COMPREHENSIVE ECONOMIC PARTNERSHIP AGREEMENT
- It is a kind of free trade pact which covers negotiation on the trade in services and investment, and other areas of economic partnership.
- India has signed CEPAs with South Korea and Japan.
- It may even consider negotiation on areas such as trade facilitation and customs cooperation, competition, and Intellectual Property Rights.
