The UK is seen as a preferred international destination for expansion by a majority of Indian businesses, according to a new analysis by business and financial adviser Grant Thornton UK released here on Wednesday.
Grant Thornton's International Business Report (IBR), which surveys the expectations of around 3,500 senior executives in 31 economies every quarter, found that 89 per cent of mid-market Indian businesses referred to the UK in their growth preferences and 61 per cent of UK businesses had a similar view of India as a market for expansion.
A proposed India-UK free trade agreement (FTA), currently in the fourteenth round of negotiations, is seen as holding out great potential to further boost this two-way business attraction.
Businesses in both India and UK markets are setting their sights on the other as a key destination for global expansion, drawn by the two markets' strategic advantages and strong cultural connections, said Anuj Chande, Head of South Asia Business Group a

At a time when the entire world recognises that China is a non-transparent and opaque economy, some people, possibly responsible for its growing influence in the India industry, are choosing to continue to praise or defend the China story, Commerce and Industry Minister Piyush Goyal said on Thursday.
Slamming the previous Congress-led government, he said it is a matter of "shame" that India allowed substandard and opaquely-priced Chinese goods to flood the Indian markets and kill Indian manufacturing.
"As regards China, it is very sad that some people, possibly responsible for the growing influence of China in the India industry, are choosing to continue to praise or defend the China story, whereas the whole world today recognises that China is a non-transparent and opaque economy," Goyal told Indian journalists at a news conference here.
He was responding to a question on recent remarks by Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi during his US trip last month, alleging th

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's meetings with the top leaders of Russia and Ukraine were "beginnings of a communication process" between two countries engaged in a serious conflict that has had enormous consequences, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Saturday.
In an interactive session at The Conclave 2024 organised by news channel Pratidin Time, Jaishankar said Prime Minister Modi was one of the very few world leaders who has the "ability" to speak to both the leaders, who "trust" him.
"What are we trying to do? You don't necessarily have to mediate... sometimes you have to communicate. We are actually, simultaneously talking to two countries who are having a conflict," he said to a question on India's role in "mediation" in the Ukraine conflict.
Jaishankar said Prime Minister Modi has had at least three meetings with Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelenskyy and one meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
He said National Security Adviser Ajit Doval also met Puti

Israel expanded its bombardment in Lebanon on Saturday, hitting Beirut's southern suburbs with 12 airstrikes and striking a Palestinian refugee camp deep in northern Lebanon for the first time.
The attack on the Beddawi refugee camp near the northern city of Tripoli killed an official with Hamas's military wing, along with his wife and two young daughters, the Palesitnian militant group said in a statement. Tripoli is much farther north than the majority of Israel's strikes, which have been concentrated in southern Lebanon and Beirut.
Israel has killed several Hamas officials in Lebanon since the Israel-Hamas war began in October last year, in addition to most of the top leadership of Hezbollah.
At least six people were killed in more than a dozen Israeli airstrikes overnight and into Saturday, according to National News Agency, Lebanon's official news agency.
The Israeli military said special forces were carrying out targeted ground raids against Hezbollah infrastructure in southe
