MUMBAI (Reuters) -British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he wanted a trade deal with India to be implemented as soon as "humanly possible" as he began a two-day visit on Wednesday, joined by more than a hundred leaders from the business, culture and university sectors.
Britain and India signed a free trade agreement in July during a visit by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, sealing a deal to cut tariffs on goods from textiles to whisky and cars, and allow more market access for businesses.
