London, Dec 18: British companies must ramp up investments in India so that bilateral trade can double from its current $12 billion-level within five years, offering Britain growth opportunities as it emerges from the recession, India’s high commissioner to Britain says.
“The composition of the UK’s exports to India is also not quite reflective, nor appropriate, of the relations between a very fast growing large developing economy and an established developed economy,” Nalin Surie wrote in an article published in the Daily Telegraph newspaper. Surie took the unusual step, this is the first time an Indian envoy to Britain has written for a British paper, just ahead of British Business Minister Peter Mandelson’s visit to India beginning on Friday to develop ties in business, science and technology.
