How might Xi Jinping’s potential trip to India impact local companies?
Chinese President Xi Jinping is expected to travel to India next month, a move that may strengthen bilateral relations and soften the economic curbs imposed after the 2020 border standoff. This would be his first trip to the country in seven years. A thaw in diplomatic ties could boost trade, investment, and supply chain operations, potentially allowing Indian firms to gain easier access to essential Chinese industrial components, machinery, and other supplies.
