New Delhi, Mar 29 (UNI) The four-day India-US trade talks concluded on Saturday with both sides 'reaching a broad understanding' on next steps towards mutually-beneficial bilateral trade agreement (BTA).
The Ministry of Commerce in an official statement said that sectoral expert level engagements under the BTA would start virtually in the coming weeks.
The development has come in the wake of US President Donald Trump's threat to impose "reciprocal" tariffs on countries around the world, including India.
