The workshop will be held on September 22 under the chairmanship of Minister of Commerce and Industry Piyush Goyal.
The industry official said the session will focus on an overview of FTAs, ease of doing business and regulatory compliance initiatives.
Suggestions will be sought from industry associations and export promotion councils on ground-level implementation challenges and procedural bottlenecks.
