The India China Trade Council (ICTC) is a strategic bilateral platform dedicated to fostering economic, trade, and investment relationships between India and China. Functioning as an independent and non-political entity, ICTC brings together businesses, policymakers, academic institutions, and industry associations to enhance cooperation, reduce trade barriers, and build sustainable commercial partnerships across both nations.
Established in response to the growing need for structured engagement between Asia’s two largest economies, ICTC plays a vital role in enabling access to new markets, navigating regulatory frameworks, and bridging cultural and business practices.
At ICTC, our purpose is to create a collaborative ecosystem that facilitates real-time trade solutions, business dialogues, and market expansion strategies between India and China. We serve as the trusted interface between the private sector and regulatory authorities, empowering businesses to grow beyond borders.
