The legal review of the India-UK Free Trade Agreement (FTA) is progressing at a brisk pace, with the deal expected to be signed by the end of July, a senior official confirmed on Tuesday, reported the PTI.

It will remove taxes on the export of labour-intensive products such as leather, footwear and clothing, while making imports of whisky and cars from Britain cheaper, in a bid to double trade between the two huge economies in the world.

India and Britain, the world's fifth and sixth-largest economies, concluded the deal after three years of on-off negotiations, as per the PTI.
