India’s decision to slash tariffs on UK-made cars to whiskey as part of a sweeping trade pact could create a line of winners, including Jaguar Land Rover and Diageo Plc.The Free Trade Agreement, announced Tuesday after three years of negotiations, will make it cheaper for UK firms to sell their whiskeys, cars, auto parts, cosmetics, biscuits, clothes and electrical machinery in the world’s most populous nation. Indian exporters to the UK will benefit from lower levies on 99% of products and services.The deal saw India opening up some of its most protected sectors — cars for instance — and sets a precedent for other trade pacts under discussion, including with the European Union and the US. Such bilateral agreements also provide a cushion against the tariffs pain inflicted by US President Donald Trump.UK-India Trade by Commodity and ServicesThe trade pact might kick in after a year, DBS Bank Ltd. Economist Radhika Rao wrote in a May 7 note. Bilateral commerce is expected to nearly double in a few years from $21 billion in the year ended March 2024, she wrote.As exporters and companies await the fine print of the deal, here’s a quick list of probable winners and losers:AutomobilesWhile the reduced tariffs — from 110% to 10% — will start with fossil fuels-fed cars, these will eventually be extended to the electric and hybrid vehicles over a 10-year timeline, according to information on the UK government website.The UK will also offer Indian carmakers the opportunity to export these technologies to that country, with similar riders.Beneficiaries may include JLR and other luxury brands with factories in the UK such as Bentley, Aston Martin, Vauxhall and Mini. 120986925Domestic carmakers like Mahindra & Mahindra Ltd. and Maruti Suzuki India Ltd., which have invested in EV, may feel the pinch. It is unclear how these concessions will be structured and what price threshold will apply to a quota of cars that can be imported with these lower tariffs.While this is the first time India has taken steps to liberalise its nascent EV market, it has stopped short of handing UK carmakers an immediate low-cost entry, giving local firms some runway to bulk up.Liquor MakersWhiskey and gin tariffs will be halved to 75% before settling at 40% by the 10th year of the deal, according to the pact’s terms. In 2022, India imported over £200 million ($266 million) worth of whiskey from the UK, paying duty at the rate of 150%.Diageo, which makes Johnnie Walker whiskey and Tanqueray gin, may gain from this. Shares of its Indian unit, United Spirits Ltd., jumped as much as 2.8% on Wednesday.The treaty will enable “improved accessibility and choice of scotch for the Indian consumers” in the world’s largest whiskey market, Praveen Someshwar, managing director at Diageo India, said in a statement.Elara Capital’s Karan Taurani said the duty reduction will see prices of these drinks falling by 15%-20%, and will make premium spirits more accessible to Indian buyers.The duty cuts could have a small negative impact on homegrown liquor brands such as Royal Ranthambore, marketed by Radico Khaitan Ltd., according to Taurani. Its shares slipped 3.6%. “Domestic players focused on upper prestige and above may see short-term aberration in growth,” he said.Textile MakersClothes are the second-largest export to the UK from India, with the South Asian nation shipping £900 million worth of goods in 2024.The removal of tariffs will enhance India’s competitiveness against countries like Bangladesh and Vietnam, according to the Federation of Indian Export Organisations.Apparel retailers such as Marks and Spencers and Primark are expected to shift sourcing to India from Bangladesh after this deal, according to P Senthilkumar, a partner at Vector Consulting.Gokaldas Exports Ltd. and Welspun Living Ltd. rose 12% on Wednesday while Indo Count Industries Ltd. advanced 11.3%.Medical DevicesIndian exporters would be able to sell medical devices at a lower cost in the UK.This includes cardiac, orthopedic implants, syringes, blades, blood bags and glucometers as well as its wearables to the UK at a lower cost, Rajiv Chhibber, joint coordinator at the Association of Indian Manufacturers of Medical Devices, told Bloomberg News.UK-based companies would be able to increase supply of electronic goods such as Magnetic Resonance Imaging machines, slicers, cancer therapeutics to India, he added.Financial Services“The deal will secure UK companies’ ability to deliver financial services to clients in India,” the UK government said on its website.India and the UK agreed to cooperate and innovate on financial technology services, particularly developing an efficient environment for cross-border payments. That is expected to ease international payments for tourists, students, businesses and investors.

