India and China are two of the fastest growing economies in the world. They share historical and civilizational ties, and have seen rapid reform and growth, with China having started its reforms in the 1970s and India in the 1990s. With a combined population of over two and a half billion, they are among the largest markets today, where they share many common interests and positions on global issues. Both are looking to enhance their relationship and investments in agriculture, pharmaceuticals, IT services, start-ups, small and medium enterprises (SMEs), and tourism. China ranks among the fast growing foreign direct investors in India and bilateral trade has crossed US $80 billion. Despite border and trade imbalance issues, both are looking at greater bilateral engagement on economic and geopolitical areas.
