Corset Wholesale Ltd Welcomes India–UK Free Trade Agreement: Duty-Free, Factory-Direct Corsets for UK Buyers from 15 July 2026

Gurgaon (Haryana), India — 21 June 2026 — Corset Wholesale Ltd, the world's largest B2B platform dedicated to corsets and corset fashion, today welcomed the entry into force of the India–UK Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement (CETA) on 15 July 2026, which removes import duties of up to 12% on textiles and clothing entering the United Kingdom from India.

Under CETA — confirmed by both governments at the G7 Summit and effective 15 July — approximately 99% of Indian exports gain duty-free access to the UK market. For apparel, the elimination of tariffs of up to 12% directly lowers landed costs for UK boutiques, retailers and brands sourcing from Indian manufacturers.

As a factory-direct manufacturer operating since 2005, Corset Wholesale Ltd is positioned to pass this duty saving straight to its UK buyers. Because the company owns its production rather than working through intermediaries, the full benefit of zero-duty access reaches wholesale customers as sharper pricing — with no compromise on craftsmanship.

"This agreement levels the playing field for Indian manufacturers and rewards businesses that produce at source," said Suman Bharti, Founder of Corset Wholesale Ltd. "We have manufactured in India for two decades. From July 15, our UK partners can buy factory-direct corsets and corset dresses with zero import duty — clearer pricing, better margins, and the same quality they rely on."

What this means for UK wholesale buyers

To claim duty-free entry, shipments require a valid certificate of origin and must meet the agreement's rules-of-origin criteria for Indian value-addition — requirements Corset Wholesale Ltd manages as part of its standard export process. For UK boutiques and brands, that means the duty saving arrives as lower landed cost and stronger margins, with no extra paperwork on their side.

The company serves boutiques, costume designers, e-commerce retailers and fashion brands across more than 30 countries, with 1,000+ active wholesale SKUs spanning steel-boned corsets, corset dresses, Rococo and Victorian styles, and Steampunk and Gothic collections. UK buyers can browse and order in GBP via the dedicated UK wholesale page.
