India's Trade Negotiations with Netherlands Bear Fruit as Country Becomes India's 3rd Largest Export Market
India’s Exports to the Netherlands grew by 69%
India’s exports to the Netherlands grew by 69% in the last year, reaching a record high of $13.67
billion. This growth has made the Netherlands India’s third-largest export market, after the United
States and the United Arab Emirates.
The growth in exports to the Netherlands is being driven by a number of factors, including the strong
economic growth in the Netherlands, the increasing demand for Indian goods in the Netherlands, and
the improved trade relations between India and the Netherlands.
Strong Economic Growth in the Netherlands
The Netherlands is one of the fastest-growing economies in Europe. The Dutch economy grew by
3.9% in 2022 and is expected to grow by 3.5% in 2023. This strong economic growth is creating new
opportunities for businesses in the Netherlands and is leading to an increase in demand for goods
from other countries, including India.
Increasing Demand for Indian Goods in the Netherlands
The demand for Indian goods in the Netherlands is also increasing. Indian goods are seen as being
high quality and affordable, and they are becoming increasingly popular with Dutch consumers. This
increasing demand is leading to an increase in exports from India to the Netherlands.
Improved Trade Relations Between India and the Netherlands
The improved trade relations between India and the Netherlands are also contributing to the growth in
exports. In 2018, India and the Netherlands signed a Comprehensive Economic Partnership
Agreement (CEPA). The CEPA has lowered tariffs on a number of goods, making it easier for
businesses in both countries to trade with each other. The CEPA is also expected to lead to an increase
in investment between India and the Netherlands.
Positive Development for the Indian Economy
The growth in exports to the Netherlands is a positive development for the Indian economy. It is a
sign that India’s trade negotiations are paying off and that India is becoming an increasingly important
player in the global economy. The improved trade relations between India and the Netherlands are
also a positive development, as they are creating new opportunities for businesses in both countries.
