ABSTRACT:
India and Japan have significantly strengthened their economic ties, driven by their robust strategic partnership and thriving trade. This paper, titled "The Evolving Landscape of India-Japan Economic Relations: Exploring the Possibilities and Challenges," aims to comprehensively analyse the economic relationship between India and Japan in the context of the evolving geopolitical and geo-economic landscape of the Asia-Pacific region, shaped by the assertive rise of China. In the 21st century, globalization has propelled the world forward, resulting in unparalleled interconnectedness among the economies of various nations. The growing economic bonds between India and Japan have been instrumental in shaping the nature of their relationship. This article will thoroughly assess the diverse factors that have defined the financial connections between India and Japan amidst the evolving dynamics of the Asia-Pacific. Furthermore, the paper examines the potential and obstacles in expanding India-Japan economic relations, closely scrutinizing the possibilities and challenges in trade, investment, infrastructure, and regional cooperation.
