Indian participation in Project Qatar 2019 ‘doubles’ compared to last year
H.E. Mr. Ali bin Ahmed Al Kuwari, Minister of Commerce & Industry of the State of Qatar and H.E. Mr. P. Kumaran, Ambassador of India to Qatar, inaugurated the India Pavilion at the 16th Edition of Project Qatar Exhibition held at Doha Exhibition & Convention Centre (DECC) on April 29.

India’s participation in the current edition of Project Qatar has doubled in comparison to its participation in the previous edition, which is a testament to the efforts made by the Indian exporters and the Embassy. It is pertinent to mention that India-Qatar economic and commercial engagement has been steadily growing in multiple sectors. The Indian exports to Qatar have increased by 13% during 2018-19 (Apr-Feb) over the corresponding previous year. The presence of Indian products in Qatari market is likely to go up in near future due to rapid boom in the construction sector in Qatar.
