          The self-defeating tariff war between the US and China comes at a time when India has adopted a more liberalised approach writes India Inc. CEO Manoj Ladwa. US President Donald Trump has fired his opening salvos in what could escalate into a full blown trade war between the US and China, the world’s two largest economies. This is ironical and, in my opinion and in the opinions of millions of people around the world, self-defeating and, potentially, ruinous for the [...]

                    Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s recent visit to the UK has opened a new chapter in closer UK-India ties, with technology at its core. When Theresa May chose India for her first bilateral trade visit as British Prime Minister, she placed a smart bet that India will be crucial to the UK’s economy post Brexit.  Last month, she doubled-down on her bet, as Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi was the only one of the 53 Commonwealth heads of government that [...]
