Indian exporters are seeing a sharp surge in orders from the United Kingdom ahead of the India-UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) coming into force on July 15, as buyers move quickly to take advantage of the proposed tariff cuts. Textile and garment exporters are seeing 12% higher orders from the UK than last year while orders of leather handbags and shoes are up 20%. Gems and jewellery exporters said consignments worth $6.5 million are ready for shipment, and chemical exporters expect a 30-40% rise in shipment to the UK.
