India-EFTA trade pact to come into force by September, says Piyush Goyal
Bern [Switzerland], June 9 (ANI): The landmark free trade agreement between India and the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) is set to become operational by September, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal announced on Monday during his visit to Switzerland. EFTA is an inter-governmental organization set up in 1960 for the promotion of free trade and economic integration for the benefit of its four Member States - Switzerland, Iceland, Norway and Liechtenstein. Under the comprehensive pact, EFTA nations have committed to investing $100 billion in India over 15 years. Through reduced or eliminated tariffs, India is expected to provide preferential access to various European products, including Swiss watches, chocolates, and cut and polished diamonds. Speaking to reporters in Bern, Goyal said the agreement has secured parliamentary approval from all four EFTA member countries, 'By September, TEPA will be operationalised. It will enter into force,' the minister stated. He noted that while Switzerland maintains an objection period open until July 10, the summer holidays of July and August are not expected to delay implementation. During his Swiss visit, which focused on strengthening bilateral trade and investment ties, Goyal held meetings with over a dozen companies These companies have expressed particular enthusiasm for opportunities in a range of sectors including pharmaceuticals, cybersecurity, and machinery manufacturing sectors. 'There's tremendous excitement here for India,' Goyal observed, highlighting Switzerland's growing confidence in India as an investment destination. Beyond the EFTA agreement, India is actively pursuing trade partnerships with other countries. Goyal revealed negotiations with New Zealand, Chile, Peru, Oman, and the European Union. He said EU trade pact could be finalised 'faster than expected.' The minister also indicated progress on a bilateral investment treaty with the EU. Goyal emphasised India's manufacturing potential, particularly in machinery production, where the country allows 100% foreign direct investment. This strategy aims to reduce India's dependence on Chinese machinery for imports while positioning the country as a manufacturing hub. He cited the air conditioning sector as a success story, where government initiatives like the Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme have increased local manufacturing content from 20% to 65%, with targets to reach 80% within three years. Reflecting on India's economic progress under 11 years of NDA governance, Goyal said the country has emerged as a premier global business destination. He highlighted the presence of nearly 2,000 Global Capability Centres in India, underscoring the nation's emergence as a preferred location for both manufacturing and services. 'The world today recognises that the best place to do business is India,' Goyal said, attributing this transformation to sustained good governance and strategic policy implementation. The EFTA agreement represents another step in India's broader strategy to diversify trade partnerships and integrate more deeply into global value chains while attracting significant foreign investment to fuel domestic economic growth.

Brazil's Embraer looking to step up jet production
New Delhi: Brazilian planemaker Embraer is looking to increase production rate of its commercial planes to 120 a year from 73 now, as airlines call for competition to end the Boeing-Airbus duopoly . Embraer is the third-largest aircraft manufacturer behind Boeing and Airbus. It manufactures regional planes with capacities ranging from 50 to 132 seats. "This year, we have a plan to deliver 75 to 80 planes in the commercial segment. We plan to increase production to 110 to 120 per year," Francisco Gomez Neto, chief executive officer of Embraer, told ET in an interview. Embraer is also examining the potential of a clean sheet design to increase market share. Neto didn't confirm if that would be a commercial jetliner, but reports have suggested that the company is planning a next-generation, narrow-body jet which can compete with best seller aircraft like the Airbus A320 and Boeing 737. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Shooter Action MMO Crossout Play Now Undo "It could be a new commercial or business jet... New commercial jet, bigger or smaller than what we have today," said Neto. "We are talking to engine makers, studying different types of wings. We want to make sure that if we build a new product, it should be one for the next two to three decades." European aerospace major Airbus is developing a next-generation, single-aisle aircraft for introduction in the second half of the 2030s, the company said. Live Events Boeing and Airbus are months and years behind on new aircraft deliveries, frustrating airlines that want to upgrade to more fuel-efficient planes and launch new services. Emirates CEO Tim Clark said the industry is still facing chronic aerospace supply problems and challenged plane makers to take responsibility. "I am pretty tired of seeing the hand-wringing about the supply chain: you (manufacturers) are the supply chain," Clark said last week at a press briefing in New Delhi. However, though he said that the industry needs a third manufacturer, he added that currently it doesn't look like the duopoly would end so soon. United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby also called for more competition in the aerospace business. Neto said he sees opportunities in India in commercial and business jets, as well as military aircraft, and is ready to set up a final assembly line if it secures a large order from the country's airlines. "We are very open to discuss, but we need to have scale of deliveries in India in order to make sense, make business sense, but we are open to do it," Neto said.
