India extends duty-free market access to Afghanistan

India has extended duty-free market access to Afghanistan as part of its economic package for least developed countries (LDCs). Under the scheme, the import of most products from the neighbouring country will be allowed at zero duty. India's Duty-Free Tariff Preference (DFTP) scheme, launched by Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh in 2008, provides preferential duty access on products comprising 92.5 per cent of global LDC exports. AIR correspondent reports, the countries which have been notified under the DFTP scheme include Cambodia, Tanzania, Uganda, Rwanda and Madagascar.
