India will get zero duty benefits on 98.3% of its exports to Australia from day one and on 100% of the tariff line within five years; Tariffs on 85% of Australia’s exports to India will be eliminated immediately. The deal will benefit India’s IT industry, labor intensive sectors and students on post-study work visas.
