The 2023 ‘Britain Meets India’ (BMI) report reveals that 635 UK-affiliated companies in India contribute significantly to the Indian economy, with a collective turnover of approximately Rs 4,88,840 crores and a workforce of around 666,992 people. These firms, primarily micro, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs), play a pivotal role, especially in the technology sector. The report emerges as India and the UK engage in the 13th round of free trade agreement (FTA) negotiations, aimed at boosting their existing GBP 36 billion bilateral trade. It also highlights 147 firms with a remarkable 46 percent average growth rate in the ‘BMI Growth Tracker.’ Opportunities abound as India’s middle class expands, making it an attractive market for UK companies in various sectors. The report underscores the growing economic partnership and the potential for a strengthened bond with the completion of the FTA negotiations.
