India and New Zealand Establish a Calibrated Market Access Framework Balanced liberalisation. Strategic protection. India has offered market access across 70.03% tariff lines, covering 95% of bilateral trade value, with 30% of tariff lines witnessing immediate duty elimination and the rest phased over time. At the same time, sensitive sectors such as dairy and key agricultural products remain protected through a calibrated exclusion approach. This framework ensures trade expansion while safeguarding domestic priorities. #IndiaNZFTA #TradePolicy #MarketAccess #FTAs #DoC_GoI @PiyushGoyal @RajeshAgrawal94 @PIB_India
