India, Canada FTA likely to miss deadline |
|
NEW DELHI: The proposed free trade agreement (FTA) between India and Canada is likely to be delayed and may miss the December 2013 deadline, a government official told PTI.
The FTA is aimed at slashing or eliminating duties on a large number of products traded between the two countries, besides opening the services sector and facilitating investment proposals.
Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and his Canadian counterpart Stephen Harper, in November last year, reaffirmed their desire to conclude the proposed pact by December 2013.
