India and the UAE are targeting increasing bilateral trade to total $100 billion. The counsel is also keen to attract $75 billion in investments from the UAE to India.
“This includes investments in large infrastructure projects in India, advancements in manufacturing and technology, and providing Indian manufacturers with the ability to use the UAE as a base for their global expansion,” said KEF Holdings’ chairman Faizal Kottikollon, who has been appointed as the chairman of the UAE India Business Council – UAE Chapter (UIBC-UC).
The UIBC-UC is poised to play a crucial role in supporting both governments in achieving these objectives and maximising the potential of the UAE-India relationship.
By leveraging the strong bond between the two nations, the council brings together key partners and stakeholders from both nations and will serve as a valuable source of policy guidance, fostering innovative collaboration between Emirati and Indian businesses.
