Brazil and India are important economic and geopolitical partners. This article studies the trends of exports and imports from India to Brazil, the composition of exports and imports, opportunities of China+1 in the Brazilian Market, sectoral opportunities and threats concerning the trade relationship with Brazil, trends of trade complementarities and intensity, intra-industry trade and services and investment relationship. The article concludes that exports to Brazil are driven by the growth of few products and its composition is not vastly different from what is exported to the World. China+1 has immense opportunity but India seems to be losing competitiveness in those products. Textiles and Chemicals have huge opportunities while Footwear and Agriculture face threats. Intra-industry trade between the two is not strong enough. Trade Intensity has grown much more than the growth in trade complementariness. Brazil is a net services importer country while India is a net services exporting country. Reproduced
