The United Kingdom is keen on partnering the new State in its development post Bifurcation, Deputy Head of Mission, British Deputy High Commission in Hyderabad, Abhilash Puzakara said.
Speaking at an interactive session organised here on Friday by the AP Chambers of Commerce and Industry Federation, Puzakara said UK's trade with India during 2014 amounted to 15.8 billion pounds sterling and Britain had made a commitment to spend 1 billion pounds sterling on export finance credit to India. "It is a two-way traffic with India. Tatas are a very large employer in Britain and many UK companies are in India. Low tax rates, a talented workforce and ease of doing business make it easy for Indian companies to invest in the UK," he said.
