A recent Joint Trade Committee meeting between India and Nigeria identified key areas of focus for enhancing bilateral trade and mutually beneficial investments. The two sides agreed to finalize the Local Currency Settlement System Agreement to further strengthen economic ties. The discussions were held in a cordial atmosphere and highlighted the potential for further expansion in various sectors including crude oil, natural gas, pharmaceuticals, and renewable energy.

The Indian delegation, led by officials from the Department of Commerce and accompanied by the High Commissioner of India to Nigeria, actively engaged in discussions with their Nigerian counterparts. Both sides acknowledged the untapped potential for growth in bilateral trade and investment, and identified key sectors for collaboration. The talks were forward-looking and indicative of the amicable relations between the two countries.

India and Nigeria committed to addressing issues that are impeding bilateral trade and promoting trade between the two nations. The business delegation from India, including representatives from various sectors such as power, fintech, telecommunications, and pharmaceuticals, also participated in the discussions. This demonstrates the strong interest from both sides in boosting trade and investment relations.

Nigeria is a major trading partner of India in the African region, with bilateral trade standing at USD 11.8 billion in 2022-23. However, in 2023-24, the trade declined to 7.89 billion. Despite this decline, approximately 135 Indian companies have invested a total of USD 27 billion in Nigeria across various sectors such as infrastructure, manufacturing, and consumer goods. This shows the continued interest of Indian companies in Nigeria’s vibrant market.

The discussions at the Joint Trade Committee meeting focused on resolving market access issues, and cooperation in key sectors such as power, agriculture, education, and transportation. Both sides expressed enthusiasm towards greater cooperation and trade promotion. The talks were deemed fruitful and the delegations showed a keen interest in addressing pending issues and boosting people-to-people contacts.

Overall, the 2nd Session of the India-Nigeria JTC was cordial, forward-looking, and indicative of the strong and special relations between the two countries. With a commitment to addressing challenges and promoting trade and investment, India and Nigeria are poised to strengthen their economic ties and explore new opportunities for collaboration in the future.
