Your Guide to Exporting to India from the UK 2021
India’s economy is on the rise, don’t miss out on a fantastic opportunity to export goods from the UK to India
With its energetic and growing consumer demand of over 1.2 billion people, and more than a quarter of the world’s under 25s – India is slated to become the world’s largest economy by the year 2030. This vibrant country offers such a desirable market, and now, a world of opportunity for UK exporters.
If your business is ready to set foot outside of the UK, exporting is often the most logical place to start. In this guide, we’re going to cover all you need to know about exporting to India from the UK, including an India economy overview, India UK relations, and the benefits of exporting from the UK to India.
Let’s get started!
India Economy
India’s economy continued to expand by 1.6% each year throughout January and March of 2021 – a sign that economic activity was slowly recovering, that was before the country was hit by a second wave of COVID-19 infections in April of 2021.
The financial year of April 2020 to March 2021 showed that India’s economy in gross domestic product narrowed at around 7.3%. According to Financial Times, this is India’s worst performance in four decades. However, it’s also said that the decline was much less severe than some had initially feared.
Unrelated to COVID-19: throughout recent years, India has emerged as the fastest-growing major economy in the world. Backed by its robust democracy and strong partnerships, it’s expected to be one of the top three economic powers worldwide within the next 10-15 years.
In market size, India’s real gross domestic product (GDP) at current prices stood at $ 2.71 trillion in FY21, as per the second advance estimates (SAE) for 2020-21.
When looking at India’s economy, we also have to consider its workforce, which is now expanding quickly within the industry and services sector. Its growth partially comes down to international outsourcing, which stands as a profitable venture for India’s economy. The other part revolves around India’s agriculture sector -which is still a global power that produces more wheat or tea than anyone in the world except for China.
India and UK Business Relationship
India’s economy at the end of 2020 boasted $2.6 trillion. This is considered the most significant market with which the UK has committed to negotiating a trade deal as of yet.
‘UK and India share a long and enduring friendship, and as we take back control of our trade, we can champion our global free trade agenda together,’ said Ranil Jayawardena.
According to GOV.UK, both the UK and India have now agreed to a new trade and investment deal. Prime Ministers Boris Johnson and Narendra Modi formalized this talk during the Enhanced Economic Partnership set out in early 2021. (for more information, see – India, UK Agree to Immediate’ Enhanced Trade Partnership).
When it comes to exporting goods from the UK to India, it’s clear that many opportunities exist for UK business owners. UK India relations are strong, and trade between the two powerful countries already sits at a worth of around £23 billion a year -some of which supports over a whopping half a million jobs in the UK.
The formalized ‘Enhanced Trade Partnership’ is set to double the current value of UK India relations and trade by 2030, and is viewed by both sides as a declaration of their shared intent to begin working towards a comprehensive FTA (free trade agreement).
Benefits of Exporting to India
Challenges of Exporting to India
Similar to any great opportunity, there are also challenges when exporting from the UK to India. First and foremost, we have to consider that it’s a highly price-competitive market. As we all know, price is a crucial factor for consumers. Keep in mind that you may be expected to negotiate on the price for your goods, and to probably provide some discounts along the way.
In addition to this, according to GOV.UK, you should also be aware of:
- multiple religious, ethnic, and annual variations in holiday timings, requiring careful planning for business trips
- barriers to trade and investment in some sectors because of regulatory constraints, local sourcing requirements, and import tariffs
- intellectual-property protection (IP)
- risk of delays due to administrative requirements
- the difficulty of land acquisition
- access to the right skills in the local workforce
- infrastructure challenges, including distribution and logistics
- scorching weather in summer and wet weather in the monsoon season can affect business
- risk of bribery and corruption

Business Opportunities in India for Investors
As one of the fastest-growing in the world, India’s economy offers various exciting export opportunities for UK businesses. Both the UK and Indian markets hold robust ties through ideas, institutions, ideas, technology, and language -all of which help the establishment of a long-lasting and successful partnership.
Those who own businesses within the technology, automotive, or fintech sectors could benefit particularly well by exporting goods to India. Let’s take a closer look at the opportunities available within each:
- Technology – It’s true, India really is one of the most data-rich countries in the world. It has a vast number of internet subscribers, and some of the most economical mobile data costs. In addition to this, it also boasts a considerable start-up ecosystem, with many emerging technologies like AI and machine learning now being applied to the financial, healthcare, and educational industries.
- Fintech – India’s fintech sector is growing at a rapid pace. The strong demand for digital onboarding, wealth management, and technology around regulation, blockchain, and insurance; offers ample chances for those in the UK exporting to India. India also provides one of the highest expected return rates on fintech projects – 29% versus the global average of 20%.
- Automotive – Since India is the fourth-largest automobile market worldwide, it presents enormous opportunities for UK companies to manufacture two-wheelers, cars, buses, commercial vehicles, and even tractors. In this, you can also account for electric vehicles thanks to a new government target for all new vehicles to be electric by 2030.
