Twenty sectors where India and Europe already trade heavily, and the ones where the trade is only now beginning.
Each page is a plain explanation of the sector on both sides: how the goods and services actually move, what a company has to clear to operate, and what is changing. Written as background reading, not as a pitch.
Size, structure and who the significant players are in India and in Europe.
What travels in each direction, at what volume, and the reasons it does.
Licensing, certification and standards a company has to clear on each side.
Tariffs, the FTA, new rules, and where the sector looks to be heading next.
Mature flows with deep supply chains on both sides. The questions here are rarely whether a market exists; they are about cost, compliance, and who you work with.
The largest industrial flow in either direction: dyes, intermediates and agrochemicals moving west, specialty formulations and process technology moving east.
Read the guide →India supplies a large share of Europe's generic medicines. Europe supplies much of the equipment, excipients and regulatory framework behind them.
European capital equipment has been sold into Indian factories for generations. Increasingly it is also being built there.
Read the guide →Nearly every European tier-one has an Indian plant, and Indian component makers now supply European assembly lines directly.
Read the guide →Castings, forgings, fasteners and fabricated steel, one of India's oldest export lines into European industry and one of the most price-sensitive.
A long-established export base now reshaping itself around European sustainability, traceability and due-diligence requirements.
Read the guide →Seeds, spices, grains and agricultural inputs. European breeding and technology meets Indian volume, and both directions are active.
Read the guide →European processing lines and cold chain going in; processed foods, ingredients and ready meals coming out. Regulated heavily at both ends.
Read the guide →Among India's oldest European export categories, and now among the most exposed to sustainability scrutiny and shifting buyer expectations.
Cement, tiles, sanitaryware and fittings moving west; European engineering, design and equipment feeding India's infrastructure build-out.
India's largest services export to Europe, and the sector that first made working across this corridor feel ordinary rather than exotic.
Freight, warehousing, customs and the trade corridors themselves, the layer every other sector on this page quietly depends on.
Newer flows, mostly driven by policy on one side or the other: subsidy programmes, climate rules, security requirements. Less established, faster moving, and harder to get reliable information about.
Solar manufacturing, wind components and green hydrogen offtake. The fastest-moving policy area on both sides, and the most crowded with incentives.
Read the guide →Cell manufacturing, charging infrastructure and a battery supply chain being assembled in India almost from scratch, largely with imported technology.
India's fabrication and assembly push is new, heavily subsidised, and actively courting European equipment makers and design houses.
European mid-sized companies are now doing what multinationals did a decade ago: building their own engineering, finance and R&D centres in India.
Offset obligations and joint-venture requirements make this the corridor's most structurally complex sector, and one of its fastest-opening.
Local manufacturing incentives on one side and stricter EU device regulation on the other are reshaping who makes what, and where.
European treatment technology meeting India's municipal and industrial build-out. A market that barely existed as a corridor five years ago.
India's newly opened private space sector is drawing European component makers, launch customers and data buyers into a market that was closed until recently.
