With the India–EU Free Trade Agreement opening unprecedented access to global markets, Indian manufacturing and agri-mechanisation stand at the threshold of a major export-led growth cycle. We see this as a strong policy signal to accelerate innovation, localisation and global competitiveness, ensuring Indian farmers remain at the centre of India’s growth story.
The budget proposals to support Agri & Cooperatives,MSMEs, Textiles, Sports Goods and Pharma sectors will specifically be beneficial for the farmers and entrepreneurs in Punjab, Haryana and Himachal Pradesh region.
