Businesses are encouraged to utilize these agreements to their full potential.
India's Commerce Ministry will run nationwide FTA workshops; the India-Oman pact enters force June 1, with five deals now active in five years. Procurement and supply-chain teams should audit sourcing against FTA schedules to capture tariff advantages before competitors do.
