The Give and Take Needed to Bring the India–US Trade Deal Back on Track
Q: What will be the give and take that will have to be done now between the Indian and the US trade negotiators to get the deal back on track?
India needs to be pragmatic and may have to negotiate concessions, especially in agriculture, while also focusing on greater market access.
The GST Reform India Needs but Didn’t Get with Arbind Modi
Q: On the whole, what tax reforms do you think are needed for 8 percent GDP growth?

The GST Reform India Needs but Didn’t Get with Arbind Modi
