India and the United States are reportedly in talks for a bilateral trade agreement valued at around $20 trillion, a figure that would rank it among the largest deals ever negotiated.
The proposed pact would cover goods, services, digital trade and investment, potentially boosting Indian exports to the US and opening new markets for American firms.
