The India-EU Free Trade Agreement was concluded on 27 January 2026 after 18 years of negotiation. It covers two billion people and a quarter of global GDP. By any measure, it is the most important trade story of the decade.
Most of the companies that should benefit from it have no playbook for what to actually do.
Search the news and you'll find headlines about "the mother of all trade deals". Search a little deeper and you'll find consultancy white papers written for boards that have already decided. What you won't find is the layer in between: practical, honest, sector-specific analysis for the people who actually have to file the paperwork, classify the HS codes, hire the distributors, and ship the goods.
IndoEuro is built for that layer.

Who reads IndoEuro
EU exporters preparing for India entry. Indian importers hunting for new sourcing. Trade lawyers, customs brokers, chamber executives. Founders building cross-border businesses. Policy researchers and journalists who need primary-source clarity, fast.
What makes us different
Numbers over adjectives. Every claim is backed by a specific figure with a specific source.
Bilateral framing. Most coverage is either EU-side or India-side. We always do both.
Independent. No agency conflicts. No sponsored content disguised as analysis. No paywall on the basics.
