What happened
The 14th Meeting of the India-UAE High Level Joint Task Force on Investments was held in Mumbai on September 28, 2026, co-chaired by Piyush Goyal, India's Commerce and Industry Minister, and Sheikh Hamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Managing Director of Abu Dhabi Investment Authority (ADIA). The discussions focused on expanding bilateral investment flows and exploring new areas of collaboration between the two nations. The two sides also identified six specific areas for deeper cooperation in the maritime sector: ship ownership, modern ports, ship manufacturing, ship repair and maintenance, shipbreaking, and container manufacturing.
Why it matters
The meeting utilized the Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement (CEPA) as a landmark framework to drive trade and investment. The partnership aims to deepen ties through initiatives including energy discussions and increased UAE investment in India. A working group will be established to lead the engagement on the identified maritime sector cooperation areas.
