India-UK FTA Negotiations Face Delays Due to Outstanding Issues

India and the UK are trying to make a deal called a Free Trade Agreement (FTA).

This deal would make it easier for businesses in both countries to trade with each other.

But it's taking longer than expected.

There are disagreements about some things, like how long certain agreements should last (sunset clause), where data should be stored (data localization), and a new tax in the UK (carbon tax).

Both countries want different things from the deal.

India wants it easier for its skilled workers and goods to enter the UK.

The UK wants lower taxes on goods like whisky and cars from them.

They're still talking, but it might take a while to agree.
