Dear Member,

As you may be aware that India and Australia have signed the official text of the India-Australia Economic Cooperation and Trade Agreement (India-Australia ECTA) on 2nd April 2022 and the ECTA is expected to come into force from 29th December 2022.

Under the India-Australia ECTA, exports from India will be getting tariff concessions on 6367 tariff lines accounting for 98.3% of the total tariff lines in Australia, immediately after the agreement comes into force. Australia has provided concessions on 100% tariff lines without any exclusion. Textiles sectors along with gems & jewellery, apparel, leather etc. will gain zero duty benefits with immediate effect.

In this regard, to inform the industry about the benefits of the ECTA, the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) is organizing a seminar/outreach program on 27th December 2022 in coordination with the Department of Commerce and RA DGFT Mumbai as per the below details:
