India’s Relations with EU
•India was among the first countries to establish diplomatic relations with the EEC (European Economic Community) in 1960. •The 1994 cooperation agreement signed between EU and India took bilateral relations beyond merely trade and economic cooperation. Together with the Joint Political Statement signed in 1993 it opened the way for annual ministerial meetings and a broad political dialogue. Since then, dialogues have been held at different levels and at regular intervals. •In 2004, EU and India entered into a strategic relationship. The EU has strategic partnerships with only five other countries: USA, Canada, Russia, Japan and China. Since then, Joint Action Plans are being made and updated regularly. • India has signed Bilateral Investment Protection Agreements (BIPA) with 16 of the 25 EU Member States. •Double Taxation Avoidance: India has Double Taxation Avoidance Agreements (DTAA) with 18 out of 25 EU Member States. Negotiations for signing DTAAs with Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Slovakia and Slovenia are in advanced stages.

TRADE RELATIONS
•Between 2000 and 2007, EU27 trade in goods with India more than doubled in value: exports rose from 13.7 billion euro to 29.5 bn, while imports increased from 12.8 bn to 26.3 bn. As a result, the EU27 surplus in trade with India increased from 0.8 bn in 2000 to 3.2 bn in 2007. This increased surplus was mainly due to a surplus in manufactured goods, which rose from 0.9 bn in 2000 to 4.7 bn in 2007. India accounted in 2007 for 2.4% of EU27 exports and 1.8% of EU27 imports, and was the EU27's 9th most important trading partner. •For India, EU is the largest exporting destination (over 22% of our exports) and the largest importing source (19% of our imports).

•Among the EU27 Member States, Germany (7.3 bn euro, 25% of EU exports) was by far the largest exporter to India in 2007, followed by Belgium (5.4 bn or 18%) and the United Kingdom (4.3 bn or 15%). The United Kingdom (5.3 bn or 20%) was the largest importer, followed by Germany (4.3 bn or 17%) and Italy (3.4 bn or 13%).