डिजिटल डेस्क, पटना। Bihar Political News: भारतीय सेना द्वारा पाकिस्तान पर एयरस्ट्राइक के बाद अब इस मामले पर राजनीति शुरू हो गई है। सबसे अधिक सियासत तो बिहार में हो रही है जहां नेता अलग-अलग तरह के बयान दे रहे हैं। इसी क्रम में अब तेज प्रताप यादव के एक बयान ने लोगों को चौंका कर रख दिया है।

तेज प्रताप यादव ने अपने एक्स हैंडल पर पोस्ट करते हुए बॉर्डर पर जाने की बात लिखी है। तेज प्रताप यादव ने लिखा कि पायलट की ट्रेनिंग अगर देश के काम आ सकती है तो मैं तेज प्रताप यादव हर समय देश की सेवा के लिए तत्पर हूं।

आपकी जानकारी के लिए बता दूं कि मैने भी पायलट की ट्रेनिंग ले रखी है और देश के लिए मेरी जान भी चली जाए तो अपने आपको भाग्यशाली समझूंगा।

यूजर्स ने कहा- आपके पास तो 'फ्लाइट रेडियो टेलीफोन ऑपरेटर' का लाइसेंस है

तेज प्रताप यादव ने जैसे ही यह पोस्ट किया उसके बाद यूजर्स ने भी मजे लेने शुरू कर दिए। प्रवीण नाम के एक यूजर ने कमेंट कर लिखा कि तेज प्रताप यादव के पास जो लाइसेंस है वह फ्लाइट रेडियो टेलीफोन ऑपरेटर लाइसेंस (रिस्ट्रिक्टेड) है, जो रेडियो संचालन के लिए है, न कि हवाईजहाज उड़ाने के लिए। इसलिए वह तकनीकी रूप से पायलट नहीं हैं, क्योंकि उनके पास DGCA से पायलट लाइसेंस नहीं है।

वहीं एक अन्य यूजर ने लिखा कि भाई साहब हम अपनी हंसी नहीं रोक पा रहे है , किसने आप को पायलट बना दिया ? पायलट प्लेन चलाता है, भैंसिया नहीं और आप पे भैंस चलाना ही सूट करता है !

अजीत यादव नाम के यूजर ने लिखा कि तेज प्रताप ने युद्ध की स्थिति में विमान उड़ानें की बात कही हैं न कि आपको या आपके परिवार को किसी ट्रिप पे जाने के लिए।

पायलट की ट्रेनिंग अगर देश के काम आ सकती है तो,मैं तेज प्रताप यादव हर समय देश की सेवा के लिए तत्पर हूँ।

आपके जानकारी के लिए बता दू की मैने भी पायलट की ट्रेनिंग ले रखी है और देश के लिए मेरी जान भी चली जाए तो अपने आपको भाग्यशाली समझुगा।

— Tej Pratap Yadav (@TejYadav14) May 7, 2025 हम भारतीय कभी भी गलत नहीं करते: तेज प्रताप यादव

तेज प्रताप यादव ने एक अन् भारत, भारतीयों और भारतीय सेना ने कभी भी अपने देश में किसी भी प्रकार के आतंकवाद और अलगाववाद को बर्दाश्त नहीं किया है और ना ही कभी करेंगे। भारतीय सेना ने हर बार माताओं की कोख, बहनों की कलाई, और उनके माथे के सिंदूर की रक्षा की है। हम सत्य, अहिंसा और शांति को मानने वाले लोग हैं।

हम भारतीय कभी गलत नहीं करते लेकिन अगर कोई हमारे साथ गलत करता है तो फिर हम सहते नहीं। आतंकवाद को पोसने वाले लोग यदि हमारी एकता, अखंडता और संप्रभुता पर प्रहार करेंगे तो हमें एकजुट होकर मुंह तोड़ जवाब देना आता है।

आतंकवाद के विरुद्ध इस लड़ाई में 140 करोड़ भारतवासी भारतीय सेना और सरकार के साथ है। हिंदुस्तान जिंदाबाद! भारतीय सेना ज़िंदाबाद! जय हिंद!
