India and Japan would sign a comprehensive market-opening pact in a month, a move that would reduce or eliminate tariffs on over 90 per cent of goods traded between the two countries, Commerce Minister Anand Sharma said today.
“CEPA will be signed in a month or so,” Sharma said at a function organised by Ficci, USIBC and Amcham. Negotiations on CEPA were concluded during Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s visit to Tokyo last month.
