FTA with EFTA ; India's cautious approach, ambitious goals & the historical ghosts | TEPA

I just hope, this FTA turns out favorable to India. But, it appears as of now, it's a 50-50 chance, unless we expand the domains. Idk why govt. didn't gave any concession on gold, cause Indians buy that a lot. Could have reduced custom duties on the same but govt. is selfish in that regard I suppose, just like the oil. Although it's a good outreach and would further help in the relations with Baltic Nations and possibly Northern Sea routes.
