Under negotiation
India and Qatar are working toward a bilateral FTA alongside the India–GCC talks. In October 2025 the Commerce Minister said Terms of Reference were being finalised; on 30 September 2026 both sides agreed to speed up the FTA and investment treaty talks. No formal launch date was found, and Qatar was not on the Government's March 2026 list of negotiations.
