMEXCIL attended a Stakeholder Consultations for the review of India’s FTAs with ASEAN, Japan and Korea in the Chemicals, Petro-chemicals & Plastics sectors covering chapters from 28 to 39.
As you are aware that the ASEAN-India Trade in Goods Agreement was signed and entered into force more than 13 years ago, on 1st January 2010. Given trade interests and ambitions of India and changing global trade environment, a strategic review of AITIGA has been initiated to ensure its continued relevance, address asymmetries in trade, and explore new opportunities. Similar reviews are also being undertaken for India’s existing FTAs with Japan and Korea.
These reviews aim is to strengthen and diversify trade relationships with these pivotal trade partners, while addressing the existing asymmetries in bilateral trade. Given that these agreements were signed over a decade ago, the trade environment has evolved significantly, prompting the need for a comprehensive reassessment.
In view of above we request members to share and give holistic idea about the rationale behind liberalization and protectionist measures keeping in mind global value chains creation within Asia-Pacific region in Chemicals, Petrochemicals and Plastics sector.
