Amit Maheshwari, Founder and CEO, Softlink Global said, “India–EU FTA should raise trade by lowering duties, speeding customs, and setting clearer origin and services rules. For logistics and freight tech, that means more volume and more need for clean digital docs and compliance. We will scale by adding EU-ready workflows, carrier and agent links, and lane analytics. Forwarders and airlines should invest, but stepwise: capacity, data, and risk cover first. Lanes to watch: India–Germany, Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, Poland; gateways via JNPT, Mundra, Chennai and key EU hubs. Middle East tension can disrupt Suez/Red Sea, adding time, fuel, and insurance; keep alternates and air lift ready.”
